Answer:

Option D is correct .i.e., f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Roots of Polynomial are -5 and 1

To find: Polynomial function

We substitute given value of roots in each polynomial and check

if for both value polynomial given 0 then that our required polynomial

A). f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x + 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 + 5 ) ( -5 + 1 )

       = 0 × (-4) = 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 + 5 ) ( 1 + 1 )

     =  6 × 2 = 12 ≠ 0

Thus, It is not required polynomial

B). f(x) = ( x - 5 ) ( x - 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 - 5 ) ( -5 - 1 )

       = -10 × (-6) = 60 ≠ 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 - 5 ) ( 1 - 1 )

     =  -4 × 0 = 0

Thus, It is not required polynomial

C). f(x) = ( x - 5 ) ( x + 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 - 5 ) ( -5 + 1 )

       = -10 × (-4) = 40 ≠ 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 - 5 ) ( 1 + 1 )

     =  -4 × 2 = -8 ≠ 0

Thus, It is not required polynomial

D). f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 + 5 ) ( -5 - 1 )

       = 0 × (-6) = 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 + 5 ) ( 1 - 1 )

     =  6 × 0 = 0

Thus, It is required polynomial

Therefore, Option D is correct .i.e., f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 1 )

120 pianists compete in a piano competition. (a) In the first round, 30 of the 120 are selected to go on to the next round. How
MissTica

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 120 Pianist in a competition

(a)In first round 30 pianist is selected

this can be done in ^{120}C_{30} ways

=\frac{120!}{(120-30)!30!}

=\frac{120!}{90!30!}

(b)In the second round 5 pianist is selected out of 30

this can be doe by =\frac{30!}{(30-5)!5!}

=\frac{30!}{25!5!}

=142,506

The algebraic expression 4x2 + 3Vx+5 is a polynomial
Mila [183]

Answer:

In this problem, I can not tell what is V, so I will answer it in a general way.

A polynomial is something of the form:

a*x^5 + b*x^4 + c*x^3 + d*x^2 + e*x + f

a, b, c, d, e, and f are real numbers and constant.

Where the degree of the polynomial is equal to the greatest power (in this case 5).

You write:

4x^2 + 3Vx + 5

Now, if V is a real number, then we have that this is a polynomial of degree 2.

Because we can write this as:

4*x^2 + (3V)*x + 5

So the answer is true.

Now, if V is a variable or an operation, the answer will be false.
