Answer: 10 students have a cell phone and only 5 of them can use social media

Step-by-step explanation: We see there are 40 students in total and 1/4 OF the class have their own cell phone. The OF means multiplacation so we do 40 X 1/4 which is 10 students who have their cellphone. We then again see 1/2 OF the 10 students can use social media meaning we do 10 X 1/2 which is equal to 5 students out of the 10 can use social media.

Is the equation a proportuioanl relationship? x= 2y

prisoha [69]

A proportional change means that for every change in 1 value, it is accompanied by a change in another value that is the same every time. For example, with this, if x=1 then y=2*1=2. If we move x up 1 value to 2, y=2*2=4. Next, if we move x one more value up then 3*2=y=6. As you may notice, y adds up by 2 every time. In addition, you multiply the x value by the same number every time and only that number (no adding anything) and it is therefore a proportional equation

Find the value of c so that the polynomial p(x) is divisible by (x-3). p(x) =-x^3+cx^2-4x+3. c=?

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$\boxed{\textsf {The value of c is $\sf \dfrac{-14}{3}$. }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is given to us . We need to find the value of c so that it is divisible by (x-3 ) .The given polynomial to us is ,

$\sf \implies p(x)=- x^3+cx^2-4x+3$

And the factor is ,

$\sf \implies g(x) = x + 3$

Now , according to factor theorem , p(x) will be divisible by g(x) if p(-3) = 0

$\sf \implies p(x)= - x^3+cx^2-4x+3 \\\\\implies\sf p(-3) = 0 \\\\\sf\implies -(-3)^3+c(-3)^2-4(-3)+3 = 0 \\\\\sf\implies 27 + 9c +12+3=0 \\\\\sf\implies 9c +42=0 \\\\\sf\implies 9c = (-42) \\\\\sf\implies c = \dfrac{-42}{9}\\\\\sf\implies \boxed{\pink{\sf c = \dfrac{-14}{3}}}$
