x^{3}+2x^{2} -5x-6

Horner:

2  1     2    -5   -6

   1     4     3     0

x^{3}+2x^{2} -5x-6=(x-2)(x^{2} +4x+3)

g(x)=x^{2} +4x+3

g(-1)=0

Horner

-1   1    4    3

    1    3     0

x^{2} +4x+3=(x+1)(x+3)

f(x)=x^{3}+2x^{2} -5x-6=(x-2)(x+1)(x+3)

Answer:

Since 2 or x-2= 0 is a zero of the function we divide it by the function to get the other factors

x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 ÷ x -2

We get

(x + 3)(x+1) = 0

Therefore x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 in factored form is

(x - 2)(x + 3)(x + 1)

Hope this helps.

I need help plzz. <br><br> Dilate this by 1/3
leva [86]
For this shape there are four points. The plotted ordered pairs are:
M = (3, 9)
N = (6, 0)
O = (3, 6)
P = (-3, 0)

All you have to do is multiply the BOTH x- and y-values by 1/3 on EACH ordered pair. And if it’s easier, you can divide by 3 as well. It’s the same thing.

M = (3, 9) = (3*1/3, 9*1/3) = (1, 3)
N = (6, 0) = (6*1/3, 0*1/3) = (2, 0)
O = (3, 6) = (3*1/3, 6*1/3) = (1, 2)
P = (-3, 0) = (-3*1/3, 0*1/3) = (-1, 0)

(1, 3) , (2, 0) , (1, 2) , and (-1, 0) are your points.

Which number is 7.323 rounded to the nearest tenth? A 7.3 6 74 © 7.32 07.33
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Option A - 7.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number 7.323.

To find : Which number is 7.323 rounded to the nearest tenth?

Solution :

Rounded to the nearest tenth rule :

1) If the hundredths place of a decimal is greater than or equal to five, then tenth place number is added by 1.

2) If the hundredths place of a decimal is less than five, then tenth place number does not change.

In the number 7.323

The Hundredth number is 2 < 5 so tenth number does not change.

7.323 rounded to the nearest tenth is 7.3.

Therefore, Option A is correct.
