question:Suppose p(x) is a monic cubic polynomial with real coefficients such that p(3-2i)=0 and p(0)=-52. Determine p(x) (in expanded form).

answer:Since p(x) is a monic cubic polynomial, we can write it in the form p(x) = (x-r_1)(x-r_2)(x-r_3), where r_1, r_2, and r_3 are the roots of the polynomial. We know that p(3-2i) = 0, so one of the roots must be 3-2i. Since the coefficients of p(x) are real, the complex conjugate 3+2i must also be a root. We also know that p(0) = -52. Plugging in x=0 into our polynomial, we get p(0) = (0-r_1)(0-r_2)(0-r_3) = -52. Since we already have two of the roots, we can write this as (0-(3-2i))(0-(3+2i))(0-r_3) = -52. Expanding this equation, we get (3-2i)(3+2i)(0-r_3) = -52. Simplifying, we get 13(0-r_3) = -52, or r_3 = 4. Therefore, the polynomial p(x) is (x-(3-2i))(x-(3+2i))(x-4). Expanding this, we get p(x) = (x^2-6x+13)(x-4). Thus, p(x) in expanded form is boxed{x^3 - 10x^2 + 37x - 52}.The answer is: x^3-10x^2+37x-52

question:f x = 2 and y = 1, what is the value of 2times x - 3 times y?

answer:We substitute the given values of x and y into the expression 2times x - 3 times y. We get 2times 2 - 3 times 1 = 4 - 3 = boxed{1}. The answer is: 1

question:After making three batches of baguettes, with each batch containing 48 baguettes, the bakery sold 37 from the first batch, 52 from the second batch, and 49 from the third batch. How many baguettes are remaining?

answer:Each batch contains 48 baguettes, so three batches contain a total of 48 x 3 = 144 baguettes. From the first batch, 37 baguettes were sold, so there are 144 - 37 = 107 baguettes remaining. From the second batch, 52 baguettes were sold, so there are 107 - 52 = 55 baguettes remaining. From the third batch, 49 baguettes were sold, so there are 55 - 49 = 6 baguettes remaining. Therefore, there are 6 baguettes remaining. 6 The answer is: 6

question:What common fraction is exactly half-way between frac{2}{3} and frac{4}{5}?

answer:To find the fraction that is halfway between frac{2}{3} and frac{4}{5}, we can take the average of the two fractions. The average is frac{frac{2}{3} + frac{4}{5}}{2} = frac{frac{10}{15} + frac{12}{15}}{2} = frac{frac{22}{15}}{2} = frac{22}{15} div 2 = frac{22}{15} cdot frac{1}{2} = boxed{frac{11}{15}}. The answer is: frac{11}{15}
