(c) Given That Q= 8d^2, Find The Other Two Real Roots.

Answers

Answer 1

Polynomials

Given the equation:

[tex]x^5-3x^4+mx^3+nx^2+px+q=0[/tex]

Where all the coefficients are real numbers, and it has 3 real roots of the form:

[tex]x_1=\log _2a,x_2=\log _2b,x_3=\log _2c[/tex]

It has two imaginary roots of the form: di and -di. Recall both roots must be conjugated.

a) Knowing the sum of the roots must be equal to the inverse negative of the coefficient of the fourth-degree term:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \log _2a+\log _2b+\log _2c+di-di=3 \\ \text{Simplifying:} \\ \log _2a+\log _2b+\log _2c=3 \\ \text{Apply log property:} \\ \log _2(abc)=3 \\ abc=2^3 \\ abc=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

b) It's additionally given the values of a, b, and c are consecutive terms of a geometric sequence. Assume that sequence has first term a1 and common ratio r, thus:

[tex]a=a_1,b=a_1\cdot r,c=a_1\cdot r^2[/tex]

Using the relationship found in a):

[tex]\begin{gathered} a_1\cdot a_1\cdot r\cdot a_1\cdot r^2=8 \\ \text{Simplifying:} \\ (a_1\cdot r)^3=8 \\ a_1\cdot r=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

As said above, the real roots are:

[tex]x_1=\log _2a,x_2=\log _2b,x_3=\log _2c[/tex]

Since b = a1*r, then b = 2, thus:

[tex]x_2=\log _22=1[/tex]

One of the real roots has been found to be 1. We still don't know the others.

c) We know the product of the roots of a polynomial equals the inverse negative of the independent term, thus:

[tex]\log _2a_1\cdot2\cdot\log _2(a_1\cdot r^2)\cdot(di)\cdot(-di)=-q[/tex]

Since q = 8 d^2:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \log _2a_1\cdot2\cdot\log _2(a_1\cdot r^2)\cdot(di)\cdot(-di)=-8d^2 \\ \text{Operate:} \\ 2\log _2a_1\cdot\log _2(a_1\cdot r^2)\cdot(-d^2i^2)=-8d^2 \\ \log _2a_1\cdot\log _2(a_1\cdot r^2)=-8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

From the relationships obtained in a) and b):

[tex]a_1=\frac{2}{r}[/tex]

Substituting:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \log _2(\frac{2}{r})\cdot\log _2(2r)=-8 \\ By\text{ property of logs:} \\ (\log _22-\log _2r)\cdot(\log _22+\log _2r)=-8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (1-\log _2r)\cdot(1+\log _2r)=-8 \\ (1-\log ^2_2r)=-8 \\ \text{Solving:} \\ \log ^2_2r=9 \end{gathered}[/tex]

We'll take the positive root only:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \log _2r=3 \\ r=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]a_1=\frac{2}{8}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The other roots are:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x_1=\log _2\frac{1}{4}=-2 \\ x_3=\log _216=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Real roots: -2, 1, 4

2. The area of the arena is 2160 in.2 a) Will the arena fit on the rug? Show your work and explain your answer below. b) If the length of the arena is 60 inches, what is the width? c) If the arena fits, and is placed exactly in the middle of the rug, how much standing room on the rug could a drive have? Use your measurements from above to help you. ? 3. If 15 robots can fit on the arena floor at one time, how much space does each robot take up?

Answers

Answers:

2a. The arena will fit on the rug

b. Width = 36 in

c. Standing room: 4 in

3. 144 in²

Explanation:

2. Part a.

First, we need to convert the measures of the rug to inches, so taking into account that 1 ft = 12 in, we get

Length = 6 ft x 12 in/ 1ft = 72 in

Width = 4 ft x 12 in/ 1 ft = 48 in

Then, the area of the rug will be

Area = Length x Width

Area = 72 in x 48 in

Area = 3456 in²

Therefore, the area of the arena, which is 2160 in² is lower than the area of the rug. It means that the area will fit on the rug.

Part b.

The area of the arena is equal to

Area = Length x Width

To find the width of the area, we need to solve the equation for the width, so

Width = Area/Length

So, replacing Area = 2160 in² and Length = 60 in, we get

Width = 2160 in² / 60 in

Width = 36 in

Therefore, the width of the area is 36 in.

Part c.

The measures that we get from parts a and b can be represented as

Therefore, the missing length can be calculated as:

(48 in - 36 in)/2 = 12 in/ 2 = 6 in

Therefore, a drive will have 6 in of standing room.

3.

Finally, to know how much space each robot take up, we need to divide the area of the arena by 15, so

2160 in²/ 15 = 144 in²

Therefore, each robot take 144 in²

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y = 1/2x -4 and that passes through the point (9, -6)

What is equation of line in slope intercept form?

The most general form of equation of line in slope intercept form is given by [tex]y = mx + c[/tex]

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y intercept of the line.

Slope of a line is the tangent of the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis.

If [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis, then slope (m) is given by

m = [tex]tan\theta[/tex]

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the x axis is the x intercept of the line

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the y axis is the y intercept of the line

Here,

The given equation of line is [tex]y = \frac{1}{2} x - 4[/tex]

Slope of this line = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Slope of the line parallel to this line = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The line passes through (9 , -6)

Equation of the required line =

[tex]y - (-6) = \frac{1}{2}(x - 9)\\2y + 12 = x - 9\\2y = x - 9 -12\\2y = x -21\\y = \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{21}{2}[/tex]

Saltarecis a maker of high-end apparel for woman. For market research one afternoon, Saltare’s sales team surveyed adult women at a busy airport on the number of blouses they own. The histogram below summarizes the data. Use the histogram to answer each of the questions

Answers

(a)

The class width of the histogram is given by the range of each bar in the histogram, that is, the upper limit minus the lower limit of a bar (plus 1, since we need to include the boundary values of the range).

Looking at the first bar, the upper limit is 19 and the lower limit is 11, therefore the class width is 9 (because there are 9 elements between 11 and 19, so we need to add 1 to the subtraction of 19 and 11)

(b)

The most frequent class is the third one (third vertical bar).

The frequency of this bar (that is, the value in the y-axis) is equal to 8.

Therefore 8 women are in this class.

(c)

The number of women with 28 or fewer blouses is given by the frequency of the first two bars.

Adding the frequency of the first bar (1) and the frequency of the second bar (5), we have that 6 women have 28 or fewer blouses.

Use Polya's four-step problem-solving strategy and the problem-solving procedures presented in this section to solve the following exercise.A shirt and a tie together cost $68. The shirt costs $30 more than the tie. What is the cost of the shirt (in dollars).

Answers

Let x and y be the cost of a shirt and a tie, respectively; therefore, the two equations are

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=68 \\ \text{and} \\ x=30+y \end{gathered}[/tex]

We have two variables and two equations; we need to solve the system of equations to find the values of x and y.

Solve using the substitution method.

Use the second equation into the first equation, as shown below

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=30+y \\ \Rightarrow(30+y)+y=68 \\ \Rightarrow30+2y=68 \\ \Rightarrow2y=68-30=38 \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{38}{2} \\ \Rightarrow y=19 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, use this value of y in the second equation

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=19 \\ \Rightarrow x=30+y=30+19 \\ \Rightarrow x=49 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Remember that x is the cost of a shirt and y is the cost of a tie. Therefore, the answers are

Cost of a shirt: $49

Cost of a tie: $19

One can verify the answer by noticing that a shirt and a tie cost $49+$19=$68, and that a shirt costs $30+$19=$49

Line equation in slope and y-intercept form:

y = mx + b

To calculate the slope, we use the first two points: (24,-15) and (28, -17)

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

m = (-17 - (-15))/(28 - 24)

m = (-17 + 15)/(4

m = -2/4 = -1/2

To find b we use the first point: (24, -15)

y = mx + b

b = y - mx = -15 - (-1/2)(24) = -15 + 12 = -3

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 9cm shorter than the longer leg. The hypotenuse is 9cm longer than the longer leg. Find the side lengths of the triangle.Length of the shorter leg: _ cmLength of the longer leg:__ cmLength of hypotenuse __ cm

Answers

Explanation:

let the longer leg = x

The shorter leg = 9cm shorter than the longer leg

The shorter leg = x - 9

hypotenuse = 9cm longer than the longer leg

hypotenuse = x + 9

Using pythagoras theorem:

hypotenuse² = shorter leg² + longer leg²

(x + 9)² = x² + (x - 9)²

Expanding:

x² + 9x + 9x + 81 = x² + x ² - 9x -9x + 81

x² + 18x + 81 = 2x² -18x + 81

collect like terms:

18x + 18x + 81 - 81 = 2x² - x²

36x + 0 = x²

x² - 36x = 0

x(x - 36) = 0

x = 0 or (x - 36) = 0

x = 0 or x = 36

if x = 0

shorter side = x - 9 = 0 - 9 = -9

Since the length cannot be negative, x = 36

The longer leg = x = 36 cm

The shorter leg = x - 9 = 36 - 9

The shorter leg = 27cm

The hypotenuse = x + 9 = 36 + 9

The hypotenuse = 45 cm

Answers

Given : Two groups

Group A: contains 390 people.

Three fifths of the people in group A will be selected to win $100 fuel cards.

So, the number of people who will win = 3/5 * 390 = 234

Group B : contains 553 people

the group will receive the same number of fuel cards

so, the group will receive 234 cards

The non-winners of group A = 390 - 234 = 156

The non-winners of group B = 553 - 234 = 319

The ratio between them = 156 : 319

how do I find the perimeter of a quadrilateral on a graph?

Answers

The perimeter of a figure is always the sum of the lengths of the sides.

If we have the coordinates of the vertices of the quadrilateral, we can calculate the length of each side as the distance between the vertices.

For example, the length of a side AB will be the distance between the points A and B:

[tex]d=\sqrt[]{(x_b-x_a)^2+\mleft(y_b-y_a\mright)^2}[/tex]

Adding the length of the four sides will give the perimeter of the quadrilateral.

write an equation in slope intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the equation(-3, -5); y = -5x+2

Answers

The equation is y = -5x-20.

GIven:

The equation is, y = -5x + 2.

A point on the line is (-3, 5).

The objective is to write an equation that passes throught the point and parallel to the given equation.

For parallel lines the product of slope values will be equal.

From the given equation, consider the slope of the equation as, m1 = -5.

Then, the slope of the parallel line will also be, m2 = -5.

Then, the equation of parallel line can be written as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=m_2x+b \\ y=-5x+b \end{gathered}[/tex]

Here b represents the y intercept of the parellel line.

To find the value of b, substitute the given points in the above equation.

[tex]\begin{gathered} -5=-5(-3)+b \\ -5=15+b \\ b=-5-15 \\ b=-20 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, substitute the value of b in the equation of parellel line.

[tex]y=-5x-20[/tex]

Hence, the equation of parellel line is y = -5x-20.

9. The Elite Vacuum Company has determined its cost for making vacuums to beC = 24V + 1000, where C is the cost in dollars and V is the number of vacuums.If the cost must be between $49,000 and $121,000, how many vacuums can they makeper week? (You must set up and solve an inequality.)

Answers

We are given the relationship between the cost in dollars (C) and the number of vacuums (V) to be:

[tex]C\text{ = 24V + 1000}[/tex]

From the constraint, we have that the cost(C) must be greater than $49000 and less than $121000

Writing this as inequality:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 24V\text{ + 1000 }\ge\text{ 49000 } \\ 24V\text{ + 1000 }\leq\text{ 121000} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Solving the linear inequalities for V:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 24V\text{ + 1000 }\ge\text{ 49000} \\ 24V\text{ }\ge\text{ 49000 - 1000} \\ 24V\text{ }\ge\text{ 48000} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 24} \\ \frac{24V}{24}\text{ }\ge\text{ }\frac{48000}{24} \\ V\text{ }\ge\text{ 2000} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Similarly for the second inequality:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 24V\text{ + 1000 }\leq\text{ 121000} \\ 24V\text{ }\leq121000\text{ - 1000} \\ 24V\text{ }\leq\text{ 120000} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 24} \\ \frac{24V}{24}\text{ }\leq\text{ }\frac{120000}{24} \\ V\text{ }\leq5000 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the number of vacuums they can make per week can be between 2000 and 5000 or in inequality:

[tex]2000\text{ }\leq\text{ V }\leq\text{ 5000}[/tex]

Answer:

Find the perimeter of the rectangle. Write your answer in scientific notation.Area = 5.612 times 10^14 cm squared9.2 times 10^7cm is one side of the perimeter

Answers

Answer: Perimeter = 1.962 x 10^8 cm

Explanation:

The first step is to calculate the width of the rectangle. Recall,

Area = length x width

width = Area /length

From the information given,

Area = 5.612 times 10^14 cm squared

Length = 9.2 times 10^7cm

Thus,

width = 5.612 times 10^14 /9.2 times 10^7

width = 6.1 x 10^6

The formula for calculating the perimeter is

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Thus,

Perimeter = 2(9.2 x 10^7 + 6.1 x 10^6)

Perimeter = 1.962 x 10^8 cm

Shawn needs to reach a windowsill that is 10 feet above the ground. He placed his ladder 4 feet from the base of the wall. It reached the base of the window.

a. Draw a diagram of the right triangle formed by Shawn's ladder, the ground and the wall.

b. Find the length of Shawn's ladder to the nearest tenth of a foot.​

Answers

If shown needs to reach a windowsill that is 10 feet above the ground and he placed his ladder 4 feet from the base of the wall.

Part a

The diagram of the right triangle formed by Shawn's ladder, the ground and wall has been plotted

Part b

The length of the Shawn's ladder is 10 foot

The distance between ladder base to the base of the wall = 4 feet

The distance between the wall base to the base of the window = 10 feet

Draw the right triangle using the given details

Part b

Using the Pythagorean theorem

[tex]AC^2= AB^2+BC^2[/tex]

Where AC is the length of the ladder

Substitute the values in the equation

AC = [tex]\sqrt{10^2+4^2}[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{100+16}[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{116}[/tex]

= 10.77

≈ 10 Foot

Hence, if shown needs to reach a windowsill that is 10 feet above the ground and he placed his ladder 4 feet from the base of the wall.

Part a

The diagram of the right triangle formed by Shawn's ladder, the ground and wall has been plotted

Part b

The length of the Shawn's ladder is 10 foot
