Powered by AITo expand a binomial expression like (2x + y + 3z)^2, apply the formula (a + b + c)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2ab + 2ac + 2bc. Thus, (2x + y + 3z)^2 expands to 4x^2 + y^2 + 9z^2 + 4xy + 12xz + 6yz .
To verify if a binomial is a factor of a polynomial, substitute the value that makes the binomial zero into the polynomial. If the result is zero, the binomial is a factor. For the polynomial x^3 + 6x^2 - 9x + 13 and the factor x + 1, substitute x = -1 into the polynomial: (-1)^3 + 6(-1)^2 - 9(-1) + 13 = -1 + 6 + 9 + 13 = 27, which is not zero, thus x + 1 is not a factor .
The coefficient of x^2 in a polynomial is the numerical factor of the x^2 term. In the polynomial 5x^3 - 6x^2 + 9x - 5, the term involving x^2 is -6x^2. Thus, the coefficient of x^2 is -6 .
To factorize a sum of cubes like 27x^3 + y^3 + z^3 - 9xyz, we recognize that it can be expressed in the form A^3 + B^3 + C^3 - 3ABC, which factors into (A + B + C)(A^2 + B^2 + C^2 - AB - BC - CA). Here, A = 3x, B = y, C = z. Therefore, it factors to (3x + y + z)(9x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 3xy - 3xz - yz).
If x+1 is a factor of the polynomial ax^3 + x^2 - 2x + 4a - 9, then substituting x = -1 into the polynomial should result in zero. Substituting x = -1 gives a(-1)^3 + (-1)^2 - 2(-1) + 4a - 9 = 0, simplifying to -a + 1 + 2 + 4a - 9 = 0, so 3a - 6 = 0, thereby a = 2 .
To evaluate (102)^3, recognize 102 as 100 + 2 and use the binomial expansion. So, (102)^3 = (100+2)^3 = 100^3 + 3(100^2)(2) + 3(100)(2^2) + 2^3, calculate each term to get 1000000 + 60000 + 1200 + 8 = 1061208 .
The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable x that appears in the polynomial with a non-zero coefficient. For example, in the polynomial 4x^4 + 5x + 7, the term with the highest power of x is 4x^4, thus the degree is 4 .
To calculate the value of a polynomial at a specific point, substitute the given value into the polynomial. For 5x - 4x^2 + 3 at x = -1, substitute to get 5(-1) - 4(-1)^2 + 3 = -5 - 4 + 3 = -6 .
To determine if a number is a zero of a polynomial, substitute it into the polynomial. If the resulting value is zero, the number is a zero of the polynomial. For p(x) = 2x + 5, set 2x + 5 = 0, solving gives x = -5/2. Thus, -5/2 is the zero of the polynomial .
Factorizing a polynomial such as 8x^3 + 643 can start by identifying it as a sum of cubes: (2x)^3 + 85^3. The sum of cubes a^3 + b^3 is factorized using (a + b)(a^2 - ab + b^2). Here, a = 2x and b = 85, so it becomes (2x + 85)((2x)^2 - (2x)(85) + 85^2), leading to (2x + 85)(4x^2 - 170x + 7225).
