Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The roots are:</u>

  • 3, 3, 2 - 3i, 2 + 3i (conjugate of 2 - 3i should be added) and the leading coefficient is - 5

<u>The polynomial is:</u>

  • -5(x - 3)² (x - [2 - 3i]) (x - [2 + 3i]) =
  • - 5(x² - 6x + 9) (x² - 4x + 13) =
  • -5(x⁴ - 10x³ + 46x² - 114x + 117) =
  • -5x⁴ + 50x³ - 230x² + 570x - 585

Find the difference between points M(6,16) and Z(-1,14) to the nearest tenth.
svlad2 [7]

I'm not sure what you mean by difference, so I am guessing you meant to write "distance". If this is not the case, then feel free to report me. Anyway, to find the distance between two points you would use the distance formula.

Distance Formula: d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}.

Let's substitute our point coordinates into the formula. We'll substitute -1 and 6 for x_2 and x_1, and 14 and 16 for y_2 and y_1. After substituting, your formula will now look like: d=\sqrt{(-1-6)^2+(14-16)^2}.

d=\sqrt{(-1-6)^2+(14-16)^2}

Subtract the coordinates.

d=\sqrt{(-7)^2+(-2)^2}

Square the subtracted coordinates.

d=\sqrt{49+4}

Add 49 and 4.

d=\sqrt{53}

Square root 53 and round the answer to the nearest tenth.

7.28 becomes 7.3.

7.3 units is the distance between points M and Z.

Answer:

Pedigrees of autosomal recessive traits will have equal frequencies of affected males and females, whereas pedigrees X-linked recessive traits will show that most of the affected individuals are male.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the trait is dominant, one of the parents must have the trait. Dominant traits will not skip a generation. If the trait is recessive, neither parent is required to have the trait since they can be heterozygous.A pedigree is a chart which shows the inheritance of a trait over several generations. From studying a pedigree, scientists can determine if a trait is sex-linked or autosoma If an individual has that trait, their symbol on the pedigree will be shaded in. If they have no widow's peak, their symbol will not be shaded in because having no widow's peak is recessive. Certain traits like colorblindness are located on the X or Y chromosome and are called sex-linked Several basic modes of inheritance exist for single-gene disorders: autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, and X-linked recessive. However, not all genetic conditions will follow these patterns, and other rare forms of inheritance such as mitochondrial inheritance exist Autosomal recessive patterns manifest by skipping generations as the affected are usually children of unaffected carriers. It is also common to see affected individuals with unaffected offspring. ... The most common situation of an autosomal recessive disease occurs when the parents are each carrier or heterozygous (Dd)
