Answer:
y-b+am/m
Step-by-step explanation:
y-b=m(x-a)
y-b=MX-ma
mx=y-b+ma
x=y-b+ma/m
If one root of a cubic is known (and verified), then we can do a synthetic division and factor the remaining quadratic expression.
f(x)=x^3+x^2-22x-40
f(5)=125+25-22(5)-40=0 so x-5 is a factor
Now do the synthetic division
5 | +1 +1 -22 -40
--------------------
1 6 8 0
The resulting quadratic is x^2+6x+8 which can be factored into
(x+2)(x+4)
The complete factorization is therefore
f(x)=<span>x³ + x² - 22x - 40 = (x-5)(x+2)(x+4)</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the second expression to substitute for y in the first expression. Then we have ...
... 1/2x +11 = -7x^2 -9x +6
Subtracting the right side, we get
... 7x^2 +(9 1/2)x +5 = 0
Eliminating fractions by multiplying by 2, this is ...
... 14x^2 +19x +10 = 0
The discriminant of this equation will tell the number and kind of roots. For a=14, b=19, c=10, the discriminant is ...
... b^ -4ac = 19^2 -4·14·10 = 361 - 560 = -199
Since this value is negative, we know the two roots to the quadratic will be complex. There are no real solutions.
_____
The graph shows the two curves do not intersect, hence there are no values of x that will make the y-values match.
Answer:
Alonzo scored 25 points. Miguel scored 29 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
25 plus 25 is 50. Plus 4 is 54.
