f(x) = -x^6 -x^5 - x^4 - 4x^3 - 12x^2 + 12

There is only one change of sign, so there is only one possible positive root.

f(-x) = -(-x)^6 -(-x)^5 - (-x)^4 - 4(-x)^3 - 12(-x)^2 + 12\\
f(-x) = -x^6 +x^5 - x^4 + 4x^3 - 12x^2 + 12

There are five changes of signs, so there are 5,3 or 1 possible negative roots.

The number of complex roots can be equal to 4,2 or 0 (degree of a polynomial - possible positive roots - possible negative roots)

Answer:

Positive: 2 or 0; negative: 4, 2, or 0; complex: 6, 4, 2, or 0

Step-by-step explanation:

I am pretty sure this is right and I know that there are 2 sigh changes so there are for sure 2 or 0 positive

MULTIPLE CHOICE A triangle has an angle that measures 41° and an angle
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

117

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180

Let the third angle be 'x'

41 + 22 + x = 180

     63 + x = 180

             x = 180 - 63

            x = 117

Which statements are true about the graph of y ≤ 3x + 1 and y ≥ –x + 2? Check all that apply. 1.The slope of one boundary line i
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

2.Both boundary lines are solid.

3.A solution to the system is (1, 3)

5.The boundary lines intersect.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y\leq 3x+1 ----> inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area below the solid line y=3x+1

The slope of the solid line is 3

The point (1,3) is  a solution of inequality A (lie in the shaded area of the solution set)

y\geq -x+2 ----> inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area above the solid line y=-x+2

The slope of the solid line is -1

The point (1,3) is a solution of inequality B (lie in the shaded area of the solution set)

The solution of the system of inequalities is the shaded area between the two solids lines

see the attached figure

<u><em>Verify each statement</em></u>

1.The slope of one boundary line is 2

The statement is False

2.Both boundary lines are solid.

The statement is True

3.A solution to the system is (1, 3)

The statement is True

4.Both inequalities are shaded below the boundary lines

The statement is False

5.The boundary lines intersect.

The statement is True

The intersection point is (0.25,1.75)
