we know that

If (x-8) is a factor of the function f(x)=-2x^{3}+17x^{2}-64

then

x=8 is a root of the function f(x)

therefore

For x=8 the value of the function must be zero

Verify

Substitute the value of x=8 in the function

f(8)=-2(8)^{3}+17(8)^{2}-64

f(8)=-2(512)+17(64)-64

f(8)=-1,024+1,088-64

f(8)=-1,088+1,088

f(8)=0

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

Yes, (x-8) is a factor of the function f(x)

X-8=0
x=8
f(8)=-2(8)^3 +17(8)^2 - 64
=-2(512) + 17(64) - 64
 = -1024+1088-64
= -1024 -64+1088
= -1088+1088
=0

so, x-8 is a factor of the function f(x) = -2x3 +17x2 - 64

hope this helps!!!!!! ^_^_^

The given line passes through the points (0, −3) and (2, 3).
Alex Ar [27]
Well, parallel lines have the same exact slope, so hmmm what's the slope of the one that runs through <span>(0, −3) and (2, 3)?

</span>\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}&#10;&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&&(~ 0 &,& -3~) &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&&(~ 2 &,& 3~)&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% slope  = m&#10;slope =  m\implies &#10;\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{3-(-3)}{2-0}\implies \cfrac{3+3}{2-0}\implies 3
<span>
so, we're really looking for a line whose slope is 3, and runs through -1, -1

</span>\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}&#10;&&x_1&&y_1\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&&(~ -1 &,& -1~)&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% slope  = m&#10;slope =  m\implies 3&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% point-slope intercept&#10;\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-1)=3[x-(-1)]&#10;\\\\\\&#10;y+1=3(x+1)<span>
</span>

2x-7y=18 _(1)
-2x+4y=5

11y=23 , Y=23/11 sub in 1

2x-7×23/11=18

2x = 18×11 + 7×23

x = ( 198 + 161 )/2 = 359/2

Hiro and his co-workers had lunch at a restaurant near their work. An 18% tip on their bill was $10.08. How much was the bill, n
Ghella [55]

Answer:

$8.27

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the tip.  We know it was 18% of the total. So...

x (the variable we need to find)         18%

__                                                   =     ___

10.08 (the total bill including tip)        100%

cross multiply

100x = 181.44

--------------------   (divide by 100 to get x by itself)

100

x = 1.81 (The 18% tip that was given)

So now we know how much the tip was, we subtract it from the bill

10.08 - 1.81 = $8.27

Hello please help with my question, I will give brainlyest!
lilavasa [31]

No, John is incorrect.

<h3>Correct work shown:</h3>

\sf x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0

\sf x^2 - 6x = 7

\sf x^2 - 6x  + 9= 7 + 9

\sf (x-3)^2= 16

\sf x-3=\pm \sqrt{16}

\sf x-3= \pm 4

\sf x= + 4 + 3 \quad or \quad x = -4 + 3

\sf x= 7 \quad or \quad x = -1

The correct answer should be x = 7 or x = -1
