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)

How many ways can 6 people be chosen and arranged in straight line if there are 8 people to choose from? a. 48.b. 720.c. 20, 160
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

<h2>C. <em>20,160</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This question bothers on permutation since we are to select a some people out of a group of people and then arrange in a straight line. If r object are to be arranged in a straight line when selecting them from n pool of objects. This can be done in nPr number of ways.

nPr = n!/(n-r)!

Selection of 6 people out of 8 people can therefore be done in 8C6 number of ways.

8P6 = 8!/(8-6)!

8P6 = 8!/2!

8P6 = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2!/2!

8P6 = 8*7*6*5*4*3

8P6 = 56*360

8P6 = 20,160

<em>Hence this can be done in 20,160 number of ways</em>
