Is (x +1) a factor of f(x) = x3 + 2x2 −5x − 6 ? Yes No

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find it out by factoring but ill do it easier way.

(x + 1 ) = 0 put the first and second equation to 0

x = -1

x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 = 0 Now plug in the x in the equation

(-1)³ + 2(-1)² - 5(-1) - 6 = 0

0 = 0

so (x + 1) is a factor.

A triangle has a base of x 1/2 m and a height of x 3/4 m. If the area of te triangle is 16m to the power of 2, what are the base

Olenka [21]

Answer:

The base of triangle is $\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} \ m$ and the height of triangle is $\frac{12}{\sqrt{3}} \ m.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A triangle has a base of x 1/2 m and a height of x 3/4 m. If the area of the triangle is 16m to the power of 2.

Now, to find the base and height of the triangle.

The base of triangle = $x\times\frac{1}{2} =\frac{x}{2} \ m.$

The height of triangle = $x\times \frac{3}{4} =\frac{3x}{4}\ m.$

The area of triangle = $16\ m^2.$

Now, we put the formula of area to solve:

$Area=\frac{1}{2} \times base\times height$

$16=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{x}{2} \times \frac{3x}{4}$

$16=\frac{3x^2}{16}$

Multiplying both sides by 16 we get:

$256=3x^2$

Dividing both sides by 3 we get:

$\frac{256}{3} =x^2$

Using square root on both sides we get:

$\frac{16}{\sqrt{3}}=x$

$x=\frac{16}{\sqrt{3}}$

Now, by substituting the value of $x$ to get the base and height:

$Base=\frac{x}{2}\\\\Base=\frac{\frac{16}{\sqrt{3}}}{2} \\\\Base=\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} \ m.$

So, the base of triangle = $\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} \ m.$

$Height=x\times\frac{3}{4} \\\\Height=\frac{16}{\sqrt{3}}\times \frac{3}{4} \\\\Height=\frac{12}{\sqrt{3}} \ m.$

Thus, the height of triangle = $\frac{12}{\sqrt{3}} \ m.$

Therefore, the base of triangle is $\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} \ m$ and the height of triangle is $\frac{12}{\sqrt{3}} \ m.$

Expand and Simplify (x-2)^2

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

$\boxed{\ x^2-4x+4 \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x-2)^2 = (x-2)(x-2)=x(x-2)*-2(x-2)=x^2-2x-2x+4=x^2-4x+4$

The admission fee at a small fair is $1.50 for children and $4.00 for adults. John spent $12.00 for admission. Write an equation

g100num [7]

So what you are trying to find is the certain amount of children tickets and adult tickets. the final amount is a total of $12. This means that a unknown number of children tickets (c) times 1.50 (price of each ticket for children) plus the unknown number of adult tickets (a) times 4.00 (price of each ticket for adults) equals a final cost of $12.00.

Equation: 1.50c+4.00a= 12.00
