The answer should be 14.
You just have to substitute x with the given number and finish the equation.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A 2nd order polynomial such as this one will have 2 roots; a 3rd order polynomial 3 roots, and so on.
The quadratic formula is one of the faster ways (in this situation, at least) in which to find the roots. From 2x^2 + 4x + 7 we get a = 2, b = 4 and c = 7.
Then the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or, here, 4^2 - 4(2)(7), or -40. Because the discriminant is negative, we know that the roots will be complex and unequal.
Using the quadratic formula:
-4 ±√[-40] -4 ± 2i√10
x = ------------------ = ------------------
4 4
-2 ± i√10
Thus, the roots are x = ------------------

Answer:
1+i
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the 8th roots of unity, you have to find the trigonometric form of unity.
1. Since
then

and

This gives you 
Thus,

2. The 8th roots can be calculated using following formula:
![\sqrt[8]{z}=\{\sqrt[8]{|z|} (\cos\dfrac{\varphi+2\pi k}{8}+i\sin \dfrac{\varphi+2\pi k}{8}), k=0,\ 1,\dots,7\}.](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B8%5D%7Bz%7D%3D%5C%7B%5Csqrt%5B8%5D%7B%7Cz%7C%7D%20%28%5Ccos%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cvarphi%2B2%5Cpi%20k%7D%7B8%7D%2Bi%5Csin%20%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cvarphi%2B2%5Cpi%20k%7D%7B8%7D%29%2C%20k%3D0%2C%5C%201%2C%5Cdots%2C7%5C%7D.)
