Answer:

x intercept=2, y intercept= -6

Step-by-step explanation:

X Intercept is when the graph crosses the X Axis, point of intersection. To find it, just convert into standard form and solve for x by getting rid of y.

The Y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis, point of intersection. It is the constant in the slope-intercept form.

Find all the zeros of the polynomial function p(x) = x3 – 5x2 + 33x – 29

hram777 [196]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\sf \ \ x=1, \ \ x=2+5i, \ \ x=2-5i \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

I assume that we are working in $\mathbb{C}$ , otherwise there is only one zero which is 1. Please consider the following.

First of all, we can notice that 1 is a trivial solution as

$p(1) = 1^3-5\cdot 1^2 + 33\cdot 1-29=1-5+33-29=0$

It means that (x-1) is a factor of p(x) so we can find two real numbers, a and b, so that we can write the following.

$p(x)=(x-1)(x^2+ax+b)=x^3+ax^2+bx-x^2-ax-b=x^3+(a-1)x^2+(b-a)x-b$

Let's identify like terms as below.

a-1 = -5 <=> a = -5 + 1 = -4

b-a = 33

-b = -29 <=> b = 29

$\boxed{ \ p(x)=(x-1)(x^2-4x+29) \ }$

Now, we need to find the zeroes of the second factor, meaning finding x so that:

$x^2-4x+29=0 \ \text{ complete the square, 29 = 25 + 4} \\ \\ x^2-2\cdot 2 \cdot x+2^2+25=0 \\ \\ (x-2)^2=-25=(5i)^2 \ \text{ take the root } \\ \\x-2=\pm 5i \ \text{ add 2 } \\ \\ x = 2+5i \ \text{ or } \ x = 2-5i$

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

6. 1 68 61 2 m21 = 3 m22= m23 -

Advocard [28]

1 = 51

2= 61

3= 29

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 61+68= 129

180-129= 51

2) 61 is across it so they have the same number

3) 61 +90= 151

180-151= 29

a language arts test is worth 100 points there is a total of 26 questions . there are spelling word questions that ae worth 2 po

natka813 [3]

10 question of spelling words and 16 questions of vocabulary are present

Solution:

Let "x" be the number of spelling word questions

Let "y" be the number of vocabulary word question

There is a total of 26 questions. Therefore, we get

number of spelling word questions + number of vocabulary word question = 26

x + y = 26 --------- eqn 1

There are spelling word questions that worth 2 points each and vocabulary word question worth 5 points each

The language arts test is worth 100 points

Therefore, we frame a equation as:

number of spelling word questions x 2 + number of vocabulary word question x 5 = 100

$x \times 2 + y \times 5 = 100$

2x + 5y = 100 --------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

From eqn 1,

x = 26 - y ------- eqn 3

Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2

2(26 - y) + 5y = 100

52 - 2y + 5y = 100

3y = 100 - 52

3y = 48

Substitute y = 16 in eqn 3

x = 26 - 16

Thus 10 question of spelling words and 16 questions of vocabulary are present
