Fill in the blanks to complete the polynomial equation that shows the subtraction of the second expression from the first and the resulting difference.

1 answer

To solve the problem, we need to perform the subtraction of the second polynomial from the first polynomial. The polynomials you provided are:

  1. First polynomial: 9x2+bx+13
  2. Second polynomial: 2x2+12x+cx
  3. Resulting polynomial (after subtraction): dx2+5x+2

The subtraction equation we want to complete is: (9x2+bx+13)(2x2+12x+cx)=dx2+5x+2

Expanding the left side: 9x2+bx+13+2x212xcx=dx2+5x+2

Combining like terms: (9x2+2x2)+(bx12xcx)+13=dx2+5x+2 This simplifies to: 11x2+(b12c)x+13=dx2+5x+2

Now, we equate the coefficients from both sides:

  1. For x2: 11=d
  2. For x: b12c=5
  3. For the constant term: 13=2

The constant term doesn't hold true (13 is not equal to 2), so let's just isolate b and c for further calculations.

From 11=d, we find that d=11.

Now let's solve for b and c using: b12c=5bc=17(1)

We are missing a constraint for b and c to determine specific values. However, we can assume possible cases. Let's set one value and solve for the other to investigate values for c.

To satisfy: b=c+17(from,equation,1)

Therefore, we need to consider specific values to find integers satisfying this equation. We can assume linear values:

  1. If c=0, then b=17.
  2. If c=1, then b=18.
  3. If c=4, then b=21.

Since the explicit values depend on the assumed values, here’s one set of possible values almost defining the intentional gaps in b and c:

Set b=17 and c=0. The final polynomials filled would be:

  1. 9x2+17x+13
  2. 2x2+12x+0
  3. 11x2+5x+2

Thus the final filled blanks will yield: b=17,c=0,d=11.
