D = 25 ft is the length of a shadow. L - the length of a tree.
Two angles are 85° and 65° and the third is 180° - ( 65° + 85° ) =
= 180° - 150° = 30°.
We will use the Sine Law:
25 / sin 30° = L / sin 65°
25 / 0.5 = L / 0.9063
25 * 0.9063 = 0.5 L
22.6577 = 0.5 L
L = 22.6577 : 0.5
L = 45.3 ft.
Answer: the approximate length of the tree is 45.3 ft.
Solving for the polynomial function of least degree with
integral coefficients whose zeros are -5, 3i
We have:
x = -5
Then x + 5 = 0
Therefore one of the factors of the polynomial function is
(x + 5)
Also, we have:
x = 3i
Which can be rewritten as:
x = Sqrt(-9)
Square both sides of the equation:
x^2 = -9
x^2 + 9 = 0
Therefore one of the factors of the polynomial function is (x^2
+ 9)
The polynomial function has factors: (x + 5)(x^2 + 9)
= x(x^2 + 9) + 5(x^2 + 9)
= x^3 + 9x + 5x^2 = 45
Therefore, x^3 + 5x^2 + 9x – 45 = 0
f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 + 9x – 45
The polynomial function of least degree with integral coefficients
that has the given zeros, -5, 3i is f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 + 9x – 45
Answer:
The combined mean can be calculated by plugging in our numbers into the formula given: [(57*82)+(23*63)/(57+23)]=76.5
4x was subtracted from both sides. Then, -8 was divided from both sides. Lastly, 1/2x was placed in front of -2.
