Given:

The function is:

f(x)=10x^5+8x^4-15x^3+2x^2-2

To find:

All the possible rational zeros for the given function by using the Rational Zero Theorem.

Solution:

According to the rational root theorem, all the rational roots are of the form \dfrac{p}{q},q\neq 0, where p is a factor of constant term and q is a factor of leading coefficient.

We have,

f(x)=10x^5+8x^4-15x^3+2x^2-2

Here,

Constant term = -2

Leading coefficient = 10

Factors of -2 are ±1, ±2.

Factors of 10 are ±1, ±2, ±5, ±10.

Using the rational root theorem, all the possible rational roots are:

x=\pm 1,\pm 2,\pm \dfrac{1}{2}, \pm \dfrac{1}{5},\pm \dfrac{2}{5},\pm \dfrac{1}{10}.

Therefore, all the possible rational roots of the given function are \pm 1,\pm 2,\pm \dfrac{1}{2}, \pm \dfrac{1}{5},\pm \dfrac{2}{5},\pm \dfrac{1}{10}.

Answer:

a15 = 50

t25 = 33554427

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Insert/Substitute the number given in for n.</em>

a15 = 3(15) + 5

a15 = 45 + 5

a15 = 50

~

t25 = 2^25 - 5     <em>2 times itself 25 times. 25 is the exponent in this equation</em>

t25 = 33554432 - 5

t25 = 33554427

Answer:

N0 solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

x=-2y+1....(1)

x+2y=9....(2)

put equation (2) to equation (1)

-2y+1 + 2y=9

combine

-2y + 2y=9-1
