Consider the polynomials p(x) = 3x + 27x^2 and q(x)= 2 . Find the x -coordinate(s) of the point(s) of intersection of these two

polynomials. What is the sum of these x -coordinates? (If there is only one point of intersection, give the corresponding x -coordinate.)

Answer:

The x -coordinate(s) of the point(s) of intersection of these two polynomials are x=\frac{2}{9}\approx0.2222,\:x=-\frac{1}{3}\approx-0.3333

The sum of these x -coordinates is \frac{2}{9}+\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)=-\frac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

The intersections of the two polynomials, p(x) and q(x), are the roots of the equation p(x) = q(x).

Thus, 3x + 27x^2=2 and we solve for x

3x+27x^2-2=2-2\\27x^2+3x-2=0\\\left(27x^2-6x\right)+\left(9x-2\right)\\3x\left(9x-2\right)+\left(9x-2\right)\\\left(9x-2\right)\left(3x+1\right)=0

Using Zero Factor Theorem: = 0 if and only if = 0 or = 0

9x-2=0\\9x=2\\x=\frac{2}{9}

3x+1=0\\3x=-1\\x=-\frac{1}{3}

The solutions are:

x=\frac{2}{9}\approx0.2222,\:x=-\frac{1}{3}\approx-0.3333

The sum of these x -coordinates is

\frac{2}{9}+\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)=-\frac{1}{9}

We can check our work with the graph of the two polynomials.

okay so what you're gonna do is find the lcm (least common multiple) of four and seven (the days y'all water the plants.)

lemme get it started for ya.

7: 7, 14, 21...

4: 4, 8, 12, 16...

and once you find a number that they both have, it's your answer.

#31 please help and show work thank you in advance

The base price of the car is about $22,196 because:

x= major options package

10x + x = 24,416

*the 10x is the price of the car

This then simplifies to

11x = 24,416 

use division.

The destination charge is not needed unless you want to check your answer. If you have to then you would do the same thing. The equation would be:

y= destination charge

5y + y = 24,416

Hope this helps.

How to solve x^2&gt;4x+3
Papessa [141]
Treat this as you would the quadratic equation x^2 - 4x - 3 + 0.   Solve this by completing the square:

x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 - 7 = 0

(x^2 - 4x + 4) = 11

    (x-2)^2 = 11, and so x-2 = plus or minus sqrt(11).

Graph this, using a dashed curve (not a solid curve).  Then shade the coordinate plane ABOVE the graph.
