Answer:

(x - 3) is a factor of P(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

if (x - 3) is a factor of P(x) then P(3) = 0

P(3) = 2(3)³ + 5(3)² - 28(3) - 15

= 2(27) + 5(9) - 84 - 15

= 54 + 45 - 99

= 99 - 99

= 0

since P(3) = 0 then (x - 3) is a factor of P(x)

Answer:

angle 5 is 61°

angle 7 is 61°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. angle 7 + angle 8 = 90° Because they are complementary angles

2. Because of point 1 above, angle 5 + angle 6 = 90°

3. since given angle 6 = 29°

so, angle 5 = 90° - 29° = 61°

4. since given angle 5 = angle 8

so, angle 8 = 61°

5. from point 1 above,

angle 7 + 61° = 90°

so angle 7 = 29°

Suppose you invest 1,600 at an annual interest rate of 7.9% compounded continuously. How much will you have in the account after

Elina [12.6K]

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Continuously Compounding Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=Pe^{rt}\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$1600\\ r=rate\to 7.9\%\to \frac{7.9}{100}\to &0.079\\ t=years\to &10 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=1600e^{0.079\cdot 10}\implies A=1600e^{0.79}\implies A\approx 3525.434$

(5/6)^4x=(36/25)^9-x, please help solve for x, and the 9-x is all superscript

stiks02 [169]

$\frac{36}{25}=\frac{6^2}{5^2}=\left(\frac{6}{5}\right)^2=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\\\\therefore:\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left[\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\right]^{9-x}\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2(9-x)}\iff4x=-2(9-x)\\\\4x=-2\cdot9-2\cdot(-x)\\\\4x=-18+2x\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 2x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\2x=-18\ \ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\\boxed{x=-9}$

$Use:\\a^{-n}=\left(\frac{1}{a}\right)^n\\\\\left(a^n\right)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\\left(\frac{a}{b} \right)^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}$

Answer:

First answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called the Arc length, here is the formula:

Arc length = (angle/360)*(2Pi*radius)

So,

(45/360)*(2*3.14*4)

= 3.14

SO Pi !!!!!
