Answer:
{1, (-1±√17)/2}
Step-by-step explanation:
There are formulas for the real and/or complex roots of a cubic, but they are so complicated that they are rarely used. Instead, various other strategies are employed. My favorite is the simplest--let a graphing calculator show you the zeros.
___
Descartes observed that the sign changes in the coefficients can tell you the number of real roots. This expression has two sign changes (+-+), so has 0 or 2 positive real roots. If the odd-degree terms have their signs changed, there is only one sign change (-++), so one negative real root.
It can also be informative to add the coefficients in both cases--as is, and with the odd-degree term signs changed. Here, the sum is zero in the first case, so we know immediately that x=1 is a zero of the expression. That is sufficient to help us reduce the problem to finding the zeros of the remaining quadratic factor.
__
Using synthetic division (or polynomial long division) to factor out x-1 (after removing the common factor of 4), we find the remaining quadratic factor to be x²+x-4.
The zeros of this quadratic factor can be found using the quadratic formula:
a=1, b=1, c=-4
x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) = (-1±√1+16)/2
x = (-1 ±√17)2
The zeros are 1 and (-1±√17)/2.
_____
The graph shows the zeros of the expression. It also shows the quadratic after dividing out the factor (x-1). The vertex of that quadratic can be used to find the remaining solutions exactly: -0.5 ± √4.25.
__
The given expression factors as ...
4(x -1)(x² +x -4)
It's 57 and 59
Call (n) is the first odd interger => the second odd interger is (n+2)
=> n + (n + 2) = 116
=> n + n + 2 = 116
=> 2n = 114
=> n = 57
First odd interger is 57 and the second odd interger is 59 .
Sorry my English so bad =)))
Pictures always help; see the one I've attached for reference.
Call the first vector (from HQ to the supply drop) u and the second vector (from supply drop to medics) v. We then want to find w, the vector from the medics to HQ, which corresponds to the vector -(u + v). (This is because u + v is the vector pointing from HQ to the medics; we're talking about the one in the opposite direction.)
Write the vectors in horizontal/vertical component form:
u = (125 km) (cos 235º x + sin 235º y) = (-71.70 x - 102.39 y) km
v = (75 km) (cos 110º x + sin 110º y) = (-25.65 x + 70.48 y) km
Why these angles?
- "55 degrees south of west" is 235º; due west is 180º from the positive horizontal axis, and you add 55º to this
- "20 degrees west of north" is 110º; due north is 90º, so add 20º to this
Add the vectors:
u + v = (-97.35 x - 31.92 y) km
Multiply by -1 to get the vector w:
w = -(u + v) = (97.35 x + 31.92 y) km
The distance covered by this vector is equal to its magnitude:
||w|| = √((97.35 km)^2 + (31.92 km)^2) = 102.45 km
The direction <em>θ</em> is given by
tan<em>θ</em> = (31.92 km)/(97.35 km) ==> <em>θ</em> = 18.15º
