Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

Then lets break down the statement step by step:

"5 times a number" ----> 5x

"2 more than 5 times a number" ---> 5x + 2

"2 more than 5 times a number is 22" ---> 5x + 2 = 22

simply solve for x :

5x + 2 = 22 (subtract 2 from both sides)

5x = 22 - 2

5x = 20 (divide both sides by 5)

x = 20/5 = 4

A polynomial function of least degree with integral coefficients that has the

given zeros $f(x)=x^4+x^3+9x^2+9x$

Given

Given zeros are 3i, -1 and 0

complex zeros occurs in pairs. 3i is one of the zero

-3i is the other zero

So zeros are 3i, -3i, 0 and -1

Now we write the zeros in factor form

If 'a' is a zero then (x-a) is a factor

the factor form of given zeros

$\:\left(x-3i\right)\left(x-\left(-3i\right)\right)\left(x-0\right)\left(x-\left(-1\right)\right)\\\left(x-3i\right)\left(x+3i\right)\left(x-0\right)\left(x+1\right)$

Now we multiply it to get the polynomial

$x\left(x-3i\right)\left(x+3i\right)\left(x+1\right)\\x\left(x^2+9\right)\left(x+1\right)\\x\left(x^3+x^2+9x+9\right)\\x^4+x^3+9x^2+9x$
