How many and of which kind of roots does the equation
f(x) = x5+ 3x4 + 8x3 + 14x2 + 16x + 8 have?
A. 2 real; 3 complex
B.5 real
C. 3 real;2 complex
D.1 real;4 complex

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 1 real; 4 complex  

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate the total number of roots

The fundamental theorem of algebra states that any polynomial of degree n has n roots.

Your polynomial is fifth degree, so it has five roots.

2. Calculate the number of real roots

We can use Descartes' rule of signs to determine the number of real roots:

The number of positive real roots is the same as the number of changes in the sign of the coefficients of ƒ(x) or less than by an even number.

The number of negative real roots is the same as the number of changes in sign of the coefficients of the terms of f(-x) or less than this by an even number.

(a) Number of positive real roots

The coefficients of ƒ(x) are

+1 +3 +8 +14 +16 + 8  

There are no changes of sign, so there are no positive real roots.

(b) Number of negative real roots

(i) Find f(-x)

f(-x) = -x⁵+ 3x⁴ - 8x³ + 14x² - 16x + 8

(ii) Count the changes of sign

The coefficients of f(-x) are

-1 ∥ +3 ∥ -8 ∥+14 ∥ -16 ∥ +8

There are five changes of sign.

Thus, the number of negative roots is five, three, or one.

So far, we know that we have five roots. None is positive, and there could be one, three, or five negative real roots.

3. Confirm by sketching the graph

The real roots are the points at which the graph crosses or touches the x-axis.

The graph (see below) crosses the x-axis at only one point.

Thus. we have

one real root (negative) four complex roots

Two pipes A and B can fill an empty tank in 3hrs and 5hrs respectively. Pipe C can empty the full tank in 6 hours. If the three pipes A, B, and Care opened at the same time, find how long it will take for the tank to be full. *​

Answers

Answer:

30/11 (hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

Pipe A can fill the tank until it is full in 3 hours.

=> In 1 hour, pipe A can fill 1/3 of tank

Pipe B can fill the tank until it is full in 5 hours.

=> In 1 hour, pipe A can fill 1/5 of tank

Pipe C can empty the full tank in 6 hours.

=> In 1 hour, pipe A can empty 1/6 of tank

Assume that we open 3 pipes A, B, and C at the same time.

Then, in 1 hour, the amount of water in tank is:

A =  1/3 + 1/5 - 1/6 = 10/30 + 6/30 - 5/30 = 11/30 (tank)

=> The time to fill up the tank is:

T = 1/A = 1/(11/30) = 30/11 (hours)

Answer:

30/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine the tank can hold x litre of water

So,A can fill x/3 litre water per hour

And B can fill x/5 litre water per hour

And C can reduce x/6 litre of water per hour which is filled by A and B.

So the gross calculation per hour is:

(x/3+x/5)-x/6

=11x/30

Now suppose it tooks 'a' hour to fill the tank.

So, a(11x/30)=x

⇨ a= (30/11x)x

⇨a=30/11

NEED IN NEXT HOUR solve the following equation: 20= 4t -5t^2

Answers

Answer:

2/5 ±i4/5sqrt(6)= t

Step-by-step explanation:

20= 4t -5t^2

Rewriting

20 = -5t^2 +4t

Divide by -5

20 = -5t^2 +4t

20/-5 = -5/-5t^2 +4/-5t

-4 = t^2 -4/5 t

Complete the square

Take the coefficient of t

-4/5

Divide by 2

-4/10 = -2/5

Square it

(-2/5)^2 = 4/25

Add to each side

-4 +4/25 = t^2 -4/5 t + 4/25

-100/25+4/25 = ( t-2/5)^2

-96/25 = ( t-2/5)^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(-96/25) = sqrt(( t-2/5)^2)

±isqrt(96/25)=( t-2/5)

±i4/5sqrt(6)=( t-2/5)

Add 2/5 to each side

2/5 ±i4/5sqrt(6)= t

The parabola is positive so there are no values where the graph is negative

Answer:

No real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1: Factoring the quadratic

The equation is in quadratic form - ax² + bx + c = 0.

Therefore, we can use a factoring technique to solve for x. I will use the quadratic formula - [tex]x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}[/tex].

[tex]x=\frac{-(-10)\pm \sqrt{(-10)^{2}-4(1)(25)} }{2(1)}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{100-4(25)} }{2}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{100-100}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{0}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm0}{2}\\\\x=\frac{10}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=5}[/tex]

Part 2: Using discriminant to determine roots

Because the discriminant (square root portion of formula) was equivalent to zero, this is the only solution that proves the equation correctly. Therefore, there is no possible negative value that can be substituted for x  without altering the final value that the equation is equal to.

11 crayons after lunch. How many crayons did the teacher have at the start of the
day?

Answers

Answer:

30 crayons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of crayons he started with

gave out 14 crayons

x-14

Got 12 back

x-14+12

Gave out 11 after lunch

x-14+12 -11

This equals 17

x-14+12 -11 =17

Combine like terms

x-13 = 17

Add 13 to each side

x -13+13 =17+13

x = 30

Answer: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem work backwards. Start from 17 and add 14. You should get 31. Then subtract 12, which equals 19. Finally add 11 to 19, which equals 30. Basically you are doing the inverse operation to get your answer. Hope this helps!

3) 194.68 kilo litters

Step By Step Explanation

Sister these questions are related to volume of cylinder.

You need to use this formula πr²h [ Where r is radius and h is height or depth]

_______________________________________

3)

Given:

Diameter = 4m

Therefore radius = 2m

Depth is 31/2 m

To Find:

How many kilo litters will it hold ?

Actually It's asking about Volume.

Solution:

You know, volume = πr²h

[tex] = \pi {(2 \: m)}^{2} \times ( \dfrac{31}{2})m[/tex]

[tex] = 3.14 \times 4 \: {m}^{2} \times \dfrac{31}{2} m[/tex]

[tex] = \: 62 \times 3.14 \times {m}^{3} \sf [\because \: {m}^{3} = kilolitters][/tex]

[tex] = \sf 194.68 \: \: kilolitters[/tex]

_______________________________________

1)

Given:

Diameter = 14 cm

[tex] \sf \therefore \: radius \: = 7 \: cm[/tex]

height = 20 cm

Diameter of other cylinder = 20 cm

[tex] \sf \therefore \: radius = 10 \: cm[/tex]

To Find:

Deep of water in other cylinder

Consider the depth of water be x

Solution:

Volume of water will remain constant in both

So,

[tex]V_1 = V_2[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: \pi {(r_1)}^{2} h_1 = \pi {( r_2 )}^{2} h_2[/tex]

[Eliminating π from both sides]

[tex] {(7)}^{2} \times 20= {(10)}^{2}x[/tex]

[tex]49 \times 20 = 100x [/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{49 \times 2}{10} [/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{98}{10} \implies \: 9.8[/tex]

Therefore the required value of x is 9.8 cm .

If the scale factor is 2/7 divide 12 by 2 which is 6. 6 is 1/7 and if Figure a is 7/7

multiply 6 by 7 to get x. That would be 42.

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale factor is [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex], we know that the bigger shape went to the smaller shape.

If we know that the smaller shape's side, 12, is [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] of the bigger one, we can make the equation

[tex]\frac{2}{7}x = 12[/tex].

To solve for x, we can divide both sides by  [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex].

[tex]x = 12\div{\frac{2}{7}}[/tex]

We can multiply by the reciprocal:

[tex]\frac{12}{1} \cdot \frac{7}{2} = \frac{84}{2} = 42[/tex]

Is the function g(x) increasing or decreasing over the interval -2 < x Read the Greek myth "Midas" retold by Thomas Bulfinch and answer the question. [1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity. [2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice. [3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold. [4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day. Select two key details that could be included in a summary of the myth. Bacchus granted Midas's wish to have the golden touch. Bacchus sometimes found his teacher Silenus missing. Midas entertained Silenus in his kingdom for ten days. Midas received a wish for returning Silenus to Bacchus. Silenus was found by peasants and carried to Midas.
