Answer:

k=5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are provided with function, f ( x ) = 3 x^{2} + kx − 13

which is divided by x+4 gives 15.

Here,

since f(x) is divided by x+4 so we can put :

x+4 = 0

x= -4

Putting this in f(x) -----> f(-4)

f(x) = f(-4) = 3 (-4^{2}) + k(-4) − 13

f(-4) = 3(16) - 4k - 13

f (-4) = 48 - 4k - 13                ------------------------------------------Equation 1

Since, when f(x) is divided by x+4 , the remainder is 15 so we can say,

f(-4) = 15

putting in equation 1

f (-4) = 15 = 48 - 4k - 13

48 -4k - 13 = 15

35 - 4k = 15                      

35 - 15 = 4k                         (Moving - 4k on right hand side and 15 on the left)

or 20 = 4k

or 4k = 20

k = \frac{20}{4}

<h2>k = 5</h2>

Why are you allowed to move the decimal points before
Anna [14]

Answer:

If you move the decimal point the same number of places in the dividend and the divisor, you are multiplying them both by the same power of 10. That does not change the quotient

A biologist wants to know the width w of a river in order to properly set instruments for studying the pollutants in the water.
belka [17]

Answer:   The river is 148.3 feet wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Please refer the diagram I have attached.

The triangle formed is a right triangle.

Using SOH CAH TOA

tan 56 = \frac{x}{100}

Multiplying 100 in both sides

x = 100 \times tan56

x = 100 \times 1.4826

x = 148.26

Rounding to the one decimal place

x = 148.3

Hence river is 148.3 feet wide.   .............. Answer

Hope it will help :)
