Answer:

  x ∈ {1/2, 1, 3, i, -i}

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your function is supposed to be ...

  f(x) = 2x^5 -9x^4 +12x^3 -12x^2 +10x -3=0

I find it convenient to use a graphing calculator to find the real roots of higher-degree polynomials. The attached shows the real roots are ...

  x = 1/2, 1, 3

Factoring those out leaves the quadratic factor ...

  x^2 +1 = 0

That one has roots ±i.

So, the full complement of roots is ...

  x ∈ {1/2, 1, 3, i, -i}

_____

Descartes' rule of signs tells you the real roots are all positive. The rational root theorem tells you that rational roots are in the set {1/2, 1, 3/2, 3}. The sum of coefficients is 0, telling you that x=1 is a real root.

Factoring that from the polynomial leaves the 4th-degree factor ...

  2x^4 −7x^3 +5x^2 −7x +3 . . . . . division shown in 2nd attachment

For x=1, this has a negative value (-4), so you know there is a root between f(0) =3 and f(1) = -4. The only rational choice is 1/2.

Similarly, factoring that from the polynomial (along with a factor of 2) leaves the cubic ...

  x^3 -3x^2 +x -3 . . . . . division shown in 3rd attachment

This is clearly factorable by grouping to (x -3)(x^2 +1), so we have our third real root and the quadratic that yields the complex roots.

I will mark brainliest to whoever gets this answer! Please help!

Answer:

20 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is really easy once you break it down!

First, find the area of the triangle.

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

b = 5 + 3 = 8

h = 4 + 4 = 8

A = \frac{1}{2}*8*8

A = 32

Now find the area of the square.

A = lw

A = 4*3

A = 12

The last step is to subtract.

Area of triangle - area of rectangle =

32 - 12 = 20

20 yd²

Hope this helped! :)

Write 0.111... as a fraction
alex41 [277]

Answer:

To write 0.111 as a fraction you have to write 0.111 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.

0.111 = 0.111/1 = 1.11/10 = 11.1/100 = 111/1000

And finally we have:

0.111 as a fraction equals 111/1000
