If 1 and -1 are the zeroes of the polynomial p(x) = ax 3 + x 2 − 2x + b, find the values of a and b

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

             a = 2,    b = -1  

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = ax³ + x² - 2x + b

p(1) = a(1)³ + 1² - 2•1 + b = a + 1 - 2 + b = a + b - 1

a + b - 1 = 0  ⇒   b = 1 - a

p(-1) = a(-1)³ + (-1)² - 2(-1) + b = -a + 1 + 2 + b = - a + b + 3

- a + b + 3 = 0    ∧   b = 1 - a

- a + (1 - a) + 3 = 0

- a + 1 - a + 3 = 0

-2a + 4 = 0

-2a = -4

 a = 2

b = 1 - 2 = -1

The area of a rectangular ceiling tile is 756 square inches. The perimeter is 114 inches. What are the dimensions of the tile?

Answers

Here we need to use what we know about rectangles to make a system of equations.

By solving that system we found that the tile has a length of 36 inches and a width of 21 inches.

Remember that for a rectangle of length L and width W, the perimeter is:

P = 2*(L + W)

And the area is:

A = W*L

Here we know that the perimeter is 114 inches, then we can write:

114in = 2*(L + W)

We also know that the area is 756 in^2, then we can write:

756 in^2 = L*W

So we found two equations, which means that we have a system of two equations with two variables:

114in = 2*(L + W)

756 in^2 = L*W

To solve this, the first step is to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, we can isolate L in the first equation:

114in = 2*(L + W)

114in/2 = (L + W)

57in = L + W

57in - W = L

Now that we have an expression equivalent to L, we can replace it in the other equation to get:

756 in^2 = L*W

756 in^2 = (57in - W)*W

Now we can solve this for W.

756 in^2 = W*57in - W^2

W^2 - W*57in + 756 in^2 = 0

The solutions are given by the Bhaskara's formula:

[tex]W = \frac{57in \pm \sqrt{(-57in)^2 - 4*1*(756in^2)} }{2*1} = \frac{57in \pm 15in}{2}[/tex]

Then the two possible values of the width will be:

W = (57in + 15in)/2 =  36 in

W = (57in - 15in)/2 = 21 in

Suppose that we choose the second solution, W = 21in

Now using the equation 57in - W = L we can find the value of L

L = 57in - W = 57in - 21in = 36in

L = 36in

Then we found that the tile has a length of 36 inches and a width of 21 inches.

Which graph below has a midline of about -1, an amplitude of 2, and a period of 3pi

Answers

Answer:

the last one

Step-by-step explanation:

The two on the right bounce up and down around -1. Two up and two down from -1. But only the one on the bottom right takes 3 pi to come back to the same place it started.

Explanation:

[tex]\displaystyle y = 2cos\:(\frac{2}{3}x - \frac{\pi}{2}) - 1 \\ y = 2sin\:\frac{2}{3}x - 1 \\ \\ y = Acos(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow -1 \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \hookrightarrow \boxed{\frac{3}{4}\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{\frac{\pi}{2}}{\frac{2}{3}} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{3\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{\frac{2}{3}}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 2[/tex]

OR

[tex]\displaystyle y = Asin(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow -1 \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{3\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{\frac{2}{3}}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 2[/tex]

You will need the above information to help you interpret the graph. So, first off, you MUST figure the period out by using wavelengths. So, looking at where the graph hits [tex]\displaystyle [-4\frac{1}{2}\pi, -1],[/tex] from there to [tex]\displaystyle [-1\frac{1}{2}\pi, -1],[/tex] they are obviously [tex]\displaystyle 3\pi\:units[/tex] apart, telling you that the period of the graph is [tex]\displaystyle 3\pi.[/tex] Now, the amplitude is obvious to figure out because it is the A-term, but of cource, if you want to be certain it is the amplitude, look at the graph to see how low and high each crest extends beyond the midline. The midline is the centre of your graph, also known as the vertical shift, which in this case the centre is at [tex]\displaystyle y = -1,[/tex] in which each crest is extended two units beyond the midline, hence, your amplitude. So, no matter how far the graph shifts vertically, the midline will ALWAYS follow.

*If you wanted to know the equation(s) of the graph, look above. If you have any questions on how the equation(s) came about, do not hesitate to ask.

I am delighted to assist you at any time.

Answer:

E) 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Since b is 90 degrees, and lines CB and BA are equal (as seeen with the 2 lines across them) we can assume that this angle is 45 degrees, half or 90 degrees.

Angle C is also equal to angle A

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, we can write the following equation to solve for 3x:

3x + 3x + 90 = 180

3x + 3x = 90

2 * 3x = 90

Answers

Answer:

6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone = (1/3) πr²h

72π = (1/3) π r² 6

72 = (1/3) r² 6

Divide both sides by 6

12 = (1/3) r²

Multiply both sides by 3

36 = r²

In a chocolate chip cookie recipe flour,brown sugar, and chocolate chips are mixed in the ratio 5:3:4 if the total volume of the three ingredients is 720 ML how many mL of Chocolate chips are in the mix

Answers

Answer:

240 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Ratio of Flour = 5

Ratio of brown sugar = 3

Ratio of chocolate = 4

Total volume = 720 mL

Next, we shall determine the total ratio. This can be obtained as follow:

Total ratio = ratio of flour + ratio of brown sugar + ratio of chocolate

Total ratio = 5 + 3 + 4

Total ratio = 12

Finally, we shall determine the volume of the chocolate chips in the mixture as shown below:

Volume of chocolate chips = ratio of chocolate /total ratio x total volume

Ratio of chocolate = 4

Total ratio = 12

Total volume = 720 mL

Volume of chocolate chips =..?

Volume of chocolate chips = ratio of chocolate /total ratio x total volume

Volume of chocolate chip = 4/12 x 720

Volume of chocolate chip = 240 mL

Therefore, the volume of the chocolate chips in the mixture is 240 mL.

he Boston public school district has had difficulty maintaining on-time bus service for its students. Suppose the district develops a new bus schedule to help combat chronic lateness on a particularly woeful route. Historically, the bus service on the route has been, on average, 10 minutes late. After the schedule adjustment, the first 36 runs were an average of eight minutes late. As a result, the Boston public school district claimed that the schedule adjustment was an improvement using a two tailed test—students were not as late. Assume a population standard deviation for bus arrival time of 10 minutes. The test statistic is 1.20 based on this and an alpha of .05 which of the following statements is not correct?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We cannot reject the null hypothesis. The p-value is greater than alpha so there is no evidence to support the claim of Boston Public School.
