A polynomial of degree n with roots
can be represented as:
, where A is a constant (The same "a" that appears outside the parentheses in the field where you will type the polynomial). In this question, the number of roots is 4, because the degree of f(x) is 4. If a polynomial has only real coefficients, the complex roots appear in pairs of conjugates. So, since
is a zero,
is a zero too. Then, we have the 4 zeros. Hence,
will be in the form:
44 because the absolute values are 131 and 87 and to find difference you subtract.
Answer:
m=-2
Explanation:
If a line passes through the points (4,5) and (2,9): to calculate the slope, use the formula below:
Substituting the points, we have:
The slope of this line is -2.
Ray wants to buy an item worth 500$ in the most cost-effective way. Let's study each of the 3 cases and see with option is the best.
In the first option, he'll buy the item at list price with a coupon for $10 off. So he'll buy it at 500-10 =$490.
In the second option, he'll buy a membership for $35 and then get the item at a 15% discount. With a 15% discount, the price of the item will be 500 - (500*0.15) = 500 - 75 = $425. And with the membership price, he'll pay a total of 425 + 35 = $460.
The third option is to buy the item online at a 10% discount and pay $4 for the shipping. At 10% discount, the price of the item will be 500 - (500*0.1) = 500 - 50 = $450. And with cost of the shipping, he'll pay a total of 450+4 = $454.
So if he chooses the first option, he'll pay $490. With the second, he'll pay $460. And finally with the third, he'll pay $454.
So the third option is the most cost-effective, buying the item at $454.
Hope this helps! :)
