SOLVE x^4 − 15x^2 − 16 = 0 What are the roots of the equation?

Mathematics
1 answer:
kakasveta [241]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

roots : 4, -4, i, -i

Step-by-step explanation:

This gets a bit tricky.

We have to substitude x^2 as u in this problem.

Now to rewrite x^4 − 15x^2 − 16 = 0 with u, we get

u^2 - 15u - 16 = 0

( u - 16) (u + 1)

U = 16

U = -1

<em>This is not the end of the problem. </em>

Now we have to substitute x^2 back to u.

x^2 = 16  --> we get the roots 4 and -4

x^2 = -1 --> we get the roots i and -i

tadah!

El entrenamiento que hace marco 10 dias antes de su carrera es constante. Diariamente corre 45 minutos a una velocidad de 30 km-
alexira [117]

Responder:

225 kilometros

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que :

Velocidad de funcionamiento = 30 km / h

Duración = 45 minutos

Número de días = 10 días

Distancia total recorrida por día:

Duración en horas:

45 minutos / 60 = 0,75 hora (s)

Así, la distancia recorrida por día:

Tiempo de velocidad

30 km / h * 0,75 h = 22,5 km

Por lo tanto, la distancia total recorrida durante 10 días:

Distancia recorrida diariamente * 10

22,5 kilometros * 10 = 225 kilometros

A rectangle has a height to width ratio of 3:4.5. Give two examples of dimensions for rectangles that could be scaled versions o
OlgaM077 [116]

We have been given that a rectangle has a height to width ratio of 3:4.5.

Let h be height and w be width of rectangle.

We can set our given information in an equation as:

\frac{h}{w} =\frac{3}{4.5}

h=\frac{3}{4.5} *w

Now we will substitute h=1 in this equation.

1=\frac{3}{4.5} *w

3w=4.5

w=\frac{4.5}{3} =1.5

We can see that width of rectangle is 1.5 times height of rectangle.

Our one set of dimensions of rectangle will be: height=1 and width=1.5.

We can get many set of dimensions for our rectangle by multiplying both height and width of rectangle by same number.

Multiplying by 5 we will get our dimensions as: height 5 and width 7.5.  

Therefore, (1 and 1.5) and (5 and 7.5) dimensions for rectangle will be scaled version of our rectangle.
