Explain why the quadratic relation y=2x^2+3x+5 would have no zeros

Complete the square to rewrite the quadratic:

2 <em>x</em>² + 3 <em>x</em> + 5 = 2 (<em>x</em>² + 3/2 <em>x</em>) + 5

... = 2 (<em>x</em>² + 3/2 <em>x</em> + 9/16 - 9/16) + 5

... = 2 (<em>x</em>² + 3/2 <em>x</em> + (3/4)²) + 5 - 9/8

... = 2 (<em>x</em> + 3/4)² + 31/8

Any real number squared becomes non-negative, so the quadratic expression has a minimum value of 31/8, which is greater than 0, and so there are no (real) <em>x</em> for which <em>y</em> = 0.

Show all work to factor x^4 − 17x^2 + 16 completely.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

x^{4}-17x^{2} +16 = (x -1)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

At first, let us find the first two factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

∵ The sign of the last term is positive

∴ The middle signs of the two factors are the same

∵ The sign of the middle term is negative

∴ The middle signs of the two factors are negative

∵ x^{4} = x² × x² ⇒ first terms of the two factors

∵ 16 = -1 × -16 ⇒ second terms of the two factors

∵ x²(-1) + x²(-16) = -x² + -16x² = -17x² ⇒ the value of the middle term

∴ (x² - 1) and (x² - 16) are the factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

Now let us factorize each factor

→ The factors of the binomial a² - b² (difference of two squares) are

   (a - b) and (a + b)

∵ x² - 1 is the difference of two squares

∴ Its factors are (x - 1) and (x + 1)

∵ x² - 16 is the difference of two squares

∴ Its factors are (x - 4) and (x + 4)

∵ (x -1), (x + 1), (x - 4), and (x + 4) are the factors of (x² - 1) and (x² - 16)

∵ (x² - 1) and (x² - 16) are the factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

∴ (x -1), (x + 1), (x - 4), and (x + 4) are the factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

∴  x^{4}-17x^{2} +16 = (x -1)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x + 4)
