If a polynomial function f(x)has root -2 + square root 8 and 9 what must be a factor of f(x)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rasek [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

(x+2-\sqrt{9}) , (x-2+\sqrt{9}) ,(x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that f(x) is a polynomial function.

This implies that f(x) has x terms of positive integral degrees and also rational coefficients only.

Since an irrational root is given a root of f(x), we find that its conjugate also should be a root of f(x)

i.e. If -2+\sqrt{8} is a root, then -2-\sqrt{8} is also a root.

(Because this only when multiplied will make coefficients rational)

So the factors of f(x) should be atleast

(x+2-\sqrt{9}) , (x-2+\sqrt{9}) ,(x-9)

There can be other factors also but this is compulsory

How do you solve an inequality that has a fraction (with a variable as the nemurator/demoninator
vichka [17]

Answer:

Solving with an equality is just simply the same as solving any algebra equations. If you were given a fraction, then just multiply both sides.

Example:

4 + \frac{x}{2} > 14

Subtract 4 on both sides:

4 - 4 + \frac{x}{2} > 14 - 4

\frac{x}{2} > 10

Now <em>multiply both sides by 2</em>:

\frac{x}{2} × 2 > 10 × 2

x > 20

How many pennies would be in a tower that is 10 miles<br> high?
Rufina [12.5K]
Just measure the width (or height, if you'll be stacking the pennies
a mile high) of a penny, then divide 5280 feet by whatever you find.
This is a great activity for a class, and in fact a good way to start
the project. First take one penny, and work out an answer. Then get
100 pennies, and measure them; do the same calculation to see how many
pennies it will take to make a mile. There will probably be a
difference, because you can measure 100 pennies more accurately than a
single penny. Or maybe you have a micrometer that will measure one
penny precisely. Which is better can be a good discussion starter. And
don't forget to try it in metric, too.

Just to illustrate, using a very rough estimate of a penny's width,
let's say a penny is about 3/4 inch wide. The number of pennies in a
mile will be

5280 ft 12 in 1 penny
1 mile * ------- * ----- * ------- = 5280 * 12 * 4/3 pennies
1 mi 1 ft 3/4 in

This gives about 84,480 pennies. (This method of doing calculations
with units is very helpful, and would be worth teaching.)

If we measure 100 pennies as 6 ft 1 in, we will get

5280 ft 100 pennies
1 mile * ------- * ----------- = 5280 * 100 * 12 / 73 pennies
1 mi 6 1/12 ft

This gives us 86794.5205 pennies in a mile.

How do you know if a whole number is a perfect square
kirill [66]

Answer:

you simply think of a number that when multiplied by itself it will give you that whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

let's take for instance the number 4 it's a whole number and still a perfect square because when you think of a number from 1to 10, which number when you multiply by itself will give you four apart from 2
