Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Left

When a square = a linear, always expand the squared expression.

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 3x - 5                Subtract 3x from both sides

x^2 - 2x - 3x + 1 = -5

x^2 - 5x +1 = - 5                      Add 5 to both sides

x^2 - 5x + 1 + 5 = -5 + 5

x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0

This factors

(x - 2)(x - 3)

So one solution is x = 2 and the other is x = 3

Second from the Left

i = sqrt(-1)

i^2 = - 1

i^4 = (i^2)(i^2)

i^4 = - 1 * -1

i^4 = 1

16(i^4) - 8(i^2) + 4

16(1) - 8(-1) + 4

16 + 8 + 4

28

Second from the Right

This one is rather long. I'll get you the equations, you can solve for a and b. Maybe not as long as I think.

12 = 8a + b

<u>17 = 12a + b         Subtract</u>

-5 = - 4a

a = - 5/-4 = 1.25

12 = 8*1.25 + b

12 = 10 + b

b = 12 - 10

b = 2

Now they want a + b

a + b = 1.25 + 2 = 3.25

Right

One of the ways to do this is to take out the common factor. You could also expand the square and remove the brackets of (2x - 2). Both will give you the same answer. I think expansion might be easier for you to understand, but the common factor method is shorter.

(2x - 2)^2 = 4x^2 - 8x + 4

4x^2 - 8x + 4 - 2x + 2

4x^2 - 10x + 6    The problem is factoring since neither of the first two equations work.

(2x - 2)(2x - 3)     This is correct.

So the answer is D

Using the Factor Theorem, which of the polynomial functions has the zeros 2, radical 3 , and negative radical 3 ? f (x) = x3 – 2
butalik [34]

To solve this question, we use the factor theorem, and using it, the polynomial function is:

f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x + 6

------------------------------

The factor theorem means that if k is a root of f(x), f(k) = 0.

Thus, applying the factor theorem for this question, we have to choose the function for which: f(2) = 0, f(\sqrt{3}) = 0, f(-\sqrt{3}) = 0

------------------------------

Function 1:

f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x + 6

Testing the values:

f(2) = 2^3 - 2(2)^2 - 3(2) + 6 = 8 - 8 - 6 + 6 = 0

f(\sqrt{3}) = \sqrt{3^3} - 2(\sqrt{3})^2 - 3\sqrt{3} + 6 = \sqrt{3^2\times3} - 6 - 3\sqrt{3} + 6 = 3\sqrt{3} - 3\sqrt{3} = 0

f(-\sqrt{3}) = -\sqrt{3^3} - 2(-\sqrt{3})^2 - 3(-\sqrt{3}) + 6 = -\sqrt{3^2\times3} - 6 + 3\sqrt{3} + 6 = -3\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{3} = 0

Thus, since all three conditions are satisfied, f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x + 6 is the polynomial function.
