Answer:
k = -18
Step-by-step explanation:
If x-3 is a factor, what this means is that if we substitute;
x = 3 into the equation, we should get 0
This is from the factor theorem
Thus ;
P(3) = 0 = 2(3)^3 -5(3)^2 + 3(3) + k
0 = 54 - 45 + 9 + k
k + 18 = 0
k = -18
If i understand the question correctly then the answer you are looking for is 9
Answer:
8 lbs 5 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
When you add 3 lbs, 2 lbs, and 2 lbs you get 7 lbs.
There are 16 oz in a lb. When you add the number of oz you get 21 oz which is the same as 1 lb and 5 oz.
you then add 7 lbs to 1 lb and 5 oz and get 8 lbs and 5 oz.

y = slope (x) + y - intercept
To find the slope we need to find out how much the x's and y's increase or decrease...
To find the y - intercept if any, simply look for coordinates ( 0 , y ) or 0 and a #.
~~
In this case, as time passes, the water level decreases therefore we have a negative slope.
Time is our x and amount (ft) is our y.
On the x side it increases by 2
On the y side it decreases by 10
Now do y over x ==> 10 over 2 and get 5 ==> m
-5 is our slope and 50 is our y - intercept
~~
The "rate of change" is another word for slope.
Well, slope is - 5ft is our slope.
