Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y1 = 5.2

y2 = 1

x1 = 0

x2 = -1.5

Solution:

m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

m = ( 1 - 5.2 ) / ( -1.5 - 0 )

m = -4.2 / -1.5

m = 2.8

then

y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )

y - 5.2 = 2.8 ( x - 0 )

y - 5.2 = 2.8x - 0

y = 2.8x + 5.2

What are all of the real roots of the following polynomial? f(x) = x4 - 13x2 + 36

GREYUIT [131]

ANSWER

A. -3, -2, 2, and 3

EXPLANATION

The given polynomial function is,

$f(x) = {x}^{4} - 13 {x}^{2} + 36$

To find the real roots, we equate the function to zero to obtain;

${x}^{4} - 13 {x}^{2} + 36 = 0$

We can solve this equation as a quadratic equation in
${x}^{2}.$

Thus we rewrite the equation as,

$({x}^{2})^{2} - 13 {x}^{2} + 36 = 0$

We split the middle term to get,

$({x}^{2})^{2} - 9 {x}^{2} - 4 {x}^{2} + 36 = 0.$

We factor to get,

${x}^{2} ( {x}^{2} - 9) - 4( {x}^{2} - 9) = 0$

We factor to get,

$( {x}^{2} - 9)( {x}^{2} - 4) = 0$

Either

${x}^{2} - 9 = 0$
or

${x}^{2} - 4 = 0$

$x = \pm \sqrt{9} \: or \: x = \pm \sqrt{4}$
$x = \pm3 \: or \: x = \pm2$

$x=-3,-2,2,3$

The correct answer is A
