Polynomials: Girard's Relations

Easy

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Easy of Mathematics

A box manufacturer wants to create a new packaging for their products. The shape of the box is defined by a polynomial that represents the volume V(x) of the box as a function of the height x of the square base. The polynomial describing the volume of the box is given by V(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 9x. To optimize the use of material, the company wants to determine the height of the base that maximizes the volume of the box. Use Girard's relations to find the sum of the roots of the polynomial V(x). Then, determine the height x that maximizes the volume of the box. (Consider that the value of x is positive and that the unit of measure of the height is the same as the square base, so it does not interfere with the optimization analysis).

In a school, a survey was conducted on students who practiced sports. It was found that 60% of the students practiced soccer, 30% practiced volleyball, and 20% practiced both sports. If a student is randomly selected, what is the probability that he practices soccer, given that he practices volleyball?

In a science project, students need to measure different volumes of liquids for their experiments. The scale used to measure the volume of water can only measure in multiples of 100 milliliters. When measuring, the scale shows 450.725 grams of water. We know that the density of water is 1 g/ml. (1) Round the volume measured by the scale to the nearest milliliter. (2) Explain why the scale provided a number in grams instead of milliliters and how you used the density of water to convert the measurement back to volume in milliliters.

In a large engineering system, a building is being designed and energy efficiency is a major concern. To ensure the efficiency of heating and cooling, the air conditioning system must be sized according to the specific needs of the building. The engineer in charge of the project must solve a system of linear equations to determine the ideal operating temperatures. Let the following be the system of equations that models the thermal behavior of the building: 2x + y + 3z = 10, 4x - 6y + 8z = 5, 3x + 7y + 5z = 18. The engineer must rewrite this system of equations in the matrix form Ax = b, where A is the matrix of coefficients, x is the vector of unknowns, and b is the vector of constant terms.
