You would use syntheitc division to find this out. If, after we do the division, we have a remainder of 0, then the binomial is a factor. If there is a remainder that is a real number (any number that's not a 0), then the binomial is not a factor. It's that simple. We will start at the top. Our first binomial is x - 7 = 0. That means that x = 7. We will put 7 outside the "box" and the coefficients of the terms inside the box, like this: 7 (1 19 84). Bring down the 1. Multiply that 1 by the 7 to get 7. Put that 7 up under the 19 and add to get 26. Multiply that 26 by the 7 to get 182. Put that 182 up under the 84 and add to get 266. Definitely NOT a 0, so x - is not a factor. Let's move to the next one. x + 84 = 0, so x = -84. Put -84 outside the box and the coefficients of the terms inside like this: -84 (1 19 84). Bring down the 1 and multiply it by -84 to get -84. Put that -84 up under the 19 and add to get -65. Multiply that -65 by the -84 to get 5460. Again, not a 0. Moving on...x + 7 = 0 so x = -7. Set up the same way. Bring down the 1 and multiply by the -7 to get -7. Put that -7 up under the 19 and add to get 12. Multiply 12 by the -7 to get -84. Put the -84 up under the 84 and add to get 0. That means that x + 7 is a factor of the polynomial. Just so you know, one of the rules of synthetic division is that you are only allowed to use binomials as your possible roots. x^2+12 is itself a polynomial so we can't use sythetic division to do this. Also, because both the polynomials are second degree polynomials, they won't divide evenly anyway. So your only factor is x + 7. There you go!

Factored form:
(x+12)(x+7)
Proof:
12+7=19
12*7=84

Final answer: C

Use the quadratic formula to solve. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.<br> 2x^2 -3x -7 = 0
abruzzese [7]

The quadratic formula is:

\frac{-b + \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a} and  \frac{-b - \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

In this case, a = 2, b = -3, and c = -7

So, we can plug in the numbers to get:

  \frac{-(-3) + \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4(2)(-7)} }{2(2)} and    \frac{-(-3) - \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4(2)(-7)} }{2(2)}

Simplifying, we get:

    \frac{3 + \sqrt{65} }{4} and   \frac{3 - \sqrt{65} }{4}

You need to use a calculator to find what these would be in decimal form. The answer, rounded to the nearest tenth, is: x = 2.8, x = -1.3

Sinxcosxtanx=1-cos^2x
ycow [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

sin  x \: cos  x \: tanx = 1 -  {cos}^{2} x \\ LHS \\= sin  x \: cos  x \: tanx \\  =sin  x \: cos  x \: \times  \frac{sin  x}{cos  x}  \\  = sin  x \: \times  \frac{sin  x}{1} \\  ={sin}^{2}  x \\  = 1 -  {cos}^{2} x \\  = RHS \\  \therefore \: sin  x \: cos  x \: tanx = 1 -  {cos}^{2} x \\ Hence \: Proved.

What is the square root 6n carried to the power of 2/3 in radical form
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: \sqrt[3]{6n}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following expression:

(\sqrt{6n})^{\frac{2}{3}}

Which can be written as follows:

((6n)^{\frac{1}{2}})^{\frac{2}{3}}

Multiplying the exponents:

(6n)^{\frac{1}{3}}

Writing in radical form we finally have the result:

\sqrt[3]{6n}

Please help me solve this equation and show the work show me how you got the answer
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: k=3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for k, you want to isolate k.

\frac{2}{5} (5k+35)-8=12            [add both sides by 8]

\frac{2}{5} (5k+35)=20                  [multiply both sides by 5/2]

5k+35=50                       [subtract both sides by 35]

5k=15                               [divide both sides by 5]

k=3

Now, we know that k=3.

What is the standard form of the equation of a circle whose diameter is 20 units and whose center is (−1,7)?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

(x + 1)^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 100

Step-by-sep explanation:

Given:

Diameter of circle = 20 units

Center of circle = (-1, 7)

Standard form of the equation of a circle is expressed in the center-radius form as:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2,

Where,

h = -1

k = 7

r = ½ of diameter = ½(20) = 10 units

Plug in the values into the equation

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

(x - (-1))^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 10^2

(x + 1)^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 100
