We have to identify the function which has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x)= 3x^5-2x^4+9x^3-x^2+12.

Firstly, we will find the rational roots of the given function.

Let 'p' be the factors of 12

So, p= \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6

Let 'q' be the factors of 3

So, q=\pm 1, \pm 3

So, the rational roots are given by \frac{p}{q} which are as:

\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6, \pm \frac{1}{3}, \pm \frac{2}{3}, \pm \frac{4}{3}.

Consider the first function given in part A.

f(x) = 3x^5-2x^4-9x^3+x^2-12

Here also, Let 'p' be the factors of 12

So, p= \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6

Let 'q' be the factors of 3

So, q=\pm 1, \pm 3

So, the rational roots are given by \frac{p}{q} which are as:

\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6, \pm \frac{1}{3}, \pm \frac{2}{3}, \pm \frac{4}{3}.

Therefore, this equation has same rational roots of the given function.

Option A is the correct answer.

Write the first five terms of the geometric sequence in which a1=8 and the common ratio is -1/2.
Oliga [24]

Answer:

First five terms are:

8 , (-4) , 2 , (-1) , (1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

a_{1}=8 \\\\r = \frac{-1}{2}\\\\a_{2}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{1}= \frac{-1}{2}*8= -4\\\\a_{3}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{2}=\frac{-1}{2}*-4=2\\\\a_{4}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{3}=\frac{-1}{2}*2=-1\\\\a_{5}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{4}=\frac{-1}{2}*-1=\frac{1}{2}

Someone please HELP!?

 A negative exponent just means that the base is on the wrong side of the fraction line, so you need to flip the base to the other side.

For example

x^{-2}=\frac{1}{x^2}

or

( \frac{2}{5} )^{-4}=( \frac{5}{2} )^4

***************************************
(8r^{-5})^{-3}

(8* \frac{1}{r^5} )^{-3} \\\\( \frac{8}{r^5} )^{-3}&#10; \\  \\ ( \frac{r^5}{8} )^3&#10;\\\\ \mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad *\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^c=\frac{a^c}{b^c} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \   *(a^b)^c=a^{bc}&#10; \\\\( \frac{r^{15}}{8^3} )&#10;\\\\( \frac{r^{15}}{512} )

The answer is "D"
