(a) Use the fundamental theorem of algebra to determine the number of roots for 2x^2 + 4x + 7

zysi [14]

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 = ------------------

Answer:

about 106 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the two towns can be estimated several ways. In the attachment, we chose to measure the angles on the map. Using the law of sines, we can estimate the unknown distance.

The distance can also be estimated using the Tounouse-Avaria distance as a ruler. For best results, that ruler would need to be subdivided to an appropriate level.

<h3>angle measures</h3>

The angles in the triangle can be measured using a protractor or some other tool. The attachment shows the results from a geometry program:

∠TMA ≈ 107°
∠TAM ≈ 24°

<h3>law of sines</h3>

The law of sines tells us the distances are proportional to the sines of the opposite angles:

TM/sin(TAM) = TA/sin(TMA)

TM = sin(24°)×(250 km)/sin(107°) ≈ 106.3 km

The distance from Tounouse to Mt. Monotti is estimated to be about 106 km.

<em>Alternate solution</em>

Using a compass or dividers to project the TM distance onto TA, we find it is between 0.4 and 0.5 of the TA distance. The difference between 2×TM and TA can be estimated to be about 0.4×TM. That is, ...

TM ≈ TA/2.4 ≈ (250 km)/2.4 ≈ 104.2 km

This estimate is consistent with the one found using angle measures.
