Answer:

290 centimetres

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the length of the pieces of wood is 6 : 10 : 12.

We have to find the total ratio first:

6 + 10 + 12 = 28

The longer piece of wood has ratio 10.

The length of the original wooden plank is 812 centimetres, therefore, the length of the longer piece of wood is:

10/28 * 812 = 290 centimetres

Answer:

$12.31

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the original rate of pay as being 100%.

If your rate is increasing by 7%, it will now be 107% of the original rate (since 100% + 7% = 107%)

To find 107% of $11.50, convert 107% into a decimal

⇒ 107% = 107/100 = 1.07

then multiply this by the original rate to get the new increased rate:

⇒ $11.50 × 1.07 = $12.305

Rounding this to the nearest hundred = $12.31

Alternatively, you can find 7% of $11.50 and then add this to $11.50.

⇒ 7% = 7/100 = 0.07

Therefore, 7% of $11.50 = 0.07 × $11.50 = $0.805

Add this to the original rate:

$11.50 + $0.805 = $12.305

Rounding this to the nearest hundred = $12.31

1. If a polynomial of Degree 4 has an imaginary zero at -2i and a real zero at 5, how many imaginary zeros does it have?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Complex roots for polynomials equations will always come in conjugate pairs.  Since 1-2i is a root, 1+2i will also be a root.  (Just switch the sign of the imaginary part to its opposite.)

Step-by-step explanation:

So far we have 1-2i and 1+2i as roots.  We need two more to make a 4th degree polynomial.

x=1 with multiplicity of 2 means that we count the root twice when we write down the polynomial: (x - 1)(x - 1) = (x - 1)2

Putting it all together, we can construct our polynomial of degree 4 as

y = f(x) = (x - 1)(x - 1)[x - (1-2i)][x - (1+2i)]

Multiply the factors (FOIL):

[x - (1-2i)][x - (1+2i)] =

x2 - (1+2i)x - (1-2i)x + (1-2i)(1+2i) =

x2 - x - 2ix - x + 2ix + (1 + 2i - 2i + 4) =

x2 - 2x + 5

(x - 1)(x - 1) = x2 - x - x + 1 = x2 - 2x + 1

Now multiply the two underlined expressions:

y = (x2 - 2x + 5)(x2 - 2x + 1)

= x4 - 2x3 + 5x2 - 2x3 + 4x2 - 10x + x2 - 2x + 5  by multiplying term by term

= x4 - 4x3 + 10x2 -12x + 5 by collecting like terms.
