A polynomial p has zeros when x = -2, x = 1/3, and x =3.

Answer:

p(x) = ( x +2) (3x - 1) ( x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the equation for a polynomial with given zeros is

f(x) = a(x-b1) (x-b2)...... where b are the zeros and a is a constant

Since the zeros are x = -2, x = 1/3, and x =3.

p(x) = a( x - -2) (x - 1/3) ( x-3)

p(x) = a( x +2) (x - 1/3) ( x-3)

We can pick the value of a since we are not given a point on the function.  Pick a=3

p(x) = 3( x +2) (x - 1/3) ( x-3)

Rewriting the second term

p(x) = ( x +2) (3x - 1) ( x-3)

Find all solutions to the equation in the interval [0, 2π). cos 2x - cos x = 0
Jlenok [28]
This is the concept of algebra, to solve the expression we proceed as follows;
cos 2x-cosx=0
cos 2x=cosx
but:
cos 2x+1=2(cos^2x)
thereore;
from:
cos 2x=cos x
adding 1 on both sides we get:
cos 2x+1=cos x+1
2(cos^2x)=cosx+1
suppose;
cos x=a
thus;
2a^2=a+1
a^2-1/2a-1/2=0
solving the above quadratic we get:
a=-0.5 and a=1
when a=-0.5
cosx=-0.5
x=120=2/3π
when x=1
cos x=1
x=0
the answer is:
x=0 or x=2/3π
