Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the rational roots test. The possible roots are: plus/minus 6,3,2,1
Use synthetic division and you will see that 3 is a root:
3 | 1 -3 -3 11 -6
| 3 0 -9 6
____________
1 0 -3 2 0
Use rational root again, to see that possible roots are: plus/minus 2,1
Try 2:
2 | 1 0 -3 -2
| 2 4 2
_____________
1 2 1 0
The above is x^2+2x+1 which is a perfect square: (x+1)^2
So we have the final factorization: (x-3)(x-2)(x+1)^2
So the roots are: 3, 2, -1
Where -1 is a double zero.
Answer:
5 blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right use Pythagoras' identity to solve for AC
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
AC² = AB² + BC² ← substitute values
AC² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
AC =
= 5
