Is X-1 a factor of x^5-1?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Musya8 [376]2 years ago
4 0

Answer: No

Explanation:

According to factor theorem, if f(x)=0 then x is a factor of the given function or equation.

As x-1 is a factor

We equate x-1=0

x=1

Substituting in x^5-1, we have 1^5-1 =1-1=0.

Hence, it's a factor.

When coming to x^5+1, it would become 1^5+1=1+1=2

So x-1 isn't a factor of x^5+1.

290 is 10 times as much as?
katrin2010 [14]
I'm pretty sure it's 29 . . . A way to remember is that when you multiply a number by ten, add a zero. For example, 34 x 10 is 340. Just add the zero!

Sophie and Simon are peeling a pile of potatoes for lunch in the cafeteria. Sophie can peel all the potatoes by herself in 45 mi
natima [27]

Answer:

18 Minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Simon and sophie each do a fraction of the job per minute like this:

-Simon does \frac{1}{30} per minute (if we multiply this by 30 we have the completed job)

-Sophie does \frac{1}{45} of the job per minute (again if we multiply this by 45 we have the completed job)

We will add this two to know how much of the job they do together in a minute:

\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{45}=\frac{1}{18}

They will do \frac{1}{18} of the job per minute.

So the total time will be when they do \frac{18}{18}=1, we can put this in one equation like this:

\frac{1}{18}x=1

where x is the total times we need to do\frac{1}{18} of the job to complete it. We solve for x:

x=18minutes

What is the exact volume of the composite solid below? Do NOT round at any point!
Taya2010 [7]
So, let's take a look! When doing volume, we always do (addition) and nothing else. The only time that we would have to multiply is if we would have to find the area, but in this case, we are (going to figure) out what would be the volume. 

We would sum up the following:

\boxed{6+6+12+8*2}. 

I believe that we would multiply this by (2) because we would have to find the other side as well.

And this would give us . . .  64 as it's volume.

V= (64)
