Is one of the threes positive?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
would the answer be g(x) x^4-3x^3-7x^2+15x+18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok, work backwards then. To get those answers the polynomial factored would be (x-1)(x-2)(x-3)(x+3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so then Im right or not

Almost, the 15x and +18 isnt right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
should it have been -15x+18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x^4-3x^3-7x^2+27x-18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that one is not an option
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ill check again

ok have options
x^4+3x^3-7x^2-15x+18
x^4+3x^3-7x^2+2x+18
x^4-3x^3+7x^2+15x+18
x^4-3x^3-7x^2+15x+18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Im still getting x^4-3x^3-7x^2+27x-18
The problem was find the polynomial with zeroes 1,2,3,-3?

what is a polynomial function in standard form with zeroes 1,2,-3, and -3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hey its x^4+3x^3-7x^2-15x+18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Looks like option 1!

how did you get that if you dont mind me asking
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i had option 4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
see the zeroes mean those values will make the eqn=0
Thus, the equation is (x-1)*(x-2)*(x+3)*(x+3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh ok that where i messed up I had -3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
have another question if you have time

sure fire :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
find all the zeroes of the equation
x^3+x^2=-3x-3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait....on it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x^2[x+1]=-3[x+1]
=> [x+1][x^2+3]
=> x=-1 the other 2 roots are complex :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
my choices are
i sgrt 3, -i sgrt 3, -1
i sgrt 3, -i sgrt 3, 1
sgrt 3, - sgrt3, -1
i sgrt 3, 1

option 1 is right!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok thanks do you have time for one more problem
OpenStudy (anonymous):
:)
