Given the following roots build a polynomial function in standard form: -3 and +2

swat32

Answer:

f(x) = x² +x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form will look like ...

f(x) = x² +bx +c

where b is the opposite of the sum of the roots, and c is their product.

f(x) = x² -(-3+2)x +(-3)(2)

f(x) = x² +x -6

_____

Additional comment

In general, "standard form" is ax²+bx+c. In this case, the coefficient 'a' can be 1 since neither of the roots is expressed as a fraction. The sum of roots is (-b/a) and the product of roots is (c/a).

What is the value of the expression 24 + 32? (2 points)

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

now unrounded, it's easier.

24 + 32 = 56

because 4 + 2 = 6, we know to add on only a few more.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

There are 26 purple marbles in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you have to make an expression in terms of x where x represent red marbles. Given that the question says purple marbles is 2 more than 3 times the number of red marbles. So the expression is :

Let red marbles = x,

$purple = 2 + 3x$
