Solve 5w^2+25=115, Where w is a real number.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

w=+/-4.24 or whatever could be either since its squared

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 25 so 5x^2=90. divide by 5 so w^2=18 then square root to get rid of the ^2 so w=+/-4.24

What is the measurement 345.067 mg rounded to four significant digits?

Viktor [21]

<span>count four from the first digit to the fourth one. When you see the fourth one, look at the digit after. if it is 5+ then the fourth digit increases by one. if 5- then it stays the same. 6>5 so 0 becomes 1.

Therefore the answer is 345.1mg</span>

Do you agree with the statement that " cubic functions must have at least 1 x-intercept but not more than 3, whereas quadratic f

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Yes, I agree

Step-by-step explanation:

For the cubic function

A cubic function is represented as:

$f(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d$

A cubic function may have 1, 2 or 3 x intercepts. This is shown below

For 3 x intercepts

$y = x^3 - x$

Equate y to 0

$x^3 - x = 0$

Expand

$x(x^2 - 1) = 0$

Express $x^2 - 1$ as difference of two squares

$x(x - 1)(x +1 ) = 0$

<em>x = 0 or 1 or -1</em>

For 2 x intercepts

$y = x^3 - x$

$y =(x-5)^2)(x+7)$

Equate y to 0

$(x-5)^2(x+7) = 0$

Expand

$(x-5)(x-5)(x+7) = 0$

<em>x= 5 or x = -7</em>

For 1 x intercept

$y = x^3$

Equate y to 0

$x^3 = 0$

Take cube roots of both sides

$x = 0$

It has been shown above that a cubic function may have 1, 2 or 3.

So, I agree to the statement

For the quadratic function

A quadratic function will not have any x intercept when the function can not be factorized;

E.g.

$y = x^2 + x + 17$

<em>The above function has no x intercept.</em>

A quadratic function will have at least 1 x intercept when the function can be factorized;

E.g.

$y = x^2- 6x + 9$

Equate y to 0

$x^2- 6x + 9 = 0$

Expand

$x^2 - 3x - 3x + 9 = 0$

$(x - 3)(x-3) = 0$

$x = 3$

We've shown that a quadratic may have no x intercept, and it may also have x intercept(s)

Hence, I agree to both statement
