Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this systematically:

Four numbers: a, b, c, d

Whose mean is 85: \frac{a + b + c + d}{4} = 85

Whose largest number is 97: \frac{a + b + c + 97}{4} = 85

Lets solve for the other numbers:

a+b+c+97 = 85*4 = 340

340 - 97 = 243

a+b+c = 243

at this point it doesn't matter what the numbers are, they just need to add up to 243.

We can do 243÷3=81, which is our answer

If a polynomial function f(x) has roots -8, 1, and 6i, what must also be a root of f(x)?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

it must also have the root : - 6i

Step-by-step explanation:

If a polynomial is expressed with real coefficients (which must be the case if it is a function f(x) in the Real coordinate system), then if it has a complex root "a+bi", it must also have for root the conjugate of that complex root.

This is because in order to render a polynomial with Real coefficients, the binomial factor  (x - (a+bi)) originated using the complex root would be able to eliminate the imaginary unit, only when multiplied by the binomial factor generated by its conjugate: (x - (a-bi)). This is shown below:

(x-(a+bi))*(x-(a-bi))=\\(x-a-bi)*(x-a+bi)=\\([x-a]-bi)*([x-a]+bi)=\\(x-a)^2-(bi)^2=\\(x-a)^2-b^2(-1)=\\(x-a)^2+b^2

where the imaginary unit has disappeared, making the expression real.

So in our case, a+bi is -6i (real part a=0, and imaginary part b=-6)

Then, the conjugate of this root would be: +6i, giving us the other complex root that also may be present in the real polynomial we are dealing with.
