The solution of the given equation exists zero as x − 5 is the factor of x³ − 4x² − 9x + 20.

<h3>What is meant by the factor of a equation?</h3>

The multiplied numbers that make up a specific number are said to be that number's factors. A factor, also referred to as a divisor, is a whole number that can be multiplied by another whole number to get another whole number.

A number that divides another number by itself with no residual is known as a factor. In other words, if multiplying two whole numbers results in the creation of a product, the numbers we are multiplying are factors of the product because the product is divisible by them.

Let the equation be x³ − 4x² − 9x + 20.

The prime factors of an algebraic expression or number are those that are x³ − 4x² − 9x + 20.

Putting the value of x in the equation

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

putting the value of x in the equation, we get

⇒ 5³ − 4 × 5² − 9 × 5 + 20.

simplifying the above equation, we get

⇒ 125 - 4 × 25 - 45 + 20

⇒ 125 - 100 - 45 + 20

⇒ 125 - 145 + 20

⇒ 145 - 145 = 0

Therefore, the solution of the given equation exists zero as x − 5 is the factor of x³ − 4x² − 9x + 20.

A motorist left town X at 08 00 for town Y situated 120km away, travelling at a constant speed of v km/hr, so as to arrive at Y
mote1985 [20]
<span>v = 45 km/hr u = 72 km/hr Can't sketch the graph, but can describe it. The Y-axis will be the distance. At the origin it will be 0, and at the highest point it will have the value of 120. The X-axis will be time in minutes. At the origin it will be 0 and at the rightmost point, it will be 160. The graph will consist of 3 line segments. They are 1. A segment from (0,0) to (80,60) 2. A segment from (80,60) to (110,60) 3. A segment from (110,60) to (160,120) The motorist originally intended on driving for 2 2/3 hours to travel 120 km. So divide the distance by the time to get the original intended speed. 120 km / 8/3 = 120 km * 3/8 = 360/8 = 45 km/hr After traveling for 80 minutes (half of the original time allowed), the motorist should be half of the way to the destination, or 120/2 = 60km. Let's verify that. 45 * 4/3 = 180/3 = 60 km. So we have a good cross check that our initial speed was correct. v = 45 km/hr Now having spent 30 minutes fixing the problem, out motorist now has 160-80-30 = 50 minutes available to travel 60 km. So let's divide the distance by time: 60 / 5/6 = 60 * 6/5 = 360/5 = 72 km/hr So the 2nd leg of the trip was at a speed of 72 km/hr</span>

The length of a rectangle is 5 cm less than 3 times its width. If the perimeter is 70 cm, find the dimensions.
zvonat [6]

Answer:

l = 25

w = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

w = width

3w-5 = length

w+w+3w-5+3w-5 = 70

8w - 10 = 70

8w = 80

w = 10

l = 3(10)-5, or 25
