Find the value of c so that the polynomial p(x) is divisible by (x-3). p(x) =-x^3+cx^2-4x+3. c=?

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$\boxed{\textsf {The value of c is $\sf \dfrac{-14}{3}$. }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is given to us . We need to find the value of c so that it is divisible by (x-3 ) .The given polynomial to us is ,

$\sf \implies p(x)=- x^3+cx^2-4x+3$

And the factor is ,

$\sf \implies g(x) = x + 3$

Now , according to factor theorem , p(x) will be divisible by g(x) if p(-3) = 0

$\sf \implies p(x)= - x^3+cx^2-4x+3 \\\\\implies\sf p(-3) = 0 \\\\\sf\implies -(-3)^3+c(-3)^2-4(-3)+3 = 0 \\\\\sf\implies 27 + 9c +12+3=0 \\\\\sf\implies 9c +42=0 \\\\\sf\implies 9c = (-42) \\\\\sf\implies c = \dfrac{-42}{9}\\\\\sf\implies \boxed{\pink{\sf c = \dfrac{-14}{3}}}$

<h3>Hence the value of c is (-14)/3 .</h3>

Calculate the arithmetic sequence in which a9=17 and the common difference is d=-2.1

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

$S_{31}=71.3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by the formula,

$U_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

We were given that the 9th term is $17$ .

$\Rightarrow 17=a_1+(9-1)(-2.1)$

$\Rightarrow 17=a_1+(8)\times(-2.1)$

$\Rightarrow 17=a_1-\frac{84}{5}$

$\Rightarrow 17+\frac{84}{5}=a_1$

$\Rightarrow a_1=\frac{169}{5}$

The sum of the first n-terms is given by the formula,

$S_n=\frac{n}{2}(2a_1+(n-1)d)$

To find $S_{31}$ , we substitute $n=31$ , $a_1=\frac{169}{5}$ and $d=-2.1$ .

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(2(\frac{169}{5}+(31-1)(-2.1))$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(2(\frac{169}{5}+(30)(-2.1))$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(\frac{23}{5})$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{713}{10}$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=71.3$

The correct answer is D

Measurements of regular hexagon

TEA [102]

The regular hexagon has both reflection symmetry and rotation symmetry.

Reflection symmetry is present when a figure has one or more lines of symmetry. A regular hexagon has 6 lines of symmetry. It has a 6-fold rotation axis.

Rotation symmetry is present when a figure can be rotated (less than 360°) and still look the same as before it was rotated. The center of rotation is a point a figure is rotated around such that the rotation symmetry holds. A regular hexagon can be rotated 6 times at an angle of 60°

What is the scientfic notation of 0.05

vredina [299]

Answer:

5×10⁻²

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the decimal so there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point.
The number of decimal places you move will be the exponent on the 10. a. If the decimal is being moved to the right, the exponent will be negative.

b. If the decimal is being moved to the left, the exponent will be positive.

Therefore. The answer is 5×10⁻²
