Answer:
B, E
Step-by-step explanation:
It can be helpful to factor the first two terms:
f(x) = x^2(x -7) +36
This can make it easier to evaluate the function for different values of x.
The answer choices suggest you need to know whether f(5) and f(-14) match the values given here.
f(5) = 5^2(5 -7) +36 = -50 +36 = -14 . . . . matches choice B (and E)
f(-14) = (-14)^2(-14-7) +36 = -21(196) +36 . . . . <em>does not match</em> choice A (or D)
__
The one remaining answer choice we need to consider is C. If we look at f(0) for this equation, we find it is (-5)(-10) +14 = 64, which <em>does not match</em> f(0) = 36 for the function given in the problem statement.
The only true answer choices are B and E.
_____
The remainder theorem tells you that f(a) = the remainder from f(x)/(x -a).
X=4
The only way you can go about doing this is by finding the factors of 36 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36) and then seeing which pair make sense.
In this case, 9 and 4.
So, plug in the numbers so it makes sense.
(5+4)4=36
5+4=9
9*4=36
Kortez is 11.
3 less than 11 is 8
5 times 8 is 40
Answer:
lemonade = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
let p = pink lemonade
let t = sweet tea
create a system of equations -- one with quantity, one with associate costs
p + t = 21
2.5p + 4t = 67.5
substitution method: let t = 21 - p
2.5p + 4(21 - p) = 67.5
2.5p + 84 - 4p = 67.5
-1.5 p = -16.5
p = 11
t = 21 - 11
t = 10
