Answer:

Complex roots for polynomials equations will always come in conjugate pairs.  Since 1-2i is a root, 1+2i will also be a root.  (Just switch the sign of the imaginary part to its opposite.)

Step-by-step explanation:

So far we have 1-2i and 1+2i as roots.  We need two more to make a 4th degree polynomial.

x=1 with multiplicity of 2 means that we count the root twice when we write down the polynomial: (x - 1)(x - 1) = (x - 1)2

Putting it all together, we can construct our polynomial of degree 4 as

y = f(x) = (x - 1)(x - 1)[x - (1-2i)][x - (1+2i)]

Multiply the factors (FOIL):

[x - (1-2i)][x - (1+2i)] =

x2 - (1+2i)x - (1-2i)x + (1-2i)(1+2i) =

x2 - x - 2ix - x + 2ix + (1 + 2i - 2i + 4) =

x2 - 2x + 5

(x - 1)(x - 1) = x2 - x - x + 1 = x2 - 2x + 1

Now multiply the two underlined expressions:

y = (x2 - 2x + 5)(x2 - 2x + 1)

= x4 - 2x3 + 5x2 - 2x3 + 4x2 - 10x + x2 - 2x + 5  by multiplying term by term

= x4 - 4x3 + 10x2 -12x + 5 by collecting like terms.

The following graph shows the distance Thomas is from his home (in meters) for a period of 2 minutes. Determine the average rate
irga5000 [103]
The answer:
<span>the average rate of change for the first 50 seconds:
it  is v= 100 m/ 50 s = 2 m/s
</span><span>Thomas speed is 2 m in each second for the first 50 seconds.

</span><span>The average rate of change for the 70 remaining seconds:
the time is between [70; 120]
so the distance is d= 200m - 40m= 160m
the average rate is
v= 160m / 70 s = 2 . 28m /s

Daniel [21]
To find the Chebyshev's inequality, P | Xn - E(X)| <= δ/4 >= 1 - (δ^2/25)/(δ^2/16) = 1 - (16/25) = 9/25 = 0.36
The answer in this question which is the probability that the average of the physicist's measurement is within δ/4 units of the actual specific gravity is at least 0.36%
