The length of segments ab is 24
Let us say that the number of weeks is "x" and the number of chores is "y".
If we state an algebraic expression for Janie's allowance it would be
3x+2y=13
However, there are two variables, hence many answers. To solve this problem, there must be more information about the relation between x and y.
Lol i learned this last chapter. ok here is one 2x + 3 < 5
There are many polynomials that fit the bill,
f(x)=a(x-r1)(x-r2)(x-r3)(x-r4) where a is any real number not equal to zero.
A simple one is when a=1.
where r1,r2,r3,r4 are the roots of the 4th degree polynomial.
Also note that for a polynomial with *real* coefficients, complex roots *always* come in conjugages, i.e. in the form a±bi [±=+/-]
So a polynomial would be:
f(x)=(x-(-4-5i))(x-(-4+5i))(x--2)(x--2)
or, simplifying
f(x)=(x+4+5i)(x+4-5i)(x+2)^2
=x^4+12x^3+77x^2+196x+164 [if you decide to expand]
