7. Find two consecutive even integers such that twice the smaller is

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<h3>            20 and 22</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between two consecutive even integers  is 2

and even integer is always twice some integer

So:

2x   ← smaller of numbers

2x+2  ←  larger of numbers  

2×2x     ←  twice the smaller of numbers

3(2x+2)      ←  three  times the larger

3(2x+2)-26   ← 26 less than 3 times the larger

twice the smaller is  26 less than 3 times the larger:

3(2x+2) - 26 = 2×2x

6x + 6 - 26 = 4x

       +20         +20

6x - 4x = 20

       2x = 20

2x+2 = 20 + 2 = 22        

Check:   2×20=40; 40+26 = 66; 66÷3=22

Write a polynomial function in standard form given the zeros.<br><br> -1/2, -5 + i
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

y = x³ + 10.5x² + 31x + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex roots (roots that have imaginary terms) always come in conjugate pairs.  So if one root is -5 + i, there's another root that's -5 − i.

So the polynomial is:

y = (x + 1/2) (x − (-5 + i)) (x − (-5 − i))

Distributing:

y = (x + 1/2) (x² − (-5 + i)x − (-5 − i)x + (-5 + i)(-5 − i))

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 5x − ix + 5x + ix + (-5 + i)(-5 − i))

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + (-5 + i)(-5 − i))

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + 25 + 5i − 5i − i²)

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + 25 + 1)

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + 26)

y = x(x² + 10x + 26) + 1/2(x² + 10x + 26)

y = x³ + 10x² + 26x + 1/2x² + 5x + 13

y = x³ + 10.5x² + 31x + 13
