Write the polynomial of least degree with roots -2, 0, 1.

Mathematics

joja [24]3 years ago

So since -2, 0, 1 are the roots:

Therefore  x = -2,  x = 0 ,  x = 1

Implies that:

x = 2        x - 2 = 0

x = 0          x = 0

x = 1        x - 1 = 0


Therefore    (x - 2)x(x - 1) = 0

(x - 2)(x - 1) =   x(x - 1) - 2(x - 1) =  x² - x - 2x + 2 = x² - 3x + 2

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

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

(x² - 3x + 2)x = 0

x*x² - x*3x + x*2 = 0

x³ - 3x² + 2x = 0

This is the polynomial with the least degree, because it possible for another polynomial with higher power to still have the same root.

 x³ - 3x² + 2x = 0    is the polynomial.

I hope this helps.

Ghani is going to use these instructions for fizzy drinks 5 parts lme juise 3 parts lemonade he thinks he has 300ml of lime juse
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The greatest amount of fizzy drink he can make is 480 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

The ingredients for a fizzzy drink is 5 parts lime juice and 3 parts lemonade

Therefore, we have a total portion of 5 + 3 = 8 parts

Since there ar more parts of lime juice per fizzy drink, we calculate based on lime juice

Also dividing the proportions by we get

5/5 part lime juice and 3/5 parts lemonade or

1 part lime juice and 3/5 parts lemonade or

Thus we have 300 ml lime juice and 3/5× 300 ml lemonade or

300 ml lime juice and 180 ml lemonade = 480

The greatest amount of fizzy drink he can make = 480 ml.
