Answer:
a. attached graph; zero real: 2
b. p(x) = (x - 2)(x + 3 + 3i)(x + 3 - 3i)
c. the solutions are 2, -3-3i and -3+3i
Step-by-step explanation:
p(x) = x³ + 4x² + 6x - 36
a. Through the graph, we can see that 2 is a real zero of the polynomial p. We can also use the Rational Roots Test.
p(2) = 2³ + 4.2² + 6.2 - 36 = 8 + 16 + 12 - 36 = 0
b. Now, we can use Briott-Ruffini to find the other roots and write p as a product of linear factors.
2 | 1 4 6 -36
1 6 18 0
x² + 6x + 18 = 0
Δ = 6² - 4.1.18 = 36 - 72 = -36 = 36i²
√Δ = 6i
x = -6±6i/2 = 2(-3±3i)/2
x' = -3-3i
x" = -3+3i
p(x) = (x - 2)(x + 3 + 3i)(x + 3 - 3i)
c. the solutions are 2, -3-3i and -3+3i

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that will model this situation will be of the form
where
is the time in hours john has traveled since the gas station, and
is the distance.
Now we know that John has already traveled 20 miles when he is at the gas station, this means at
,
; or


Thus we have
.
Now we need to figure out 
When John reaches home 2 hours later he notes that he has traveled 30 miles, which means he has traveled 30 - 20 = 10 miles; thus we have


Now we have the full equation:

Answer:
60% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
To work out percentage change you takeaway the original number by the new number (New number-Original number) in this case 24-60=(-36), then divide the decreased amount by the original number and multiply the answer by 100 (Decrease amount ÷ Original number x 100) for this question you'd do (-36)÷60=(-0.6) then (-0.6)x100=(-60).
The minus shows its a decrease in percentage by 60%
