Verify that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

i) Since P(2), P(-1) and P(½) gives 0, then it's true that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial.

ii) - the sum of the zeros and the corresponding coefficients are the same

-the Sum of the products of roots where 2 are taken at the same time is same as the corresponding coefficient.

-the product of the zeros of the polynomial is same as the corresponding coefficient

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the cubic polynomial;

p(x) = 2x³ - 3x² - 3x + 2

For us to verify that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial, we will plug them into the equation and they must give a value of zero.

Thus;

P(2) = 2(2)³ - 3(2)² - 3(2) + 2 = 16 - 12 - 6 + 2 = 0

P(-1) = 2(-1)³ - 3(-1)² - 3(-1) + 2 = -2 - 3 + 3 + 2 = 0

P(½) = 2(½)³ - 3(½)² - 3(½) + 2 = ¼ - ¾ - 3/2 + 2 = -½ + ½ = 0

Since, P(2), P(-1) and P(½) gives 0,then it's true that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial.

Now, let's verify the relationship between the zeros and the coefficients.

Let the zeros be as follows;

α = 2

β = -1

γ = ½

The coefficients are;

a = 2

b = -3

c = -3

d = 2

So, the relationships are;

α + β + γ = -b/a

αβ + βγ + γα = c/a

αβγ = -d/a

Thus,

First relationship α + β + γ = -b/a gives;

2 - 1 + ½ = -(-3/2)

1½ = 3/2

3/2 = 3/2

LHS = RHS; So, the sum of the zeros and the coefficients are the same

For the second relationship, αβ + βγ + γα = c/a it gives;

2(-1) + (-1)(½) + (½)(2) = -3/2

-2 - 1½ + 1 = -3/2

-1½ - 1½ = -3/2

-3/2 = - 3/2

LHS = RHS, so the Sum of the products of roots where 2 are taken at the same time is same as the coefficient

For the third relationship, αβγ = -d/a gives;

2 * -1 * ½ = -2/2

-1 = - 1

LHS = RHS, so the product of the zeros(roots) is same as the corresponding coefficient

A ceiling light has a cross-section in the shape of a parabola. The parabola is 24 cm wide and 9 cm deep. The lightbulb is locat
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

  4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola with its vertex at the origin can be written as ...

  y = 1/(4p)x^2

The problem statement tells us that one point on the parabola is (x, y) = (12, 9). We can put these values into the equation and solve for p, the distance from the focus to the vertex.

  9 = 1/(4p)(12^2)

  9×4/144 = 1/p = 1/4 . . . . . . . . multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of 1/p

Then p = 4, and the bulb is 4 cm from the vertex.

Can u guys PLEASE ANSWER this question ASAP.
qwelly [4]

Answer:

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression to write in this problem is:

"the sum of x and 12 equals the sum of half of x and 5"

We have:

- The sum of x and 12 is: x+12

- The sum of half of x and 5 is: \frac{1}{2}x+5

So, the equation to write in this problem is

x+12=\frac{1}{2}x+5

We solve it as follows:

1) First, we subtract \frac{1}{2}x from both sides, and we get

x-\frac{1}{2}x+12=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}x+5\\\frac{1}{2}x+12=5

2) Then, we subtract 12 from both sides:

\frac{1}{2}x+12-12=5-12\\\frac{1}{2}x=-7

3) Now we multiply both sides by 2:

\frac{1}{2}x\cdot 2=-7\cdot 2\\x=-14

So, this is the solution.

Name a career in which one would have to use the phythagorean theorem.Give an example of when and how it would be used.Please wr
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The careers that use Pythagoras theorem are mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of squares of the two sides of right angled triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

Let a, b and c be the sides of a right triangle where c is the length of the hypotenuse.Then

a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}

Pythagoras theorem is used in daily life situations.

A surveyor looks through a telescope toward a measuring stick a fixed distance away, so that the telescope's line of sight and the measuring stick form a right angle.

It is also used to calculate the steepness of slopes and mountains.

THIS IS URGENT I AM BEING TIMED IF YOU ANSWER ALL OF THEM I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLYIST.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The answer is 6.56

Step-by-step explanation:

11.20 is the total.  You multiply that by .15 and get $1.68 for the tip.  You multiply $11.20 by .05 for the tax and get  $.56.  You  add them together and get $13.44.  You subtract that from $20.00 and get $6.56
