explain how it to use linear factors to determine the equation of a polynomial function

Answers

Since linear factors can be written as (x-a)*(x-b) with a and b as the solutions, we can do it in two ways. First, we can use the quadratic equation. In an equation ax²+bx+c=0, the solutions are
[tex]x= \frac{-b+- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4*a*c} }{2*a} [/tex] with the +- meaning that you can have one solution (a) by adding and (b) by subtracting.

Next, in ax²+bx+c=0, we want to add b up to have dx+zx=bx as well as (d*z)=(c*a). For example, in 6x²+2x-4, we have 6*-4=-24. We have to find 2 numbers that add up to 2 but multiply to 24 - -4 and 6 work. Therefore, we have 6x²+6x-4x-4. Factoring it out, we have 6x(x+1)-4(x+1). Since x+1 is the same in both, we have the equation being (6x-4)(x+1) as the factorization

Hello!
So, your questions are basically having to do with rotations. This means to rotate certain points in a grid.
The following are formulas for solving rotations-
90 Degrees Clockwise About The Origin = (X,Y) -> (Y,-X)
180 Degrees About The Origin = (X,Y) -> (-X,-Y)
270 Degrees Clockwise About The Origin = (X,Y) -> (-Y,X)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
90 Degrees Counterclockwise = 270 Clockwise
270 Degrees Counterclockwise = 90 Clockwise
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Note, in the formulas, the negative sign only stands for the opposite. So if your original point is a negative, it will become positive,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now that we have our formulas, let's put them into affect with your points.

13)  90 Degrees CC = 270 Degrees Clockwise. Formula- (X,Y) -> (-Y,X)
A (2,-2) -> A' (2,2)
B (4,-1) -> B' (1,4)
C (4,-3) -> C' (3,4)
D (2,-4) -> D' (4,2)

*Note, the symbol _'_ Stands for prime. All this means, is the new point.

15) Now, I apologize, but I'm a bit confused on this one :( When it says about point L, I can't tell if it just wants that one point, or the whole figure translated. Again, I am so sorry :(

17) This one I do know. 270 degrees CC = 90 degrees Clockwise. Formula- (X,Y) = (Y,-X).
W (-6,-2) -> W' (-2,6)
X (-2,-2) -> X' (-2,2)
Y (-2,-6) -> Y' (-6,2)
Z (-5,-6) -> Z' (-6,5)

During the weekend at the movie palace theaters, 24,875 tickets were sold. Add the following to the number of tickets sold. 100 tickets _____ and 1,000 tickets ____

Answers

24,875 + 100 = 24,975 and 24,875 + 1,000 =25,875

Answer:   24,975 tickets and 25,875 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of tickets sold at the movie palace theaters during the weekend =  24,875

If we add the the number of tickets sold to 100 tickets, we get

[tex]24,875+100=24,975[/tex]

If we add the the number of tickets sold to 1000 tickets, we get

[tex]24,875+1000=25,875[/tex]

Hence, when we add 100 tickets and 1000 tickets to the number of tickets sold we get 24,975 tickets and 25,875 tickets

Please help me with this. What is the slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 5x-2y=11?

Answers

use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b to find the slope, m.

5x - 2y = 11  this equation is given in standard form 

-2y = 11 + 5x    add both sides by 5x and then divide all by -2

y = 5/2x - 11/2  

so the slope is 5/2.

hope this helped, God bless!
The slope of a line parallel to another line must have the same slope as the other line. So therefore, we just want to first find the slope of this line.

To do this, we can switch it to slope intercept form, which is y = mx + b.

-2y = -5x + 11

Notice that the y doesn't have a variable next to it in slope intercept form. This means you have to divide all the sides to -2 to cancel out that -2.

-2y = -5x + 11
/-2     /-2     /-2

y = 5/2x + 11/-2

Since in the equation, y = mx + b, the number in the position of m = the slope, we know that 5/2 is the slope.

So therefore, the slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 5x - 2y = 11 must be 5/2.

one maid can clean the house three times faster than another. Working together they can clean the entire house in 3 hours. How long would it take the faster maid cleaning alone?

Answers

Faster maid DATA:
time = x hr/job ; rate = 1/x job/jhr
Slower maid DATA:
time = 3x hr/job ; rate = 1/3x job/hr
Together DATA:
time = 3 hr/job ; rate = 1/3 job/hr
Equation:
rate + rate = together rate
1/x + 1/3x = 1/3
Multiply thru by 3x to get:
3 + 1 = x
x = 4 hrs (time for the faster maid to do the job)
Final answer:

By setting up and solving the equation based on the work rates of the maids, we find that the faster maid would need 4.5 hours to clean the complete house alone.

Explanation:

Let's denote the time it takes for the faster maid to clean the house alone as x hours and for the slower maid as 3x hours (since she is three times slower). When they clean the house together, their combined work rate is 1 house per 3 hours.

We can set up an equation based on the work done: The faster maid's work + the slower maid's work = the total work done. Here, the 'work' is a fraction of the house cleaned per hour, so the equation can be written as: 1/x + 1/(3x) = 1/3.

By solving this equation, we find that x = 4.5. Hence, the faster maid would need 4.5 hours to clean the house alone.

For what values of θ on the polar curve r=θ, with 0≤θ≤2π , are the tangent lines horizontal? Vertical?

Answers

Given that [tex]r=\theta[/tex], then [tex]r'=1[/tex]

The slope of a tangent line in the polar coordinate is given by:

[tex]m= \frac{r'\sin\theta+r\cos\theta}{r'\cos\theta-r\sin\theta} [/tex]

Thus, we have:

[tex]m= \frac{\sin\theta+\theta\cos\theta}{\cos\theta-\theta\sin\theta} [/tex]



Part A:

For horizontal tangent lines, m = 0.

Thus, we have:

[tex]\sin\theta+\theta\cos\theta=0 \\ \\ \theta\cos\theta=-\sin\theta \\ \\ \theta=- \frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta} =-\tan\theta[/tex]

Therefore, the values of θ on the polar curve r = θ, with 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π, such that the tangent lines are horizontal are:

θ = 0

θ = 2.02875783811043

θ = 4.91318043943488



Part B:

For vertical tangent lines, [tex] \frac{1}{m} =0[/tex]

Thus, we have:

[tex]\cos\theta-\theta\sin\theta=0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\theta\sin\theta=\cos\theta \\ \\ \Rightarrow\theta= \frac{\cos\theta}{\sin\theta} =\sec\theta[/tex]

Therefore, the values of θ on the polar curve r = θ, with 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π, such that the tangent lines are vertical are:

θ = 4.91718592528713
Final answer:

For the polar curve r = θ, the tangent lines are horizontal when θ = 0 and θ = π, and the tangent lines are vertical when θ = π/2 and θ = 3π/2.

Explanation:

The question is asking us to find the values of θ for which the tangent lines to the polar curve r = θ are horizontal and vertical. To do this, we need to first derive the slope of the tangent line in polar coordinates.

The derivative dr/dθ represents the slope of the radius with respect to θ, or in other words, the slope of the curve. When r = θ, the derivative dr/dθ = 1. This slope is equal to the tangent of the angle that the tangent line makes with the positive x-axis.

Therefore, for the tangent lines to be horizontal, the angle needs to be 0 or π rad (0 or 180 degrees). For the tangent lines to be vertical, the angle needs to be π/2 or 3π/2 rad (90 or 270 degrees). Using the equation r = θ in rad, we find the horizontal tangents are when θ = 0 and θ = π, while the vertical tangents are when θ = π/2 and θ = 3π/2.

A linear function F models a relationship in which the dependent variable decreases 6 units for every 3 units the independent variable decreases. The value of the function at 0 is 4. Graph the function. Identify the slope, y-intercept, and x-intercept of the graph.

Answers

A. Finding the slope

The slope of the function is simply the ratio of the value of the dependent variable over the independent variable, so in this case it is:

slope = 6/ 3 = 2

 

B. Finding the y – intercept

The y – intercept is simply the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is equal to zero, therefore:

y – intercept (b) = 4

 

C. Finding the function of the graph

The general equation of a line is given as:

y = m x + b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept therefore:

y = 2 x + 4

 

D. Finding the x – intercept

The x – intercept is simply the value of the independent variable (x) when the dependent variable (y) is equal to zero, therefore:

0 = 2 x + 4

x = - 2

 

E. Graph the function

Check out the image attached

Final answer:

The linear function described is y = -2x + 4, with a slope of -2 and a y-intercept at (0,4). The line for this function will pass through the points (0,4) and (2,0), the latter being the x-intercept.

Explanation:

The question asks to graph a linear function in which the dependent variable decreases 6 units for every 3 units the independent variable decreases, and the function's value at 0 is 4. The nature of this relationship implies that the slope of this function is -2 (calculated as -6 divided by 3). Therefore, the equation for this linear function, using the slope-intercept form y = mx + b, will be y = -2x + 4. In this equation, -2 is the slope (m) and 4 is the y-intercept (b, the function's value when x is 0).

To graph this function, you start by marking the point (0,4) on your graph. From this point, you then go down 2 units (as the slope is -2) and 1 unit to the right (as the decrease in y for a 1 unit increase in x). You will continue this pattern to graph the line. The x-intercept—the point at which the line crosses the x-axis (i.e., where y = 0)—occurs at x = 2, because plugging in 0 for y in the equation gives us -2x + 4 = 0, which simplifies to x = 2. So the final line should pass through the points (0,4) and (2,0).
