I remember dis, yey

so if a polynomial has roots r_1, r_2, r_3, it can be factored into
f(x)=a(x-r_1)^b(x-r_2)^c(x-r_3)^d where a,b,c,d are constants

also, if a polynomial has rational coefients and a+bi is a root, then a-bi must also be a root


so our roots we need are
4,16, 1+9i and 1-9i

so assuming multiplity 1 (that means we have something like [/tex]f(x)=a(x-r_1)^1(x-r_2)^1(x-r_3)^1[/tex])

we get that your function is
P(x)=(x-4)(x-16)(x-(1+9i))(x-(1-9i)) which simplifies to
P(x)=(x-4)(x-16)(x-1-9i)(x-1+9i) which expands to
P(x)=x^4-22x^3+186x^2-1768x+5248

Bx-6y=18 and 2x-3y=9
Sloan [31]
X - 6y=18     
2x-3y=9    |*-2

   x -6y=18
-4x+6y=-18
----------------
-3x=0, x=0

2x-3y=9
2*0-3y=9
-3y=9, y=-9/3, y= -3

I don't understand this problem...<br> 1/4 x (-12)=
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying a positive number with a negative number, the product will <u>always</u> be negative. First, let's solve the problem disregarding the negative sign.

  • \frac{1}{4} * 12
  • \frac{12}{4}
  • 3

Now that we know the product of 1/4 x 12 is 3, we can assume that the product of 1/4 x -12 is -3.
