Y= x^3-19x+30 State the number of complex zeros for each function

8 0

Answer:

  0

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Descartes' rule of signs, we observe that the signs of the coefficients, + - +, have two changes. Thus there will be 0 or 2 positive real roots, hence 0 or 2 complex roots.

We can do further work to determine if it is 0 or 2. A graphing calculator provides an easy answer.

This function of x has <em>no complex zeros</em>. They are all real.

_____

For a cubic, it isn't always easy to find the zeros. The rational root theorem tells you any rational zeros will be factors of 30. Possibilities are ...

  ±1, ±2, ±3, ±5, ±6 . . . . . we're pretty sure no roots have magnitude > 6

For x=0, y = 30 . . . . the constant

For x=1, y = 12 . . . . . a smaller value, so we're going in the right direction

For x=2, y = 0 . . . . . one of the real roots

Dividing out this factor*, we get ...

  y = (x -2)(x^2 +2x -15)

Factoring the quadratic gives ...

  y = (x -2)(x -3)(x +5) . . . . . . all real zeros

_____

* For dividing x^3 -19x +30, synthetic division works well. The work for that is shown in the second attachment.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 19 centimeters. Its length is 6 centimeters. What is its width?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

3.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (w + h)

w = width

h = height

We have: 2 x (w + 6) = 19

w + 6 = 19 : 2 = 9.5

w = 9.5 - 6 = 3.5 (cm)

What explains how to find the quotient of the division<br> -3 1/3 over 4/9
Arturiano [62]
(-3 1/3) / (4/9).....turn -3 1/3 to an improper fraction
(-10/3) / (4/9)...when dividing fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then multiply
-10/3 * 9/4 ...now just multiply
-30/4 or if u need it back as a mixed fraction, it is - 7 1/2

<span>The length of a rectangular prism is 5 more than twice the width w. The volume of the prism is 2w^3 + w^2 + 5w. What's the simplified expression for the height of the prism
</span>
<span>V=f(w)
</span><span>2w^3 + w^2 + 5w
</span><span>v=w^2*l
</span><span>svl l=v/w^2
</span>
<span>V=w^2*(2*w+5)
</span>
<span>2w^3 + w^2 + 5w=w^2*(2*w+5)
</span><span>(2*w+5)= (2w^3 + w^2 + 5w)/w^2
w=5/4</span>
