Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we must be able to understand and interpret the question

So let's solve

Five increased by the product of x and 3, which means

5+(x×3)=23

Always remember bracket first

5+3x=23

Substrate 5 from both sides

3x=18

Let's make x the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 3

x=6

Therefore the final answer for x is 6

Hope you understand

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + (x times 3) = 23

x times 3 = 3x

5 + 3x = 23

23 - 5 = 18

3x = 18

18/3 = 6

x = 6

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).

A reflection is a type of transformation in which a figure is: Flipped OR Turned
klasskru [66]

Answer:

flipped

Step-by-step explanation:

A reflection is a transformation representing a flip of a image. images can be reflected in a plane, line, and point. When reflecting a image/figure in a line or in a point, the image is congruent to the preimage. A reflection maps every point of a figure to an image across a fixed line.
