Answer:

A) (x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 5x + 6

=(x +3)(x +2)

so (x+3) and (x+2) are the factors

Determine whether the equation x^3 - 3x + 8 = 0 has any real root in the interval [0, 1]. Justify your answer.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

The equation does not have a real root in the interval $\rm [0,1]$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make use of the intermediate value theorem.

The theorem states that if $f$ is a continuous function whose domain is the interval [a, b], then it takes on any value between f(a) and f(b) at some point within the interval. There are two corollaries:

If a continuous function has values of opposite sign inside an interval, then it has a root in that interval. This is also known as Bolzano's theorem.
The image of a continuous function over an interval is itself an interval.

Of course, in our case, we will make use of the first one.

First, we need to proof that our function is continues in $\rm [0,1]$ , which it is since every polynomial is a continuous function on the entire line of real numbers. Then, we can apply the first corollary to the interval $\rm [0,1]$ , which means to evaluate the equation in 0 and 1:

$f(x)=x^3-3x+8\\f(0)=8\\f(1)=6$

Since both values have the same sign, positive in this case, we can say that by virtue of the first corollary of the intermediate value theorem the equation does not have a real root in the interval $\rm [0,1]$ . I attached a plot of the equation in the interval $\rm [-2,2]$ where you can clearly observe how the graph does not cross the x-axis in the interval.

Learning Task 3. Find the equation of the line. Do it in your notebook.

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

1) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 5\cdot x +9$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-5\cdot x + y = 9$ .

2) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot x +\frac{14}{5}$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +5\cdot y = 14$ .

3) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 3\cdot x +4$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-3\cdot x +y = 4$ .

4) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 2\cdot x + 6$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +y = 6$ .

5) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{5}{6}\cdot x -\frac{7}{6}$ . The equation of the line in standard from is $-5\cdot x + 6\cdot y = -7$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We begin with the slope-intercept form and substitute all known values and calculate the y-intercept: ( $m = 5$ , $x = -1$ , $y = 4$ )

$4 = (5)\cdot (-1)+b$

$4 = -5 +b$

$b = 9$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 5\cdot x +9$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-5\cdot x + y = 9$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-5\cdot x + y = 9$ .

2) We begin with a system of linear equations based on the slope-intercept form: ( $x_{1} = 3$ , $y_{1} = 4$ , $x_{2} = -2$ , $y_{2} = 2$ )

$3\cdot m + b = 4$ (Eq. 1)

$-2\cdot m + b = 2$ (Eq. 2)

From (Eq. 1), we find that:

$b = 4-3\cdot m$

And by substituting on (Eq. 2), we conclude that slope of the equation of the line is:

$-2\cdot m +4-3\cdot m = 2$

$-5\cdot m = -2$

$m = \frac{2}{5}$

And from (Eq. 1) we find that the y-Intercept is:

$b=4-3\cdot \left(\frac{2}{5} \right)$

$b = 4-\frac{6}{5}$

$b = \frac{14}{5}$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot x +\frac{14}{5}$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-\frac{2}{5}\cdot x +y = \frac{14}{5}$

$-2\cdot x +5\cdot y = 14$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +5\cdot y = 14$ .

3) By using the slope-intercept form, we obtain the equation of the line by direct substitution: ( $m = 3$ , $b = 4$ )

$y = 3\cdot x +4$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 3\cdot x +4$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-3\cdot x +y = 4$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-3\cdot x +y = 4$ .

4) We begin with a system of linear equations based on the slope-intercept form: ( $x_{1} = -3$ , $y_{1} = 0$ , $x_{2} = 0$ , $y_{2} = 6$ )

$-3\cdot m + b = 0$ (Eq. 3)

$b = 6$ (Eq. 4)

By applying (Eq. 4) on (Eq. 3), we find that the slope of the equation of the line is:

$-3\cdot m+6 = 0$

$3\cdot m = 6$

$m = 2$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 2\cdot x + 6$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-2\cdot x +y = 6$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +y = 6$ .

5) We begin with a system of linear equations based on the slope-intercept form: ( $x_{1} = -1$ , $y_{1} = -2$ , $x_{2} = 5$ , $y_{2} = 3$ )

$-m+b = -2$ (Eq. 5)

$5\cdot m +b = 3$ (Eq. 6)

From (Eq. 5), we find that:

$b = -2+m$

And by substituting on (Eq. 6), we conclude that slope of the equation of the line is:

$5\cdot m -2+m = 3$

$6\cdot m = 5$

$m = \frac{5}{6}$

And from (Eq. 5) we find that the y-Intercept is:

$b = -2+\frac{5}{6}$

$b = -\frac{7}{6}$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{5}{6}\cdot x -\frac{7}{6}$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-\frac{5}{6}\cdot x +y =-\frac{7}{6}$

$-5\cdot x + 6\cdot y = -7$

The equation of the line in standard from is $-5\cdot x + 6\cdot y = -7$ .

A radio station requires DJs to play 2 commercials for every 10 songs they play.What is the unit rate of songs to commercial?

Wittaler [7]

The DJs unit rate is 5 songs for every 1 commercial.

I found this by dividing both the commercials and the songs by their greatest common factor, or 2.
