For the equation x-2sqrt.x=0 , perform the following:
a) Solve for all values of x that satisfies the equation.
Answer:
Show work in this space.
x-2sqrt(x)=0
sqrt(x){sqrt(x)-2}=0
sqrt(x)=0.....or....sqrt(x)=2
hence x=0 or .....x=4
b) Graph the functions y = x and x-2sqrt.x=0...I DONT THINK THIS IS CORRECT.IT IS PROBABLY Y-2SQRT(X)=0... on the same graph (by plotting points if necessary). Show the points of intersection of these two graphs.

simplify by combining like terms
sqrt 63 - 2 sqrt 28 + 5 sqrt 7=sqrt(9*7)-2sqrt(4*7)+5sqrt(7)
=sqrt(9)sqrt(7)-2sqrt(4)sqrt(7)+5sqrt(7)=3sqrt(7)-2*2sqrt(7)+5sqrt(7)

Find the odds against obtaining two (2) heads in a single toss of two coins.
Is it 1/2...NO...
THERE ARE 2 POSSIBILITIES IN EACH TOSS ...PROBABILITY OF HEAD IN ONE TOSS=1/2
SAME IS CASE IN SECOND TOSS =1/2
HENCE PROBABILITY OF GETTING 2 HEADS IN 2 TOSSES =(1/2)*(1/2)=1/4
PROBABILITY AGAINST 2 HEADS =1-1/4=3/4
ODDS AGAINST 2 HEADS ARE 3/4:1/4=3:1

tnx!.. pls answer as soon as possible!..
tnx!
let hcl used =x ml.
120 more =x+120 ml.
total mix =x+x+120=2x+120=210
2x=210-120=90
x=90/2=45 ml.
hcl= 45 ml
water = 45+120=165 ml.

A candy store sells malted milk balls for $2.50 per pound, and chocolate-covered
raisins for $3.75 per pound. How many pounds of each should be used to make a 10
pound mixture that sells for $3.00 per pound?
LET MILK BALLS USED BE M LB.
RAISINS USED =10-M LB.
COST OF MILK BALLS = M*2.5
COST OF RAISINS = (10-M)*3.75=37.5-3.75M
TOTAL COST =2.5M+37.5-3.75M=10*3=30
3.75M-2.5M=37.5-30=7.5
1.25M=7.5
M=7.5/1.25=6
MILK BALLS USED =6 LB.
RAISINS USED =10-6=4 LB.

THERE ARE 2 UNKNOWNS AND ONLY ONE EQN. BUT THERE IS A PHYSICL FACT THAT N,D,Q MUST BE POSITIVE INTEGERS..HENCE TRY IN EQN.III...D=1,2,3 ETC,TO GET INTEGRAL ANSWERS
D=1..1+6Q=89...........6Q=88...BUT THIS WILL MAKE Q FRACTION.HENCE NOT POSSIBLE
SIMILARLY.....D=2,3,4 ARE NOT POSSIBLE
D=5.....5+6Q=89....6Q=84....Q=84/6=14...SO D=5,Q=14 AND N=24-14-5=5
FURTHER TRIALS FOR D=11....WILL LEAD TO 11+6Q=89....6Q=78...Q=13...THEN N=24-13-11=0..BUT WE ARE GIVEN THAT THERE ARE SOME NICKELS..HENCE ONLY SOLUTION IS

REAL ROOTS ARE THOSE VALUES OF X AT WHICH P(X) BECOMES ZERO.
WE FIND THAT AT
X=0.....P(X)=-30..AND
AT X=1...P(X)=+22.....SO P(X) WOULD BE ZERO BETWEN X=0 AND X=1..THIS IS ONE REAL ROOT
SIMILARLY...AT
X=4.....P(X)=34
AT X=5....P(X)=-130.....SO P(X) WOULD BE ZERO BETWEEN X=4 AND X=5...THI9S IS ANOTHER REAL ROOT
SIMILARLY...AT X=5.....P(X)=-130
AT X=6............P(X)=222..HENCE P(X)WOULD BE ZERO BETWEEN X=5 AND X=6...THIS IS ANOTHER REAL ROOT.
HENCE THERE ARE 3 REAL ROOTS IN ALL

Please help! Find a 5th degree polynomial function with real, rational coefficients and zeros x=0, x=the square root of 3, and x=2-i.
MULTIPLY WITH ALL FACTORS OBTAINED FROM THE GIVEN ROOTS
X=0...X-0=X IS A FACTOR
X=SQRT(3)....X-SQRT(3) IS A FACTOR..NOW SINCE COEFFICIENTS ARE RATIONAL
X=-SQRT(3) SHOULD BE A ROOT....X+SQRT(3) IS A FACTOR
X=2-I........X-2+I IS A FACTOR...SINCE COEFFICIENTS ARE REAL
X=2+I SHOULD BE A ROOT ...X-2-I IS A FACTOR
SO MULTIPLYING F(X)=X{X-SQRT(3)}{X+SQRT(3)}{(X-2)+I}{(X-2)-I}=0
=X(X^2-3)({(X-2)^2-I^2}=0
X(X^2-3)(X^2-4X+5)=0...MULTIPLY TO GET THE ANSWER

Polynomials-and-rational-expressions/46265: Hello,
Can someone please help me with this?
The degree three polynomial f(x) with real coefficients and leading coefficient 1, has 4 and 3 + i among its roots. Express f(x) as a product of linear and quadratic polynomials with real coefficients.
I have come up with two different answers and I am really confused:
Is one of these answers correct?
f(x)=(x+4)(x^2+6x+10) or f(x) = (x-4)(x^2-6x+10)
Thank you
V/r
Doug

since coefficients are real if 3+i is root ,then its conjugate 3-i is also a root.hence
f(x)=k(x-4)(x-3-i)(x-3+i) =0
since coefficient of x^3 is 1,k=1
f(x)=(x-4){(x-3)^2-i^2}=(x-4)(x^2-6x+9+1)=0
=x^3-6x^2+10x-4x^2+24x-40=0
=x^3-10x^2+34x-40=0
I have come up with two different answers and I am really confused:
Is one of these answers correct?
f(x)=(x+4)(x^2+6x+10)...NO..4 IS ROOT MEANS X=4...OR...X-4=0
SIMILARLY.....3+I IS A ROOT MEANS X=3+I...OR...X-3-I=0
or f(x) = (x-4)(x^2-6x+10)..THIS IS CORRECT
Thank you

FOR THE SECOND PART YOU HAVE TO SEE WHICH LINE IS STEEPEST AND INCREASING.YOU CAN SEE THAT ALL DIVISIONS ARE FOR 1 YEAR.SO WHEREVER THERE IS MAXIMUM INCREASE THAT IS THE HIGHEST RAISE.
DURING 1990-91,91-2 AND 94-95 IT IS DECREASING..SO LEAVE THEM
92-93 IS STEEPER LINE THAN 93-94
SO 92-93 IS THE GREATEST INCREASE

W=3*H

USE LN(X*Y)=LN(X)+LN(Y)
LN(/Y)=LN(X)-LN(Y)
LN(X^P)=P*LN(X)
Express as a single natural log:
21nx - 51ny + 31nz
=LN(X^2)-LN(Y^5)+LN(Z^3)
=LN{(X^2)*(Z^3)/(Y^5)}
