Since it is a parallelogram cente at point T,
then the measure of PT is equal to the measure of TR. And the measure of QT is
equal to the measure of TS.
PT = TR
a + 4 = 2a
4 = 2a -a
a = 4
PT = TR = 8 units
QT = TS
b = 2b -3
3 = 2b – b
b = 3
<span>QT = TS = 3 units</span>
<span>The solution to the equation 2/3 A= -24 is the coordinate of point A.
2/3 A = -24
A = -24 / 2/3
A = -24 * 3/2
A = -72/2
A = -36
The solution to the equation 20=-b/0.5 is the coordinate of point B
20 = -b/0.5
20 * 0.5 = -b
10 = -b
10/-1 = -b/-1
-10 = b
A = -36 and B = -10
The distance between the two letters is 26 units. </span>
Answer:
43 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial with degree n has at most n solutions. The "at most" depends on the fact that the solutions might not all be real number.
In fact, if you use complex number, then a polynomial with degree n has exactly n roots.
So, in particular, a third-degree polynomial can have at most 3 roots.
In fact, in general, if the polynomial
has solutions
, then you can factor it as

So, a third-degree polynomial can't have 4 (or more) solutions, because otherwise you could write it as

But this is a fourth-degree polynomial.
