5. Solve the polynomial equation:

Mathematics
1 answer:

Solution,

Given; x^3-7x^2-x+7=0

Using factor theorem,

we have,

i)x^3-7x^2-x+7=0

let's check whether 1 is the factor of given equation or not by replacing the value of x by one..

or, 1^3-7.1^2-1+7=0

or, 1-7-1+7=0(.°. Cancellation of +1&-1 and +7&-7 in equation)

.°.0=0

which proves that 1 is one of the factor of x

therefore(x-1) is a factor of x^3-7x^2-x+7=0.

Now,

Expanding the x^3-7x^2-x+7=0 to get (x-1) as a factor...

ii)x^3-7x^2-x+7=0

or,x^3-x^2-6x^2+6x-7x+7

or,x^2(x-1) - 6x(x-1) - 7(x-1) = 0

or,(x-1) (x^2-6x-7)w = 0

or,,(x-1) (x^2-(7-1)x-7) =0

or,,(x-1) (x^2-7x + x -7) =0

or,(x-1) [x(x-7)+1(x-7)] = 0

or,(x-1) (x+1) (x-7) = 0

Either,

i) x - 1=0

.°.x = 1

And,

ii)x + 1 = 0

.°. x = -1

Or,

iii) x - 7 = 0

.°.x =7

Hence, the required value of x are -1 ,+1 & 7.

1. Percent error is | \frac{guess-actual}{actual}|
The guess is 15.5mi, and the actual distance is 14.5 mi.
Percent error is | \frac{15.5-14.5}{14.5}|=0.69=6.9%

2. The cost will be $31.95*(1+0.075) = $34.35
The 1 represents 100% of the original amount of $31.95, and now we add 7.5% (0.075) to the 100%. In other words we multiply $31.95 by 107.5%.

3. His commission will be $165 out of $4125, or $165/$4215 = 0.039 = 3.9%

4. The principal (amount of money you start with) is $12000, and the interest rate is 15% of that.
15% of $1800 = 0.15*$12000 = $1800
