Answer:

  x+3 is not a factor

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator shows the expression has a zero at x=3 and no other real zeros. If x+3 were a factor, there would be a zero at x = -3.

  x+3 is not a factor of the expression.

_____

You can check to see if x+3 is a factor by evaluating the expression for x=-3. If (x+3) is a factor, x=-3 will make the function be zero.

  3(-x³ +2x² +2x +3) = 3(((-x +2)x +2)x +3) = 3(((-(-3)+2)(-3) +2)(-3) +3)

  = 3((-15+2)(-3) +3) = 3(39 +3) = 126 ≠ 0

The expression evaluates to 126 at x=-3, so x+3 is NOT a factor.

Cranberry juice costs $6.30 per quart and apple juice costs $3.60 per quart. Terrence wants to know how many quarts q of cranber
Korvikt [17]

We know that:

Cost (Cranberry Juice): 6.3 per quart

Cost (Apple Juice): 3.6 per quart

Quantity (Apple Juice): 4 quarts

Quantity (Cranberry Juice): q quarts

Further we know that Terrence wants the cost of the juice to be 4.5 per quart

Hence Total Cost = Cost per quart × Total Number of quarts = (Cost per quart for Apple Juice × Total Number of Apple Juice Quarts) + (Cost per quart for Cranberry Juice × Total Number of Cranberry Juice Quarts)

⇒ Total Cost = 4.5 × (q+4) = 6.3 × q + 3.6 × 4

⇒ 4.5(q+4) = 6.3q + 14.4, which matches with option D

Hence, the correct option is D

Which equation would you use to find how high the bird is flying
lisov135 [29]
Hi there! The fourth answer is correct.

In the picture we have to deal with facts:
1. The angle of 45°
2. The length of the opposite side
3. The length of the adjacent side.

Since we have to use the opposite and the adjacent side, we have to use the tangent of the angle. In a formula:
\tan( \alpha ) = \frac{opposite}{adjecent}

Filling in this formula, brings us to the following answer.
\tan(45) = \frac{x}{1100}

If sin θ = 3/5 find the value of 4 tanθ + 3 sinθ – 6 cosθ
zepelin [54]

Step-by-step explanation:

If sine theta is 3/5, taking the sine inverse will give you 36.87°.

4tan theta is 4 × tan36.87 = 3

3sin theta = 3 × sin36.87 = 1.8

6cos theta is 6× cos36.87 = 4.8

Therefore, it becomes 3 + 1.8 - 4.8 = 4.8 - 4.8

The answer is 0
