Answer:
2. Eunju is right
3. 
is a factor of 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Polynomial Remainder Theorem</u>
The polynomial remainder theorem states that the remainder of the division of a polynomial f(x) by (x-a) is equal to f(a).
As a consequence, if a polynomial is divisible by x-a, f(a)=0.
Part 1:
Let's make:
To find out if x+b is a factor of f(x), we find f(-b):
Operating:
The value of f(-b) is not zero. This means Eunju is right, x+b is not a factor of f(x).
Part 2:
We must find out if is a factor of without using long division or synthetic division.
We can use the polynomial remainder theorem again, but since the factor is not in the form (x-a), we can factor it as follows:
Now we just apply the theorem twice. If both remainders are zero, then the assumption is true.
Let's make:
Find f(-2):
Find f(-3):
Since both f(-2) and f(-3) are zero, is a factor of .
Answer:
x = 10, y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 10 ---> x = 10 - y
3x + 2y = 30
3 (10 - y) + 2y = 30
30 - 3y + 2y = 30
y = 0
x + 0 = 10
x = 10
The formula for the general term of the sequence is Tn = 4n - 2
<h3>How to determine the formula?</h3>
The sequence is given as:
{2, 6, 10, 14, 18, . . . }
The above sequence is an arithmetic sequence with the following features:
- First term, a = 2
- Common difference, d = 4 i.e. 6 - 2
The formula for the general term is calculated using:
Tn = a + (n - 1) * d
This gives
Tn= 2 + (n - 1) * 4
Expand
Tn = 2 + 4n - 4
Evaluate the like terms
Tn = 4n - 2
Hence, the formula for the general term of the sequence is Tn = 4n - 2

Answer:
$40
Step-by-step explanation:
Trent contributes 5/(5+2) = 5/7 of the amount in his account. For an amount of $56, he must contribute ...
(5/7)×$56 = $40
Trent will have to put $40 into the account before he can buy a $56 skateboard.
We're going to be using combination since this question is asking how many different combinations of 10 people can be selected from a set of 23.
We would only use permutation if the order of the people in the committee mattered, which it seems it doesn't.
Formula for combination:
Where 
represents the number of objects/people in the set and 
represents the number of objects/people being chosen from the set
There are 23 people in the set and 10 people being chosen from the set
Usually I would prefer solving such fractions by hand instead of a calculator, but factorials can result in large numbers and there is too much multiplication. Using a calculator, we get
Thus, there are 1,144,066 different 10 person committees that can be selected from a pool of 23 people. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
