Michelle's result shows f(2) = -13, selection C.

Answer:

C. -13

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial f(x) she is dividing would be f(x)=1x²-7x-3. This is because in synthetic division, the numbers used are the coefficients of the polynomial, and the polynomial will have a degree one larger than the divisor. Since the divisor is x-2, with a degree of 1, the polynomial will have a degree of 2, meaning it begins with an x².

The first coefficient is 1; this is 1x². The second coefficient is -7; this is -7x. The last coefficient is -3; this is -3. Together, this gives us

f(x) = 1x²-7x-3

To find f(2), substitute 2 in for every x:

f(2) = 1(2²)-7(2)-3 = 1(4)-14-3 = 4-14-3 = -10-3 = -13

Use the cosine ratio or the inverse cosine to solve for x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

maria [59]

Answer:

x ≈ 12.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

By using cosine ratio in the given right triangle RTS,

cos(S)° = $\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

cos(33)° = $\frac{\text{ST}}{\text{SR}}$

cos(33)° = $\frac{x}{15}$

x = 15.cos(33)°

x = 12.58

x ≈ 12.6 m

Therefore, measure of side ST = 12.6 m is the answer.

An item cost $480 before tax , and tge sales tax is $9.60

elena-s [515]

Answer:

0.02 ; 2%

Cost of item = $480

Tax amount on item = $9.60

The sales tax rate = tax amount on item / cost of item

Sales tax rate = $9.60 / $480 = 0.02

As a percentage :

0.02 * 100% = 2%

At a football game Jasmine bought a soft pretzel for $2.25 in a bottle of water for $1.50 she paid with a $5 bill how much thing

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

$1.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that at a football game Jasmine bought a soft pretzel for $2.25 in a bottle of water for $1.50 she paid with a $5 bill.

First of all let us find how much Jasmine spent on soft pretzel and water bottle by adding the cost of both items.

$\text{Total amount spent on both items}=2.25+1.50$

$\text{Total amount spent on both items}=3.75$

To find the amount that Jasmine will get as a change we will subtract the amount spent on both items from 5.

$\text{Amount of change that Jasmine will get}=5-3.75$

$\text{Amount of change that Jasmine will get}=1.25$

Therefore, Jasmine will get $1.25 back as change.
