Answer:

$\frac{338}{99}$ is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = 3.4141.....

multiplying both sides by 100 [ since it has two repeating decimals],we get

100x 341.4141...

subtracting from the first ,we get

99x = 338

so x = $\frac{338}{99}$

Remark

I'm going to assume that it is just the 0.41 that is doing the repeating. If it is not leave me a note.

Solution

The trick is to call x = 3.4141414141 ....

then multiply by 100

100 x = 341.4141414141 ............ Now write the original decimal underneath.

<u>. . . x = 3.414141414141 ......</u>...... Subtract

99 x = 338 That's all that's left. The decimal part cancels out.

x = 338 / 99 Fractional answer.

x = 3 39/99

x = 3 13/33 If this isn't one of your answers, leave me a note.

4,200 x 4 = 16800
100 multiply x = 100x
16800 divided by 100 = 168
Commission = $168
Base salary = $257
$168 + $257 = $425

Find the fourth-degree polynomial function with zeros 4, -4, 4i , and -4i . Write the function in factored form.

Iteru [2.4K]

Given:

A fourth-degree polynomial function has zeros 4, -4, 4i , and -4i .

To find:

The fourth-degree polynomial function in factored form.

Solution:

The factor for of nth degree polynomial is:

$P(x)=(x-a_1)(x-a_2)...(x-a_n)$

Where, $a_1,a_2,...,a_n$ are n zeros of the polynomial.

It is given that a fourth-degree polynomial function has zeros 4, -4, 4i , and -4i. So, the factor form of given polynomial is:

$P(x)=(x-4)(x-(-4))(x-4i)(x-(-4i))$

$P(x)=(x-4)(x+4)(x-4i)(x+4i)$

$P(x)=(x-4)(x+4)(x^2-(4i)^2)$ $[\because a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)]$

On further simplification, we get

$P(x)=(x-4)(x+4)(x^2-4^2i^2)$

$P(x)=(x-4)(x+4)(x^2+16)$ $[\because i^2=-1]$

Therefore, the required fourth degree polynomial is $P(x)=(x-4)(x+4)(x^2+16)$ .

Someone plsss help me!!!!!

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for this problem is

Area = 1/2 base x Height

step 1) plug in what we know

5 = 1/2 base(5)

step 2) switch sides

1/2 base x 5 = 5

step 3) divide both sides by 1/2 x 5

$\frac{1/2 base( 5)}{1/2(5)}$ = $\frac{5}{1/2(5)}$

step 4) Simplify

$\frac{1/2 base (5)}{1/2 (5)}: b$

step 5) Simplify

$\frac{5}{1/2(5)}: 2$

step 6) now you have gotten the answer<u> x = 2</u>
