Answer:

$x=-1,\:x=-7,\:x=i,\:x=-i$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the equation

$x^4+8x^3+8x^2+8x+7=0$

Solving

$x^4+8x^3+8x^2+8x+7$

$\mathrm{Factor\:}x^4+8x^3+8x^2+8x+7:\quad \left(x+1\right)\left(x+7\right)\left(x^2+1\right)$

$\mathrm{Use\:the\:rational\:root\:theorem}$

$a_0=7,\:\quad a_n=1$

$\mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_0:\quad 1,\:7,\:\quad \mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_n:\quad 1$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:check\:the\:following\:rational\:numbers:\quad }\pm \frac{1,\:7}{1}$

$-\frac{1}{1}\mathrm{\:is\:a\:root\:of\:the\:expression,\:so\:factor\:out\:}x+1$

$=\left(x+1\right)\frac{x^4+8x^3+8x^2+8x+7}{x+1}...[A]$

Solving

$\frac{x^4+8x^3+8x^2+8x+7}{x+1}$

$=x^3+7x^2+x+7$

Putting $\frac{x^4+8x^3+8x^2+8x+7}{x+1}$ = $x^3+7x^2+x+7$ in equation [A]

So,

$\left(x+1\right)\frac{x^4+8x^3+8x^2+8x+7}{x+1}...[A]$

$=\left(x+1\right)x^3+7x^2+x+7$

$x^3+7x^2+x+7=\left(x+7\right)\left(x^2+1\right)$

So,

Equation [A] becomes

$=\left(x+1\right)\left(x+7\right)\left(x^2+1\right)$

So, the polynomial equation becomes

$\left(x+1\right)\left(x+7\right)\left(x^2+1\right)=0$

$\mathrm{Using\:the\:Zero\:Factor\:Principle:\quad \:If}\:ab=0\:\mathrm{then}\:a=0\:\mathrm{or}\:b=0\:\left(\mathrm{or\:both}\:a=0\:\mathrm{and}\:b=0\right)$ $\mathrm{Solve\:}\:x+1=0:\quad x=-1$

$\mathrm{Solve\:}\:x+7=0:\quad x=-7$

$\mathrm{Solve\:}\:x^2+1=0:\quad x=i,\:x=-i$

$\mathrm{The\:solutions\:are}$

$x=-1,\:x=-7,\:x=i,\:x=-i$

Please answer this correctly without making mistakes

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

16 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance from Washington to Stamford = distance from Washington to Salem + distance from Salem to Stamford = 10.3 km + 11.9 km = 22.2 km

Distance from Washington to Oakdele = 6.2 km

Required: the difference between the distance from Washington to Stamford and from Washington to Oakdele

Solution:

Distance from Washington to Stamford = 22.2 km

Distance from Washington to Oakdele = 6.2 km

The difference = 22.2 km - 6.2 km = 16 km

Therefore, from Washington, it is 16 km farther to Stamford than to Oakdele.

Are the two figures below similar? If so, how do you know?

artcher [175]

No because the scale factor is inconsistent while it would be neccecary to be consistent if it was similar. 19.9/15.3=1.3 while 29/25=1.16 which proves that they have an inconsistent scale factor.

5 squirrels were found to have an average weight of 8.9 ounces with a sample standard deviation is 0.9. Find the 95% confidence

stira [4]

Answer: ( 8.11 , 9.69)

the 95% confidence interval of the true mean weight

= ( 8.11 , 9.69)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 8.9

Standard deviation r = 0.9

Number of samples n = 5

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

8.9+/-1.96(0.9/√5)

8.9+/-1.96(0.4025)

8.9+/- 0.79

= ( 8.11 , 9.69)

Therefore at 95% confidence interval (a,b) = ( 8.11 , 9.69)
