Answer:
2 3/6
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 15 by 6 to get 2, and left with a remainder of 3.
Answer:
y = 2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x+2
We know the slope of this line is 2 because it is in the form y =mx +b where m is the slope
We want a parallel line so it has the same slope
We can use the point slope form of the equation
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y--1 = 2(x-2)
y+1 = 2(x-2)
Distribute
y+1 = 2x-4
Subtract 1 from each side
y+1-1 = 2x-4-1
y = 2x-5
This is in slope intercept form
The roots routine will return a column vector containing the roots of a polynomial. The general syntax is
z = roots(p)
where p is a vector containing the coefficients of the polynomial ordered in descending powers.
Given a vector
which describes a polynomial
we construct the companion matrix (which has a characteristic polynomial matching the polynomial described by p), and then find the eigenvalues of it (which are the roots of its characteristic polynomial)
Example
Here is an example of finding the roots to the polynomial
