the distance between points Y and Z
Answer:
fourth option
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = (x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7)
To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is
(x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7
x- intercepts are (- 1, 0 ), (- 4, 0 ), (7, 0 )
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A 2nd order polynomial such as this one will have 2 roots; a 3rd order polynomial 3 roots, and so on.
The quadratic formula is one of the faster ways (in this situation, at least) in which to find the roots. From 2x^2 + 4x + 7 we get a = 2, b = 4 and c = 7.
Then the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or, here, 4^2 - 4(2)(7), or -40. Because the discriminant is negative, we know that the roots will be complex and unequal.
Using the quadratic formula:
-4 ±√[-40] -4 ± 2i√10
x = ------------------ = ------------------
4 4
-2 ± i√10
Thus, the roots are x = ------------------
