For what values of a and b are x+1 and x+2 factors of x3 – ax2 – bx –8? Write down the other factor.
emmainna [20.7K]
<h2>For a = 1 and b = 10 x+1 and x+2 factors of  x³-ax²-bx-8 = 0</h2><h2>Other factor is (x-4)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

                 x³-ax²-bx-8 = 0

Its factors are x+1 and x+2

That is x = -1 and x = -2 are its roots

Substituting x = -1

               (-1)³-a(-1)²-b(-1)-8 = 0

                -1 - a + b - 8 = 0

                      b - a = 9 ---------------------eqn 1

Substituting x = -2

               (-2)³-a(-2)²-b(-2)-8 = 0

                -8 - 4a + 2b - 8 = 0

                      2b - 4a = 16 ---------------------eqn 2

eqn 1 x -2

                      -2b + 2a = -18 ---------------------eqn 3

eqn 2 + eqn 3

                      -2a = -2

                          a = 1

Substituting in eqn 1

                        b - 1 = 9

                         b = 10

For a = 1 and b = 10,  x+1 and x+2 factors of  x³-ax²-bx-8 = 0

The equation is  x³-x²-10x-8 = 0

Dividing with x + 1 we will get

                   x³-x²-10x-8 = (x+1)(x²-2x-8)

Dividing (x²-2x-8) with x + 2 we will get

                  x²-2x-8 = (x+2)(x-4)

So we have

               x³-x²-10x-8 = (x+1)(x+2)(x-4)

Other factor is (x-4)

ASAP! find the inverse of the function y=2x^2+2
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

\displaystyle y=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}x -1}

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the inverse of the function:

y=2x^2+2

To find the inverse of a function, we will flip the variables and solve for <em>y</em>. So:

x=2y^2+2

Solve for <em>y</em>. Subtract two from both sides:

x-2=2y^2

Divide both sides by two:

\displaystyle y^2=\frac{1}{2}x-1

And take the principal square root of both sides. Therefore:

\displaystyle y=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}x -1}

What’s the area of the figure below?
TEA [102]

Answer:

482.5 ft^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure can be regarded as a rectangle with a triangle cut out of one corner.

The base of the triangle = 25-20 = 5 in and the height = 20 - 13 = 7 in.

The required area = area of rectangle - area of triangle

= 25*20 - 1/2 * 5 * 7

= 500 - 17.5

= 482.5 ft^2
