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

Mathematics

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.

docker41 [41]

Answer:

m = -1/2 and b = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the original line segment, we have to do the change in y/the change in x:

(4-8)/(-5--3) = -4/-2 = 2

2 is the slope of the original line segment, but since this is the perpendicular bisector, we have to take the negative reciprocal of 2 so m = -1/2

To find b we substitute the values of x, y, and m into the equation. Let's use the x value of -3 and the y value of 8:

y = mx + b

8 = -1/2(-3) + b

8 = 3/2 + b

6.5 = b
