5>x because you can subtract 5 from both sides and 3x from both sides
The general form of a polynomial is: x² + bx + c = 0. Substituting the roots,
3² + b(3) + c = 0
3b + c = -9 --> eqn 1
(5 + √5)² + (5 +√5)(b) + c = 0
(5+√5)b + c = -30-10√5 --> eqn 2
Solving both equations simultaneously by subtracting eqn 2 from eqn 1,
(-2 - √5)b = 21 + 10√5
b = -8 - √5
Using eqn 1,
3(-8 - √5) + c = -9
-24 - 3√5 + c = -9
c = -9 + 24 + 3√5
c = 15 + 3√5
Hence, the polynomial is: <em>f(x) = x² + (-8 - √5)x + (15 + 3√5)</em>.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, construct two equations.
Then, equal the two equations to each other like this -
x will be the years.
Type A. Type B
3x + 15 = 4x + 10
- 15. - 15
3x = 4x - 5
-4x. -4x
-x = -5
-x/-1 = -5/-1
x = 5
Check:
3(5) + 15 = 4(5) + 10
15 + 15 = 20 + 10
30 = 30
Therefore, the trees will be the same height in 5 years.
Use PEMDAS to solve
(Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)
Solve parenthesis first
<span>(1/3+9) x ( 8-3)
</span>28/3 x 5
Use Multiplication
28/3 x 5 ≈ 4.7
After rounding 4.7 should be your answer
