Jamison graphs the function ƒ(x) = x4 − x3 − 19x2 − x − 20 and sees two zeros: −4 and 5. Since this is a polynomial of degree 4

and he only sees two zeros, he determines that the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra does not apply to this equation. Is Jamison correct? Why or why not?

ANTONII [103]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Jamison is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, an nth degree polynomial has n roots.

These roots comprises of real roots and imaginary roots.

The given function is

f(x) =  {x}^{4}  -  {x}^{3}  - 19 {x}^{2} - x - 20

Based on the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, this function should have four roots.

The graph of the function only reveals real zeros and not the imaginary zeros.

So aside −4 and 5, there are two complex zeros

Place the following linear equation in slope intercept form: 6x - 4y = 9
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

y = 3/2 x - 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

bring all the y's to one side.

4y = 6x-9

divide by 4 to isolate the y

y = 6/4x - 9/4

simplify

y = 3/2 x - 9/4

A huge ice glacier in the Himalayas initially covered an area of 454545 square kilometers. Because of changing weather patterns,
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

t=-20ln\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between A, the area of the glacier in square kilometers, and t, the number of years the glacier has been melting, is modeled by the equation.:

A=45e^{-0.05t}

We want to determine the value of t for which the area, A(t)=15 square kilometers.

15=45e^{-0.05t}\\$Divide both sides by 45\\\dfrac{15}{45} =\dfrac{45e^{-0.05t}}{45}\\\dfrac{1}{3}=e^{-0.05t}\\$Take the natural logarithm of both sides\\ln\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=ln\left(e^{-0.05t}\right)\\ln\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=-0.05t\\$Divide both sides by -0.05$\\t=-\dfrac{ln\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)}{0.05} \\=-\dfrac{ln\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)}{0.05}\\t=-20ln\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)

Therefore, the time for which the area will be 15 sqyare kilometers is:

-20 ln(1/3) years.

Which statement illustrates the distributive property? <br> Please help
bogdanovich [222]
<span>It's letter C

Addition, you can have 6 + 107 = 113 </span>
<span>Commutative Property by moving: 107 + 6 = 113 </span>
<span>Associative Property by grouping: (3 + 3) + (100 + 7 ) = 113 </span>
<span>Distributive Property by allotting: 2 (3) + 107 = 113   </span>

<span>Multiplication, you can have 6 x 107 = 642 </span>
<span>Commutative Property by moving: 107 x 6 = 642 </span>
<span>Associative Property by grouping: (3 + 3) x (100 + 7 ) = 642 </span>
<span>Distributive Property by allotting: 2(3) x 107 = 642<span>

X-3x+3&lt;6 <br> Solve the problems
bixtya [17]

Answer:

x > -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

x-3x+3<6

Combine like terms

-2x+3<6

Subtract 3 from each side

-2x +3-3<6-3

-2x <3

Divide each side by -2,remembering to flip the inequality

-2x/-2 > 3/-2

x > -3/2
