Answer:

a. attached graph; zero real: 2

b. p(x) = (x - 2)(x + 3 + 3i)(x + 3 - 3i)

c. the solutions are 2, -3-3i and -3+3i

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = x³ + 4x² + 6x - 36

a. Through the graph, we can see that 2 is a real zero of the polynomial p. We can also use the Rational Roots Test.

p(2) = 2³ + 4.2² + 6.2 - 36 = 8 + 16 + 12 - 36 = 0

b. Now, we can use Briott-Ruffini to find the other roots and write p as a product of linear factors.

2 |  1     4     6    -36

     1      6    18     0

x² + 6x + 18 = 0

Δ = 6² - 4.1.18 = 36 - 72 = -36 = 36i²

√Δ = 6i

x = -6±6i/2 = 2(-3±3i)/2

x' = -3-3i

x" = -3+3i

p(x) = (x - 2)(x + 3 + 3i)(x + 3 - 3i)

c. the solutions are 2, -3-3i and -3+3i

Answer: 7 pigeons sitting on the branches,  5 pigeons under the tree

=12 in total

Step-by-step explanation:

Upper branch has x pigeons, lower has y.

Top branch said: "If one of you flies up to us our number will be double yours":

Well, if one of the bottom branch flies up, the top branch will have x+1 birds and the bottom will have (y−1). The top will have double the bottom, so:

x+1=2(y−1)

Top branch said: "If one of us flies down to you, our numbers will be equal":

Now, the top branch will have x−1 and the bottom y+1. The numbers should be equal:

x−1=y+1

Answer:

The answer is x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6x - 10 = 1/3x -5 multiple both sides by 6

5x - 60 = 2x -30 move the terms

5x - 2x = -30 +60

3x = 30 divide by 3

x = 10
