Answer:

a. two (distinct) real solutions.

c = 3, x=¨{-1,-3}

b. two complex solutions

c = 17, x={-2+sqrt(13)i, -2-sqrt(13)i}

c. two coincident roots (i.e. one real solution)

c=4, x = {-2}, or x = {-2, -2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x^2+4x+c =0

a. two (distinct) real solutions.

c = 3

(x+1)(x+3) = 0

x=¨{-1,-3}

b. two complex solutions

c = 17

x^2+4x+17=0

does not have real factors.

x={-2+sqrt(13)i, -2-sqrt(13)i}

c. two coincident roots (i.e. one real solution)

c=4

x^2+4x+4=0 => (x+2)^2 = 0 => perfect square

x = {-2}, or x = {-2, -2}

According to the rational root theorem, what are all the potential rational roots of f(x)= 5x^3-7x+11
Tems11 [23]

The rational root theorem states that the rational roots of a polynomial can only be in the form p/q, where p divides the constant term, and q divides the leading term.

In your case, both the leading term 5 and the constant term 11 are primes, so their only divisors are 1 and themselves.

So, the only feasible solutions are

\pm\dfrac{11}{5},\quad\pm 11,\quad \pm\dfrac{1}{5}, \pm 1

For the record, in this case, none of the feasible solutions are actually a root of the polynomial.

A muffin recipe calls for 2/5 tablespoons of vanilla extract for 6 muffins. Arthur is making 18 muffins. How much vanilla extrac
GuDViN [60]
2/5 tablespoons of vanilla extract ... 6 muffins
x tablespoons of vanilla extract = ? ... 18 muffins

If you would like to know how much vanilla extract does he need, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x * 6 = 18 * 2/5
x * 6 = 36/5    /6
x = 36/5 / 6
x = 6/5 = 1 1/5

Result: Arthur will need 1 1/5 tablespoons of vanilla extract for 18 muffins.
