Hello!!

= 6x^2 - 5x - 125

= x (6x - 5) - 125

= (6x + 25) (x - 5)

Good luck :)

Question (c)! How do I know that t^5-10t^3+5t=0?<br> Thanks!
astra-53 [7]
(a) By DeMoivre's theorem, we have

(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)^5=\cos5\theta+i\sin5\theta

On the LHS, expanding yields

\cos^5\theta+5i\cos^4\theta\sin\theta-10\cos^3\theta\sin^2\theta-10i\cos^2\theta\sin^3\theta+5\cos\theta\sin^4\theta+i\sin^4\theta

Matching up real and imaginary parts, we have for (i) and (ii),


\cos5\theta=\cos^5\theta-10\cos^3\theta\sin^2\theta+5\cos\theta\sin^4\theta
\sin5\theta=5\cos^4\theta\sin\theta-10\cos^2\theta\sin^3\theta+\sin^5\theta

(b) By the definition of the tangent function,

\tan5\theta=\dfrac{\sin5\theta}{\cos5\theta}
=\dfrac{5\cos^4\theta\sin\theta-10\cos^2\theta\sin^3\theta+\sin^5\theta}{\cos^5\theta-10\cos^3\theta\sin^2\theta+5\cos\theta\sin^4\theta}

=\dfrac{5\tan\theta-10\tan^3\theta+\tan^5\theta}{1-10\tan^2\theta+5\tan^4\theta}
=\dfrac{t^5-10t^3+5t}{5t^4-10t^2+1}


(c) Setting \theta=\dfrac\pi5, we have t=\tan\dfrac\pi5 and \tan5\left(\dfrac\pi5\right)=\tan\pi=0. So

0=\dfrac{t^5-10t^3+5t}{5t^4-10t^2+1}

At the given value of t, the denominator is a non-zero number, so only the numerator can contribute to this reducing to 0.


0=t^5-10t^3+5t\implies0=t^4-10t^2+5

Remember, this is saying that

0=\tan^4\dfrac\pi5-10\tan^2\dfrac\pi5+5

If we replace \tan^2\dfrac\pi5 with a variable x, then the above means \tan^2\dfrac\pi5 is a root to the quadratic equation,

x^2-10x+5=0

Also, if \theta=\dfrac{2\pi}5, then t=\tan\dfrac{2\pi}5 and \tan5\left(\dfrac{2\pi}5\right)=\tan2\pi=0. So by a similar argument as above, we deduce that \tan^2\dfrac{2\pi}5 is also a root to the quadratic equation above.

(d) We know both roots to the quadratic above. The fundamental theorem of algebra lets us write

x^2-10x+5=\left(x-\tan^2\dfrac\pi5\right)\left(x-\tan^2\dfrac{2\pi}5\right)

Expand the RHS and match up terms of the same power. In particular, the constant terms satisfy

5=\tan^2\dfrac\pi5\tan^2\dfrac{2\pi}5\implies\tan\dfrac\pi5\tan\dfrac{2\pi}5=\pm\sqrt5

But \tanx>0 for all 0, as is the case for x=\dfrac\pi5 and x=\dfrac{2\pi}5, so we choose the positive root.

ali wants to buy a piano the piano measures 19/4 feet long she has a space 5 feet long for the paino in her house. does she have
IceJOKER [234]
Yes. This is because 19/4 as a mixed number is 4 3/4. 4 3/4 < 5. It might be a tight fit but she has enough room

Lines l and m intersect at point p and are perpendicular. if a point q is reflected across l and then across m, what transformat
artcher [175]
Rotating 180 degrees about the point p. 

If they are perpendicular reflecting across each one will have the same effect as if the point was rotated 180 degrees about the certain point.

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Part A: Both functions' slopes increase at intervals of four in a positive manner, so they will rise to the right.

Part B: g(x) has a greater y intercept as it is y=3 and f(x) is y=-1

how much wrapping paper would you need to cover a rectangular that is 18.25 inches by 12inches by 3 inches if you need 10% more
natita [175]

Answer: 681 square inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, we have to apply the formula for the surface area:

A = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

Where:

w: width

l: length

h: height

Replacing with the values given:

A = (2x12x18.25) + (2x12x3)+(2x18.25x3)

A= 438+72+109.25

A=619.5 in2

Since it has to be 10% more than the surface.

619.5 x (10/100) = 61.95 in2

Adding that value to the surface area

619.5+61.95 = 681.45in2 = 681 in2
