Conjugate Root Theorem (roots)

Let f(x) be a polynomial in which all coefficients are rational. Suppose that a + b√c is a root of the equation f(x) = 0 where a, b, and c are rational and √c is irrational. Then a - b√c is also a root of the equation.

Let f(x) be a polynomial, all of whose coefficients are real numbers, and consider the equation f(x) = 0. a) The number of positive roots either is equal to the number of variations in sign of f(x) or is less than that of an even integer (you can find the number of positive roots by how many sign changes there are or with a difference of 2 from the original degree until 0; ex. 4, 2, 0)

Descartes's Rule of Signs (negative)

Let f(x) be a polynomial, all of whose coefficients are real numbers, and consider the equation f(x) = 0. b) The number of negative roots is either equal to the number of variations in sign of f(-x), or is less than that by an even integer.

The Location Theorem

What is e?

an irrational unit which is approximately 2.7182818284

nominal rate

annual rate the given rate of 10% per annum compounded once a year

effective rate

annual yield (interest earned/original amount)*100

What should you remember regarding the y-intercepts?

any number to the zero power is 1

If b denotes an arbitrary positive real number, what can we do when x is irrational?

approximate bˣ as closely as we wish by evaluating bʳ, where r is a rational number sufficiently close to the number x

Describe the function f(x) = (1 + (1/x))ˣ in terms of the exponential function f(x) = eˣ

as x grows larger and larger the value of f(x) approaches the value of e

Solve the following: bˡᵒᵍᵇ⁽ᴾ⁾ = ?

bˡᵒᵍᵇ⁽ᴾ⁾ = P

What are other properties of exponents?

common factors over equal intervals

What is the compound interest formula?

compounded continuously

What are irrational roots in?

conjugate pairs: there are always 2

Find the domain of the function f(x) = log₂(12 - 4x)

domain can be defined by an asymptote; change to exponential to easily see it 2ʸ = 12 - 4x 2ʸ - 12 = -4x divide by -4 to find x -1/4 * 2ʸ + 3 = x D: (-∞,3); reflection so decreasing

Describe the domain and range for exponential graphs

domain: all real numbers range: related to asymptotes, either all positives or all negatives before the asymptote

How many roots does every polynomial equation of the degree n ≥ 1 have where a root of multiplicity k is counted k times?

exactly n roots

What types of equations does the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra not apply to?

exponential equations where the variable is the exponent and inverse functions (no negative exponents allowed)

Describe the rate of change for exponential graphs

exponential graphs do not have constant rates of change, but they do have constant ratios

What is the instantaneous rate of change of the function f(x) = eˣ at x = a when a and b are real numbers?

eᵃ

Find the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) = eˣ at x = 1

f(1) = e¹ = e (at x = 2 the rate of change is e²)
