Answer:
{1, (-1±√17)/2}
Step-by-step explanation:
There are formulas for the real and/or complex roots of a cubic, but they are so complicated that they are rarely used. Instead, various other strategies are employed. My favorite is the simplest--let a graphing calculator show you the zeros.
___
Descartes observed that the sign changes in the coefficients can tell you the number of real roots. This expression has two sign changes (+-+), so has 0 or 2 positive real roots. If the odd-degree terms have their signs changed, there is only one sign change (-++), so one negative real root.
It can also be informative to add the coefficients in both cases--as is, and with the odd-degree term signs changed. Here, the sum is zero in the first case, so we know immediately that x=1 is a zero of the expression. That is sufficient to help us reduce the problem to finding the zeros of the remaining quadratic factor.
__
Using synthetic division (or polynomial long division) to factor out x-1 (after removing the common factor of 4), we find the remaining quadratic factor to be x²+x-4.
The zeros of this quadratic factor can be found using the quadratic formula:
a=1, b=1, c=-4
x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) = (-1±√1+16)/2
x = (-1 ±√17)2
The zeros are 1 and (-1±√17)/2.
_____
The graph shows the zeros of the expression. It also shows the quadratic after dividing out the factor (x-1). The vertex of that quadratic can be used to find the remaining solutions exactly: -0.5 ± √4.25.
__
The given expression factors as ...
4(x -1)(x² +x -4)
Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of the base of a cylinder is given by the formula
where
r is the radius of the circular base
If the radius is doubled
then
The new base area is
so
therefore
The new area of the base is 4 times the area of the original base
You would divide both sides by the same non-zero constant
Answer: <em>x</em> = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
If line <em>m</em> is parallel to line <em>n</em>, the two angles given will be congruent because they will be alternate exterior angles (which are congruent).
This means we will set them equal to each other and solve for <em>x</em>.
Given:
(4<em>x</em> - 23) = (2<em>x</em> + 17)
Add 23 to both sides of the equation:
4<em>x</em> = 2<em>x</em> + 40
Subtract 2<em>x</em> from both sides of the equation:
2<em>x</em> = 40
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
<em>x</em> = 20
