Answer:
P(x) = x^4 -16x^3 +76x^2 -72x -100
Step-by-step explanation:
The two roots 1-√3 and 1+√3 give rise to the quadratic factor ...
... (x -(1-√3))(x -(1+√3)) = (x-1)^2 -(√3)^2 = x^2 -2x -2
The complex root 7-i has a conjugate that is also a root. These two roots give rise to the quadratic factor ...
... (x -(7 -i))(x -(7 +i)) = (x-7)^2 -(i)^2 = x^2 -14x +50
The product of these two quadratic factors is ...
... P(x) = (x^2 -2x -2)(x^2 -14x +50) = x^4 +x^3(-14 -2) +x^2(50 +28 -2) +x(-100+28) -100
... P(x) = x^4 -16x^3 +76x^2 -72x -100
It totals out to 4. I/3 plus 2/3 would equal 1 whole number, then add 1+2+1, you will get 4!
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the second term (12) with the first term (40), and you'll get 0.3
This is correct because you get the terms in the correct order when multiplying:
(First term: 40. Common ratio: 0.3)
40 x 0.3 = <u>12</u>
<u>12</u> x 0.3<em> </em>= <em>3.6</em>
40, <u>12</u>, <em>3.6</em>
