Why is (x-3) NOT a factor of x3+2x2-5x-6

As the expression is not equal to zero on x=3, x-3 is not a factor of given expression

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

x^3+2x^2-5x-6

We have to check if x-3 is a factor of given expression

In order for x-3 to be a factor of expression, we have to put x-3 = 0 => x=3 in expression.

If the expression is zero at x=3 then x-3 is a factor of expression otherwise not.

So putting x=333 in expression

=(3)^3+2(3)^2-5(3)-6\\= 27+2(9) - 15-6\\= 27+18-15-6\\= 45-21\\=24 \neq 0

As the expression is not equal to zero on x=3, x-3 is not a factor of given expression

Plz help!! A jar contained 6 red marbles, 10 green marbles, and 8 blue marbles. A marble was selected at random, the color was r
Inessa [10]

Answer:

To calculate the relative frequency, first we need to know what exactly is and how to calculate it.

Relative frequency is the ratio between the absolute frequency (how many repetitions have a specific outcome) and the total outcomes. Also, this type of frequency is used to show the representation that some data have over the whole distribution.

So, in this case, we need to just divide 13, which belongs to red marble's results, to 60 which is the total outcomes, as it's presented:

         13redmarble                                                                                                                       Fr = -------------------------

       60 totalmarbles  

Normally, relative frequency is shown as a percentage multiplying this result by 100. Therefore, 22% is the approximate percentage of the relative frequency, which means that 22% is the representation of red marbles outcomes of the whole distribution, or we can say it as a probability: there's 22% of chances when someone extract a marble, it will be red.

Shannon burns 46 calories each hour while sleeping. When she plays basketball, she burns 11 times as many calories as she does w
OLga [1]

Answer: 1012 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Shannon burns 46 calories each hour while sleeping.

When she plays basketball, she burns 11 times as many calories as she does when sleeping. The amount of calories burnt when she plays basketball will be:

= 11 × 46

= 506 calories

She burns twice as many calories each hour when she runs than when she plays basketball. The amount of calories burnt when she runs will be:

= 2 × 506 calories

= 1012 calories

The amount of calories that Shannon burn when she runs for 1 hour will be 1012 calories
