Answer:

x = 1, -1 + i, and -1 - i are the 3 roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The Rational Root Theorem will help us find any real roots in this 3rd degree polynomial.  The c value in that polynomia is -2 and the d value is 1 (the leading coefficient).  

If c is -2, then the factors of -2 are:

1, -1, 2, -2

If d is 1, then the factors of 1 are:

1, -1

And c/d gives us all the possible roots:

1/1, -1/1, 2/1, -2/1 which of course simplify to

1, -1 2, -2

We will now use synthetic division to find the first real root.  I will use x = 1 first.

For synthetic division:

1|   1     1     0     -2

is how it is set up.  Bring down the first number, 1, multiply it by 1 and put that product up under the second "1":

1|    1     1     0     -2

           1

     1

Now add to get

1|     1     1     0     -2

            1

      1     2

Multiply 2 by 1 and put that product up under the 0 and add:

1|     1     1     0     -2

             1     2

      1     2    2

Again multiply the 2 by 1 and put that product up undeer the -2 and add:

1|     1     1     0     -2

            1      2      2

      1     2     2      0

That remainder of 0 tells us that x = 1 is a root of that polynomial and the depressed polynomial, made up from the bold numbers, is one degree less than what it started with:

x^2+2x+2=0

This does not factor without imaginary roots, so putting it into the quadratic formula looks like this:

x=\frac{-2+/-\sqrt{4-4(1)(2)} }{2}

which simplifies to

x=\frac{-2+/-\sqrt{-4} }{2}

The square root of -4 simplifies to 2i, so

x=\frac{-2+/-2i}{2}

which reduces to

x = -1 + i and

x = -1 - i

How can you solve real-world and mathematical problems with numerical and algebraic equations and inequalities?
Oliga [24]
You can solve real-world and mathematical problems with numerical and algebraic equations and inequalities. Algebra can be applied to the temperature in different places that both change, height of a growing child over time, the speed of a car that changes over time (mph), and the age of people that increases over year. Algebra is used in parts of our everyday life, we just don’t realize it.

 find the equation of the line that is parallel to the line Y equals 3X -6 and passes through the points (1 -8). Write the equa
AlladinOne [14]
<h3>hello!</h3>

=====================================================

Parallel lines have the same slope.

So if the given line has a slope of 3, then the line parallel to it has the same slope (3)

Now, let's write the equation of the line in Point-Slope Form.

Remember, point-slope form looks like so:-

\bigstar{\underline{\boxed{\pmb{y-y1=m(x-x1)}}}

Where

y₁ is the y-coordinate of the point that the line passes through

m is the slope

x₁ is the x-coordinate of the point that the line passes through

In this case,

y₁ is equal to -8

m is equal to 3

x₁ is equal to 1

Plug in the values:

\longrightarrow\sf{y-(-8)=3(x-1)}

Simplify:

\longrightarrow\sf{y+8=3(x-1)}

and we're done!

=========================================================

Hope everything is clear; if you need any more explanation/clarification, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)
