Write a polynomial f(x) that satisfies the given conditions.
8
Degree 3 polynomial with integer coefficients with zeros -5i and
5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  f(x) = x^3 -5x^2 +25x -125

Step-by-step explanation:

For zero x=a, one of the factors is (x -a). If the polynomial has integer coefficients, its complex roots come in conjugate pairs. So, the roots are ...

  roots: -5i, 5i, 5

  factors: (x -(-5i))(x -5i)(x -5)

Multiplying these out gives your polynomial as ...

  f(x) = (x^2 +25)(x -5)

  f(x) = x^3 -5x^2 +25x -125

Answer:

58 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph attached,

Area of the figure = Area of the rectangle A + Area of two squares B and C

Area of rectangle A = Length × width

                                 = 10 × 5

                                 = 50 square units

Area of the square B = (Side)²

                                   = (2)²

                                   = 4 square units

Similarly area of the square C = 2² = 4 square units

Area of the total figure = 50 + 4 + 4

                                      = 58 square units

Therefore, 58 square units will be the answer.

A regular polygon has 10 sides. What is the measure of each interior angle of the polygon? 36° 1440° 144° 72°

Answers

Answer:

144°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

Here n = 10, thus

sum = 180° × 8 = 1440°

Each interior angle = 1440° ÷ 10 = 144°

Answer:

144 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the measures of the angles of a polygon with n sides:

(n -2)180

For a 10-sided polygon, n = 10.

The sum of the measures is

(10 - 2)180 = (8)180 = 1440

Since the polygon is regular, all angles have the same measure, so the measure of 1 angle is

1440/10 = 144

Answer: 144 deg

Lacey's mom makes her a birthday cake in the shape of an "L" . Lacey loves frosting, so her mom covers the entire outside of the cake in frosting, even the bottom of the cake. How much space does Lacey's mom cover in frosting?

Answers

Answer:

1360cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the shape of the cake is in L shape, we can divide the cake in to rectangles..

The amount of space covered by the frosting = The sum of the areas of the sides that we can find in this L shaped cake diagram.

The sides of this cake, are shaped like a rectangle.

Hence, Area of a Rectangle = Length × Width

a) Side 1 = Rectangle on the left

Area of a Rectangle = Length × Breadth

Length = 30cm

Breadth =10cm

Area = 30 × 10 = 300cm²

Since we have another side with this measurement/ dimensions also,

Side 2 = 300cm²

Side 3 = The front face of the cube by the right

Area of a Rectangle = Length × Breadth

Length = 22cm - 10cm = 12cm

Breadth =10cm

Area = 12 × 10 = 120cm²

Likewise, we have the another side with the same dimensions as well

Hence, Side 4 = 120cm²

Side 5

30 × 5 = 150cm²

Side 6

10 × 5 = 50cm²

Side 7

20 × 5 = 100cm²

Side 8

22cm × 5 cm = 110cm²

Side 9

10cm × 5cm = 50cm²

Side 10

12cm × 5cm = 60cm²

The amount of space covered by the frosting = Area of Sides( 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10)

= (300 + 300 + 120 + 120 + 150 + 50 + 100 + 110 + 50 + 60) cm²

= 1360cm²

We start by rewriting the expression

3p²q² - 3p²q³ +4p²q³ -3p²q² + pq

Collect like terms

3p²q² -3p²q² - 3p²q³ +4p²q³ + pq

Let ABC be an equilateral triangle. How many squares in the same plane as ABC share two vertices with the triangle?

Answers

Answer:

9 squares

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral has three equal sides.  You can have two squares on each side: AB, one in which the triangle, ABC, falls within the square and the other where the square does not contain the triangle, ABC.  You can also have two squares on each side - BC, one in which the triangle, ABC, falls within the square and the other where the square does not contain the triangle, ABC.  Again, you can have two squares on each side - CA, one in which the triangle, ABC, falls within the square and the other where the square does not contain the triangle, ABC.  In addition, AB, BC and CA can be a diagonal of squares.  

TL;DR

In conclusion, you have 9 squares in all - 3 as diagonals of squares and 6 as sides of squares. Brainliest appreciated!

No square shares more than two vertices with the equilateral triangle, so we can find the number of squares having two of their vertices at two given points and triple the result. Given 2 points, 3 squares may be drawn having these points as vertices. The figure below shows a red equilateral triangle with the 3 squares that correspond to one of the sides of the triangle. Therefore, 9 squares share two vertices with the equilateral triangle.

Determine whether these two functions are inverses. Show your work please. f(x)=3x+27; g(x)= 1/3x+9

Answers

Answer:

Proved.

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions are:

1.) f(x) = 3x - 27 (* I am giving an answer using this equation. Perhaps you did't copy the question well!)

2.) g(x) = [tex]\frac{1}{3} x[/tex] + 9

If two functions are inverses of each other, then:

f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x situation must be satisfied.

f(g(x)) = 3([tex]\frac{1}{3}x + 9[/tex]) + 27

We simply it to get;

f(g(x)) = x - 27 + 27 = x (*This is correct)

g(f(x)) = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex](3x - 27) + 9 = x - 9 + 9 = x (* This is also correct!)

Answers

Answer: 0.00000565

Step-by-step explanation:

Required to win:

6 number match $10,000

5 number match $ 5,000

4 number match $ 1000

3 number match $ 5,00

2 number match $ 50

1 number match $ 10

Therefore, to win $10,000 ;

All 6 numbers must match

Number of right numbers = 6

Total numbers = 25

Since it is without replacement :

Probability = required outcomes / Total possible outcomes

P(First number match) = 6/25

P(second number match) = 5/24

P(third number match) = 4/23

P(fourth number match) = 3/22

P(fifth number match) = 2/21

P(sixth number match) = 1 / 20

Therefore, Probability of winning $10000 :

(6/25) * (5/24) * (4/23) * (3/22) * (2/21) * (1/20) = 720 / 127512000 = 0.0000056465

Answer:

Area = 19.9 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find Angle V.

m < V = 180 - (131 + 27) (sum of angles in a triangle)

V = 22°

Step 2: Find UW using the law of sines.

[tex] \frac{UW}{sin(V)} = \frac{UV}{sin(W)} [/tex]

Plug in your values

[tex] \frac{UW}{sin(22)} = \frac{8}{sin(27)} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by sin(22) to solve for UW

[tex] \frac{UW*sin(22)}{sin(22)} = \frac{8*sin(22)}{sin(27)} [/tex]

[tex] UW = \frac{8*sin(22)}{sin(27)} [/tex]

[tex] UW = 6.6 mm [/tex]

Step 3: Find the area of ∆UVW

Area = ½*UW*UV*Sin(U)

Area = ½*6.6*8*sin(131)

Area = 3.3*8*sin(131)

Area = 19.9 mm² (to the nearest tenth)

In quadrilateral ABCD, angle BAD and angle CDA are trisected as shown. What is the degree measure of angle AFD?

Answers

Answer: AFD = 80

Explanation:

110 + 100 + 3x + 3y = 360
210 + 3x + 3y = 360
3x + 3y = 150
3(x + y) = 150
x + y = 50

Now look at polygon ABCDF (5 sided polygon)

100 + 110 + x + y + Angle F = 540
210 + 50 + angle F = 540
260 + angle F = 540
Angle F = 280

And:
angle F + AFD = 360 degree
280 + AFD = 360
AFD = 80

The value of y can be obtained by using the following trig ratio:

Tan θ = Opposite /Adjacent

Tan 23° = 13/y

Cross multiply

PLEASE HELP MEE I need help finding x a b and c

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem, both the base angles of that triangle measure a. We also know that a + b = 180 because of the definition of supplementary angles. So we have 2 equations from that info. First is the fact that

a + 7x = 180 and the second is

2x + a + a = 180 because of the Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem. If the left side of the first equation = 180 and the left side of the second equation also = 180, then by the transitive property of equality,

a + 7x = 2x + a + a and

a + 7x = 2x + 2a and

5x = a. Now that we know that a = 5x, we go back to our triangle and fill in 5x as a:

5x + 5x + 2x = 180 (the Triangle Angle-sum Theorem again) and

12x = 180 so

x = 15. If x = 15, then

a = 5(15) = 75,

b = 7(15) = 105, and

c = 2(15) = 30
