Find the possible rational roots and use synthetic division to find the first zero.
I chose x=1 (which represents the factor "x-1")

1║2  -7  -13    63  -45
  ║     2    -5  -18    45
    2  -5  -18    45    0
(x-1) is a factor, (2x³ - 5x² - 18x + 45) is the other factor.

Use synthetic division on the decomposed polynomial to find the next zero.
I chose x = 3 (which represents the factor "x-3")

3║2  -5  -18    45 
  ║     6     3   -45   
    2   1  -15     0   

Using synthetic division, we discovered that (x-1), (x-3), & (2x² + x -15) are factors.  Take the new decomposed polynomial (2x² + x -15) and find the last two factors using any method.

Final Answer: (x-1)(x-3)(x+3)(2x-5)

U would factor by grouping and get x^2(x-2) + 3(x-2) and then get (x^2 +3) (x-2)

Everything in a store is discounted by 25%. What is the sale price of a clock with a regular price of $24.60?​
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

$24.35

Step-by-step explanation:

sale price⇒ total price-discount price

s.p=$24.60-25/100                              ∴25%⇒25/100

s.p⇒$2460/100-25/100                           ∴24.60⇒2460/100

s.p⇒$24.35

           ⇒$24.35

danny is installing a fence around his rectangular yard. His yard is 20feet by 45feet. If the fence cost 25 per foot based on th
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

$225

Step-by-step explanation:

The area to be fenced in is 20 ft by 45 ft, or 900 ft^2.  But "25 per foot based on the area" is illogical.  Please ensure that you have copied this problem down accurately, and be sure to provide units of measurement:  did you mean $25 per square foot, or per foot, or what?

The fencing cost is usually dependent on the unit cost and the length of the yard perimeter.  The perimeter is P = 2L + 2W, which here is P = 2(45 ft) + 2(20 ft), or 130 ft.  If the fencing is 25 cents per foot, $130 ft of fencing would come to $32.50.
