Find a factorization of x² + 2x³ + 7x² - 6x + 44, given that<br> −2+i√√7 and 1 - i√/3 are roots.
Levart [38]

A factorization of x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 is (x^2+4x+11)(x^2-2x+4).

<h3>What are the properties of roots of a polynomial?</h3>
  • The maximum number of roots of a polynomial of degree n is n.
  • For a polynomial with real coefficients, the roots can be real or complex.
  • The complex roots of a polynomial with real coefficients always exist in a pair of conjugate numbers i.e., if a+ib is a root, then a-ib is also a root.

If the roots of the polynomial p(x)=ax^4+bx^3+cx^2+dx+e are r_1,r_2,r_3,r_4, then it can be factorized as p(x)=(x-r_1)(x-r_2)(x-r_3)(x-r_4).

Here, we are to find a factorization of p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44. Also, given that -2+i\sqrt{7} and 1-i\sqrt{3} are roots of the polynomial.

Since p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 is a polynomial with real coefficients, so each complex root exists in a pair of conjugates.

Hence, -2-i\sqrt{7} and 1+i\sqrt{3} are also roots of the given polynomial.

Thus, all the four roots of the polynomial p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44, are: r_1=-2+i\sqrt{7}, r_2=-2-i\sqrt{7}, r_3=1-i\sqrt{3}, r_4=1+i\sqrt{3}.

So, the polynomial p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 can be factorized as follows:

\{x-(-2+i\sqrt{7})\}\{x-(-2-i\sqrt{7})\}\{x-(1-i\sqrt{3})\}\{x-(1+i\sqrt{3})\}\\=(x+2-i\sqrt{7})(x+2+i\sqrt{7})(x-1+i\sqrt{3})(x-1-i\sqrt{3})\\=\{(x+2)^2+7\}\{(x-1)^2+3\}\hspace{1cm} [\because (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2]\\=(x^2+4x+4+7)(x^2-2x+1+3)\\=(x^2+4x+11)(x^2-2x+4)

Therefore, a factorization of x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 is (x^2+4x+11)(x^2-2x+4).

How much string would you need to go around of a hat shaped like a cone if the radius is 4 inches? ( Use 3.14 for pi)
Paul [167]
The answer is b. 25.12
because we are finding the amount of rope to go around the circle, we are looking for the circumfrence of the circle, and the formula for the circumfrence of the circle is diameter(pi). because the radius of the circle is 4 inches, the diameter iss 8 inches because the diameter is 2(radius) and using multiplication, we can find the the circumfrence to be 25.12 inches

sally gave her brother 3.95 in quarters and dimes. if the number of quarters is 6 more then the number of dimes, how many quarte
iragen [17]
Let q be the number of 25 cent coins.
Let d be the number of 10 cent coins.
0.25q+0.10d= 3.95...(1)
q-d=6...(2)

(2)->    q-d= 6
       q-d+d= 6+d
              q= 6+d...(2a)

(2a)-> (1)      0.25q+0.10d=3.95
              0.25(6+d)=0.10d= 3.95
           1.95+0.25d+0.10d= 3.95
                               0.35d= 3.95-1.5
                       0.35d/0.35= 2.45/0.35
                                      d= 7...(3)

(3)->(2)     q-d= 6
                 q-7= 6
                    q=6+7
                    q= 13
There are 13 quarters and 7 dimes.
