Write an equation that expresses each relationship. Then solve the equation for \(y .\) \(x\) varies jointly as \(y\) and \(z\) and inversely as the square root of \(w\).
Write a polynomial inequality whose solution set is \([-3,5]\).
Determine whether cach statement is true or false If bhe statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. The graph of a rational function can have three vertical asymptotes.
In this exercise, we lead you through the steps involved in the proof of the Rational Zero Theorem. Consider the polynomial equation $$a_{n} x^{n}+a_{n-1} x^{n-1}+a_{n-2} x^{n-2}+\cdots+a_{1} x+a_{0}=0$$ and let \(\frac{P}{q}\) be a rational root reduced to lowest terms. a. Substitute \(\frac{p}{q}\) for \(x\) in the equation and show that the equation can be written as $$a_{n} p^{n}+a_{n-1} p^{n-1} q+a_{n-2} p^{n-2} q^{2}+\cdots+a_{1} p q^{n-1}=-a_{0} q^{n}$$ b. Why is \(p\) a factor of the left side of the equation? c. Because \(p\) divides the left side, it must also divide the right side. However, because \(\frac{P}{q}\) is reduced to lowest terms, \(p\) and \(q\) have no common factors other than \(-1\) and 1 Because \(p\) does divide the right side and has no factors in common with \(q^{n},\) what can you conclude? d. Rewrite the equation from part (a) with all terms containing \(q\) on the left and the term that does not have a factor of \(q\) on the right. Use an argument that parallels parts (b) and (c) to conclude that \(q\) is a factor of \(a_{n}\).
Write an equation that expresses each relationship. Then solve the equation for \(y .\) \(x\) varies directly as \(z\) and inversely as the sum of \(y\) and \(w\).
