Answer:

  a. f(0) = 1

  b. DNE (does not exist)

  c. DNE

  d. lim = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The function exists at a point if it is defined there. The function is defined anywhere on the solid line and at solid dots. It is not defined at open circles. So, the function is defined everywhere except (2, 3), which has an open circle.

The open circle at (0, 4) prevents the function from being doubly-defined at x=0, since it is already defined to be 1 at x=0.

This discussion tells you ...

  f(0) = 1

 f(2) does not exist. There is a "hole" in the function definition there.

__

The function has a limit at a point if approaching from the left and approaching from the right have you approaching that same point.

Consider the point (1, 2). The graph is a solid line through that point. Approaching from values less than x=1, we get to the same point (1, 2) as when we approach from values greater than x=1.

Similarly, consider the point (2, 3). Approaching from values of x less than 2, we get to the same point (2, 3) as when we approach from x-values greater than 2. The limit at x=2 is 3. The only difference from the previous case is that the function is not actually defined to be that value there.

__

Now consider what happens at x=0. When we approach from the left, we approach the point (0, 4). When we approach from the right, we approach the point (0, 1). These are different points. Because they are different coming from the left and from the right, we say "the limit as x→0 does not exist."

__

In summary, ...

  a) f(0) = 1

  b) lim x → 0 does not exist

  c) f(2) does not exist

  d) lim x → 2 = 3

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The significance of the function not being defined at a point where the limit exists, (2, 3), is that <em>the function is not continuous there</em>. This kind of discontinuity is called "removable", because we could make the function continuous at x=2 by defining f(2) = 3 (that is, "filling the hole").

Use the given zero to find the remaining zeros of each function f(x)=2x^4+5x^3+5x^2+20x-12 zero:-2i
frutty [35]

Answer:

1/2, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a pretty involved problem, so I'm going to start by laying out two facts that our going to help us get there.

  1. The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra tells us that any polynomial has <em>as many zeroes as its degree</em>. Our function f(x) has a degree of 4, so we'll have 4 zeroes. Also,
  2. Complex zeroes come in pairs. Specifically, they come in <em>conjugate pairs</em>. If -2i is a zero, 2i must be a zero, too. The "why" is beyond the scope of this response, but this result is called the "complex conjugate root theorem".

In 2., I mentioned that both -2i and 2i must be zeroes of f(x). This means that both x-2i and x+2i are factors of f(x), and furthermore, their product, x^2+4, is <em>also</em> a factor. To see what's left after we factor out that product, we can use polynomial long division to find that

2x^4+5x^3+5x^2+20x-12=(x^2+4)(2x^2+5x-3)

I'll go through to steps to factor that second expression below:

2x^2+5x-3=2x^2+6x-x-3\\=2x(x+3)-(x+3)\\=(2x-1)(x+3)

Solving both of the expressions when f(x) = 0 gets us our final two zeroes:

2x-1=0\\2x=1\\x=1/2

x+3=0\\x=-3

So, the remaining zeroes are 1/2 and 3.

Answer the circled ones, Thanks​
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

1. 6, 4. 27s, 6. 11mn/ 7. 12(3x+2), 8. 3(2+x), 11. 2(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the GCF is the highest factor that can go into each monomial, 27s factors are 27 and 1 as well as s, 57st factors are 26 and 2 as well as 57 and 1, with s and t. the highest factor is 27 with s, or 27s. the same thing applies with factoring monomias just take out the GCF and multiply it by what's left. 6 has factors of 6 and 1 as well as 2 and 3, 3x has factors of 3 and 1 with x take the common 3 out and your left with 3(2+1x) or 3(2+x).
