Factor the polynomial function over the complex numbers. f(x)=x^3-2x^2+3x-6

1 answer:

6 0

$f(x)=x^3-2x^2+3x-6=x^2(x-2)+3(x-2)=(x-2)(x^2+3)\\\\i=\sqrt{-1}\to i^2=-1\\\\x^2+3=x^2-(-3)=x^2-3i^2=x^2-(\sqrt3)^2i^2)=x^2-(i\sqrt3)^2\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\\boxed{f(x)=(x-2)(x-i\sqrt3)(x+i\sqrt3)}$

Two angles are complementary angles if the sum of their measure is 90 degrees. Angle A and angle B are complementary angles, and

Marta_Voda [28]

Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:

We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem.

First we will establish the equations which we will be using as displayed below:

Equation No. 1 -

A + B = 90°

Equation No. 1 -

A = 2B + 12

To begin with, let's make ( A ) the subject in the first equation as displayed below:

Equation No. 1 -

A + B = 90

A = 90 - B

Next we will substitute the value of ( A ) from the first equation into the second equation and solve for ( B ) as displayed below:

Equation No. 2 -

A = 2B + 12

( 90 - B ) = 2B + 12

- B - 2B = 12 - 90

- 3B = - 78

B = - 78 / - 3

B = 26°

Then we will substitute the value of ( B ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( A ) as displayed below:

A = 90 - B

A = 90 - ( 26 )

A = 64°

ANSWER:

Therefore, the answer is:

A = 64°

B = 26°

A poll asked 1057 American adults if they believe there was a conspiracy in the assassination of President Kennedy, and found th

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval of the proportion of Americans who believe in the conspiracy is $0.551< p < 0.610$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n =1057

The number that believe there was a conspiracy is k = 614

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p = \frac{614}{1057 }$

=> $\^ p = 0.5809$

From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is

$\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%$

=> $\alpha = 0.05$

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96$

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\^ p (1- \^ p)}{n} }$

=> $E = 1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{0.5809 (1- 0.5809)}{1057} }$

=> $E = 0.02975$

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

$\^ p -E < p < \^ p +E$

=> $0.5809 - 0.02975< p < 0.5809 + 0.02975$

=> $0.551< p < 0.610$

How to solve Ln x = 0.25x

kirza4 [7]

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
x
=
0.25
x
Step 1: Subtract 0.25x from both sides.
x
−
0.25
x
=
0.25
x
−
0.25
x
0.75
x
=
0
Step 2: Divide both sides by 0.75.
0.75
x
0.75
=
