Answer:

B 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the divisor is in the form of <em>x - c</em>, use what is called Synthetic Division. Remember, in this formula, -c gives you the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so do not forget it. Anyway, here is how it is done:

2| -2 1 5 0 4 1

↓ -4 -6 -2 -4 0

_________________

-2 -3 -1 -2 0 1→ -2x⁴ - 3x³ - x² -2x + [x - 2]⁻¹

You start by placing the <em>c</em> in the top left corner, then list all the coefficients of your dividend [-2x⁵ + x⁴ + 5x³ + 4x + 1]. You bring down the original term closest to <em>c</em> then begin your multiplication. Now depending on what symbol your result is, tells you whether the next step is to <em>subtract</em> or <em>add</em>, then you continue this process starting with multiplication all the way up until you reach the end. Now, when the last term is 0, that means you have no remainder. Finally, your quotient is one degree less than your dividend, so that -2 in your quotient can be a -2x⁴, and the -3 [x³] follows right behind it, then 1 [-x²], -2[x], and finally, [1\x - 2] (remainder is 1, so set it over your denominator, which is the divisor), giving you the other factor of -2x⁴ - 3x³ - x² -2x + [x - 2]⁻¹.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

**(x - 2)^{-1} =  \frac{1}{x - 2}

The function h(x) is defined as shown.
pav-90 [236]
1. For x<3, h(x)=x+2

now x+2 is an increasing line (a practical way to check, h(1)=3, h(2)=4)

the largest value it takes is at 3, not inclusive, so h(3)=5 not inclusive.

Range_1= (-∞, 5)

2. for x> or equal to 3, h(x)=-x+8, which is a decreasing line (check h(4)=4, h(5)=3 )

so this line takes its maximal value at x=3, f(3)=5 and then takes any other value to -∞.

Range_2=(-∞,5]

3. Range(h)=Range1∪Range2=(-∞, 5)∪(-∞,5]=(-∞,5]      (B)

Someone help with this please!!!!
damaskus [11]

Answer:

10^{4} * 10^{3}=(10*10*10*10)(10*10*10) = 10^{7}\\\\10^{4}*10^{4}=(10*10*10*10)(10*10*10*10) = 10^8\\\\(10*10*10)(10*10*10*10*10)=10^3*10^5=10^8\\

10^{18}*10^{23}= (10 x 10 18 times)(10 x 10 23 times) =10^{41}

just as a note: when you multiply numbers with exponents and they both have the same base, all you have to do is add the exponents.

Ex: 10^{5}*10^{4}=10^{5+4}=10^{9}
