Answer to Problem 28WE

The real zero lie between P(2.4)=.696 and P(2.5)=0.125

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The polynomial is P(x)=x32x23 .

Calculation: to find the real zero, first find the polynomial function values,

    xP(x)
    03
    23
    36

From the above table it can be observed that the polynomial zero can be lie in between 23 , so now find the polynomial function values between 23 ,

    xP(x)
    2.31.413
    2.40.696
    2.50.125

Thus, the real zero of polynomial must be between in 2.42.5 .

b.

To determine

To find: the zero to the nearest hundredth using linear interpolation.

Answer to Problem 28WE

The real zero is r=2.48 .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The polynomial is P(x)=x32x23 .

Calculation: to find the real zero, first find the polynomial function values,

    xP(x)
    03
    23
    36

From the above table it can be observed that the polynomial zero can be lie in between 23 , so now find the polynomial function values between 23 ,

    xP(x)
    2.31.413
    2.40.696
    2.50.125

Thus, the real zero of polynomial must be between in 2.42.5 .

Let r is the real zero of polynomial,

    xP(x)
    2.40.696
    r0
    2.50.125

Now, to find the difference,

  c.1=.6960.821c.1=0.84       [divide]c=0.084       [multiply]

Thus, the real zero of polynomial is,

  r=2.4+cr=2.4+0.084   [substitute]r=2.48               [add]
