Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Given
x² + 5x + 6
Consider the factors of the constant term ( + 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)
The factors are 3 and 2, since
3 × 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5, hence
x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2) ← in factored form
(b)
To solve
x² + 5x + 6 = 0 ← use the factored form, that is
(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
Answer: The slope is -2 and the y-intercept is (0,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum number of roots to a polynomial of order n is n roots. Take the example of a quadratic (order 2) which can intersect the x-axis a maximum of 2 times, and similarly a cubic (order 3) 3 times maximum.
Hence for 8 intersections, minimum order = 8
Answer:
Simplify and solve and get x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3x - 1/2= 1/3 + 5/6x
2/3x - 5/6x= 1/3 + 1/2
-1/6x= 5/6
x=-5
