If x=-5 is a zero, then the first factor of the polynomial would be (x + 5 )

To find the other two factors we can divide the polynomial by the expression (x+5).

Using synthetic division, we have:

-5 I 4 15 -24 5 (Coefficients of the dividend)

I -20 25 -5 (Multiplying each coefficient by the results of the substraction and adding)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4 -5 1 0 (Coefficients of the quotient)

The result of the division is 4x^2 - 5x + 1. Factoring it, we have:

4x^2 - 4x -x + 1 (Separating -5x into -x and -4x)

4x (x - 1) - (x -1) (Factoring each pair of terms)

(x-1)(4x-1) (Factoring using the common factor)

So the answer would be:

(x + 5 )(x-1)(4x-1)

Is (3,10) a solution of the equation y=4x?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

(3, 10)

3 = x

10 = y

Substitute into equation

10 = 4(3)

10 = 12

No it isn't a solution as y doesn't = x

What is the range of the following function:<br> y = 2(5^x) - 1
Orlov [11]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The range of the function is:

Range: y>2

or

Range: (2,∞+)

<h2>Why?</h2>

To calculate the range of the following function (exponential function) we need to perform the following steps:

First: Find the value of "x"

So, finding "x" we have:

y=2(5^{x}-1)\\\frac{y}{2}=5^{x}-1\\\\\frac{y}{2}-1=5^{x}\\\\Log_{5}(\frac{y}{2}-1)=Log_5(5^{x})\\\\x=Log_{5}(\frac{y}{2}-1)

Second: Interpret the restriction of the function:

Since we are working with logarithms, we know that the only restriction that we found is that the logarithmic functions exist only from 0 to the possitive infinite without considering the number 1.

So, we can see that if the variable "x" is a real number, "y" must be greater than 2 because if it's equal to 2 the expression inside the logarithm will tend to 0, and since the logarithm of 0 does not exist in the real numbers, the variable "x" would not be equal to a real number.

Hence, the range of the function is:

Range: y>2

or

Range: (2,∞+)

Note: I have attached a picture (the graph of the function) for better understanding.

Have a nice day!

A company's year-end data shows the following amounts. Current assets $65,000 Current liabilities $25,000 Net income $7,500 Net
lozanna [386]

The company's current ratio is 2.6.

<h3>What is the current ratio?</h3>

Current ratio is an example of a liquidity ratio. Liquidity ratios are financial ratios measure a firm's ability to honour its short terms obligations.

Current ratio = current asset /current liability

$65,000 / 25,000 = 2.6
