What two decimals are equivalent to 4.400

Zina [86]

Answer:

4.4

4.40

Step-by-step explanation:

These two decimals above are equivalent to 4.400 because no matter the amount of zeroes, the numbers are the same. For example, 4.400 is also equivalent to 4.400000000000000000000000000000000. As long as the "4's" maintain the same place (ones place and tens place), the decimals will be congruent to one another.

quester [9]

Answer:

f(g(h(x))) = (sqrt(x) - 1)^4 + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^4 + 4

g(x) = x - 1

h(x) = sqrt(x)

g(h(x)) = sqrt(x) - 1

f(g(h(x))) = (sqrt(x) - 1)^4 + 4

What is the quotient when 4x3 + 2x + 7 is divided by x + 3?

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The quotient of this division is $(4x^2 -12x + 38)$ . The remainder here would be $-26$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerator $4x^3 + 2x + 7$ is a polynomial about $x$ with degree $3$ .

The divisor $x + 3$ is a polynomial, also about $x$ , but with degree $1$ .

By the division algorithm, the quotient should be of degree $3 - 1 = 2$ , while the remainder shall be of degree $1 - 1 = 0$ (i.e., the remainder would be a constant.) Let the quotient be $a\,x^2 + b\, x + c$ with coefficients $a$ , $b$ , and $c$ .

$4x^3 + 2x + 7 = \left(a\,x^2 + b\, x + c\right)(x + 3)$ .

Start by finding the first coefficient of the quotient.

The degree-three term on the left-hand side is $4 x^3$ . On the right-hand side, that would be $a\, x^3$ . Hence $a = 4$ .

Now, given that $a = 4$ , rewrite the right-hand side:

$\begin{aligned}&\left(4\,x^2 + b\, x + c\right)(x + 3) \cr =& \left(4x^2 + (b\, x + c)\right)(x + 3) \cr =& 4x^2(x + 3) + (bx + c)(x + 3) \cr =& 4x^3 + 12x^2 + (bx + c)(x + 3)\end{aligned}$ .

Hence:

$4x^3 + 2x + 7 = 4x^3 + 12x^2 + (b\,x + c)(x + 3)$

Subtract $\left(4x^3 + 12x^2\right$ from both sides of the equation:

$-12x^2 + 2x + 7 = (b\,x + c)(x + 3)$ .

The term with a degree of two on the left-hand side has coefficient $(-12)$ . Since the only term on the right hand side with degree two would have coefficient $b$ , $b = -12$ .

Again, rewrite the right-hand side:

$\begin{aligned}&\left(-12 x + c\right)(x + 3) \cr =& \left(-12 x+ c\right)(x + 3) \cr =& (-12x)(x + 3) + c(x + 3) \cr =& -12x^2 -36x + (bx + c)(x + 3)\end{aligned}$ .
