Which of the following is the complete list of roots for the polynomial function f(x) =

Mathematics

REY [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: -5, 3, 4 + 1,4-i (option 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of an equation are the x values for f(x) = 0. Therefore to find the roots of the equation, you first set the function to 0 and then solve for the values of x.

since f(x) = -(x² + 2x - 15) (x² + 8x + 17)

            0 = -(x² + 2x - 15) (x² + 8x + 17)

∴ either -x² - 2x + 15 = 0      OR     x² + 8x +17 = 0

when    -x² - 2x + 15 = 0  

             -x² - 5x + 3x + 15 = 0

            (x  - 3 ) (-x - 5) = 0

⇒ x = 3 or x = -5

when x² + 8x +17 = 0

\frac{-8 + \sqrt{(64 - 68)}}{2} = 0 OR \frac{-8 - \sqrt{(64 - 68)}}{2} = 0        (using the quadratic equation)

⇒ x = 4 + i  or x = 4 - i

∴ the complete list of roots is -5, 3, 4 + 1,4-i (option 2)

1. We can conclude that the result of the division is x-13 with a remainder of 4x-9, or in other notation: x-13+ \frac{4x-9}{x^2+3}. Check the steps in the first image.

3. We can conclude that the result of the division is x^{2} +6x+3 with a remainder of 2, or in other notation: x^{2}+6x+3+ \frac{2}{x-1}. Check the steps in the firts image.

5. We can conclude that the result of the division is x+1 with a remainder of 5, or in other notation: x+1+ \frac{5}{x-4}. Check the steps in the first image.

7. To check if x+4 is a factor of x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24, we are going to perform long division. If the result of the long division has no remainder, x+4 is a factor of x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24.
Since the result of the long division has no remainder, we can conclude that x+4 is a factor of x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24. Check the steps in the second image.

9. To check if x-3 is a factor of x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24, we are going to perform long division. If the result of the long division has no remainder, x-4 is a factor of x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24.
Since the result of the long division has no remainder, we can conclude that x-4 is a factor of x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24. Check the steps in the third image.

10. We can conclude that the result of the synthetic division is -2x^{2}+9x+5. Check the steps in the fourth image.

Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal what is the value of A?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: 63 degrees (second choice)

The two angles shown are corresponding angles. They are both on the bottom side of their adjacent parallel line, and at the same time, they are also on the left side of the transversal line. This is why they are corresponding angles.

Corresponding angles are congruent if you have a set of parallel lines like the diagram shows. So that's why a = 63.

The percentage of alcohol in a person's bloodstream t hr after drinking 8 fluid oz of whiskey is given by
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

  (a)  0.023%

Step-by-step explanation:

Fill in the given number and do the arithmetic.

  A(12) = 0.23·12·e^(-0.4·12) ≈ 0.0227 ≈ 0.023

The percentage of alcohol in the blood 12 hours after the drink is about 0.023.
