Write a polynomial function f of least degree that has a leading coefficient of 1 and the given zeros -4,-2,5. write the functio

OLga [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a third degree polynomial since we have 3 zeros. We find these zeros by factoring the given polynomial. The zeros of a polynomial are where the graph of the function goes through the x-axis (where y = 0). If x = -4, the factor that gives us this value is (x + 4) = 0 and solving that for x, we get x = -4. If x = -2, the factor that gives us that value is (x + 2) = 0 and solving that for x, we get x = -2. Same for the 5. The way we find the polynomial that gave us these zeros is to go backwards from the factors and FOIL them out. That means that we need to find the product of

(x + 4)(x + 2)(x - 5). Do the first 2 terms, then multiply in the third.

$(x+4)(x+2)=x^2+2x+4x+8$ , which simplifies to

$x^2+6x+8$

No we multiply in the final factor of (x - 5):

$(x^2+6x+8)(x-5)=x^3+6x^2+8x-5x^2-30x-40$ which simplifies to

$f(x)=x^3+x^2-22x-40$

If you are aware of the method for factoring higher degree polymomials, which is to use the Rational Root Theorem and synthetic division, you will see that this factors to x = -4, -2, 5. If you know how to use your calculator, you will find the same zeros in your solving polynomials function in your apps.

A farmer has a field in the shape of a triangle. The farmer has asked the manufacturing class at your school to build a metal fe

Finger [1]

Answer:

<em>Fencing required = 1586 m</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given statements can be thought of a triangle $\triangle ABC$ as shown in the diagram attached.

A be the 1st vertex, B be the 2nd vertex and C be the 3rd vertex.

Distance between 1st and 2nd vertex, AB = 435 m

Distance between 2nd and 3rd vertex, AC = 656 m

$\angle A =49^\circ$

To find:

Fencing required for the triangular field.

Solution:

Here, we know two sides of a triangle and the angle between them.

To find the fencing or perimeter of the triangle, we need the third side.

Let us use <em>Cosine Rule </em>to find the third side.

Formula for cosine rule:

$cos A = \dfrac{b^{2}+c^{2}-a^{2}}{2bc}$

Where

a is the side opposite to $\angle A$

b is the side opposite to $\angle B$

c is the side opposite to $\angle C$

$\Rightarrow cos 49^\circ = \dfrac{656^{2}+435^{2}-BC^{2}}{2\times 435\times 656}\\\Rightarrow BC^2 = 430336+189225-2 (435)(656)cos49^\circ\\\Rightarrow BC^2 = 430336+189225-570720\times cos49^\circ\\\Rightarrow BC^2 =619561-570720\times cos49^\circ\\\Rightarrow BC \approx 495\ m$

Perimeter of the triangle = Sum of three sides = AB + BC + AC

Perimeter of the triangle = 435 + 495 + 656 = <em>1586 m</em>

<em></em>

<em>Fencing required = 1586 m</em>

Write L if it is likely to happen and U if unlikely to happen.

maria [59]

Answer:

Probabilities

Likely to happen (L) Unlikely to happen (U)

a. 4/5 5/8

b. 3/5 3/8

c. 4/5 4/7

d. 0.3 0.09

e. 5/6 and 4/5 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Probabilities in Percentages:

a. The probability of 4/5 = 80% and 5/8 = 62.5%

b. The probability of 3/8 = 37.5% and 3/5 = 60%

c. The probability of 4/5 = 80% and 4/7 = 57%

d. The probability of 0.3 = 30% and 0.09 = 9%

e. The probability of 2/3 = 67% and 4/5 = 80% and 5/6 = 83%

b) To determine the relative values of the fractional probabilities, it is best to reduce them to their fractional or percentage terms. When this is done, the relative sizes become obvious, and then, comparisons can be made.
