Answer:
c) -x^3 + x^2 - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: u (x) = x^5 - x^4 +x^2 and v(x) = -x^2
(u/v)(x) = u(x)/v(x)
Now plug in the given functions in the above formula, we get
= (x^5 - x^4 + x^2) / -x^2
We can factorize the numerator.
In x^5 - x^4 + x^2. the common factor is x^2, so we can take it out and write the remaining terms in the parenthesis.
= x^2 (x^3 - x^2 + 1) / - x^2
Now we gave x^2 both in the numerator and in the denominator, we can cancel it out.
(u/v)(x) = (x^3 - x^2 + 1) / -1
When we dividing the numerator by -1, we get
(u/v)(x) = -x^3 + x^2 - 1
Answer: c) -x^3 + x^2 - 1
Hope you will understand the concept.
Thank you.
Suppose x-6 is listed as a possible answer. That is zero if x = 6. So put x=6 into the original x^2 + 4x - 60 to get 6^2 + 4*6 - 60 = 36 + 24 -60 = 0. hence x-6 is a factor.
Answer (x-6)
on this hand :x-5 is not a factor, because plugging x=5 into does not work.
15*15=225. There's only one square root of 225... there's only one square root of any number ...
X is less than -2, so -2 is our largest value of the interval, so it goes on the right. Since there is no lower endpoint (it is ALL values less than -2), we put the negative infinity symbol on the left side. The curved end on -2 indicates an open interval
