Write the polynomial (a) as the product of factors that are irreducible over the rationals, (b) as the product of linear and quadratic factors that are irreducible over the reals, and (c) in completely factored form. $$f(x)=x^{4}+6 x^{2}-27$$
The maximum safe load uniformly distributed over a one-foot section of a two- inch-wide wooden beam can be approximated by the model $$\text { Load }=168.5 d^{2}-472.1$$ where \(d\) is the depth of the beam. (a) Evaluate the model for \(d=4, d=6, d=8, d=10\) and \(d=12 .\) Use the results to create a bar graph. (b) Determine the minimum depth of the beam that will safely support a load of 2000 pounds.
Write the polynomial (a) as the product of factors that are irreducible over the rationals, (b) as the product of linear and quadratic factors that are irreducible over the reals, and (c) in completely factored form. \(f(x)=x^{4}-4 x^{3}+5 x^{2}-2 x-6\) (Hint: One factor is \(\left.x^{2}-2 x-2 .\right)\)
Use the given zero to find all the zeros of the function. Function \(h(x)=3 x^{3}-4 x^{2}+8 x+8\) Zero \(1-\sqrt{3} i\)
Determine (if possible) the zeros of the function \(g\) when the function \(f\) has zeros at \(x=r_{1}, x=r_{2},\) and \(x=r_{3}\) $$g(x)=3 f(x)$$
