Answer: (b) x = -7, x = 2, x = 4

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Remainder Theorem is used to determine if a given value is a root.

It is stated that (x + 7) is a root ⇒ x + 7 = 0  ⇒ x = -7

We can confirm this by plugging in x = -7 and getting a value of 0.

f(x) = 5x³ + 5x² - 170x + 280

f(-7) = 5(-7)³ + 5(-7)² - 170(-7) + 280

      = -1715 + 245 + 1190 + 280

     = 0

CONFIRMED that x = -7 is a zero!

Next, let's try x = 2

f(2) = 5(2)³ + 5(2)² - 170(2) + 280

      = 40 + 20 - 340 + 280

     = 0

CONFIRMED that x = 2 is a zero!

Lastly, let's try x = 4

f(4) = 5(4)³ + 5(4)² - 170(4) + 280

      = 320 + 80 - 680 + 280

     = 0

CONFIRMED that x = 4 is a zero!

I have a math question

For the first question; we have a problem dealing with translations. Our goal is to translate the word problem into an algebraic one. So our numbers are 60, 2, and 5. Our variable, or the letter holding the unknown number's place value,  is N. <span>

</span>The problem states that 60 is MORE THAN the PRODUCT of 5 and N. Focus on the words I bolded and capitalized. These are your key words that tells you what operations you need to use. Note that 'product' signals the operation of multiplication (Since the answer you get from multiplying numbers is called the 'product'.) and 'more than' signals the operation of addition (Because you are left off with more than you originally had before adding). <span>

</span>Now that we know that our algebraic expression contains multiplication, addition, letter N and the numbers 2 and 5; we can start plugging the numbers in.<span>

</span>60 = 2 (more than) + (product of) 5N. The answer for the first attachment is B. <span>

</span>_____________________________________________________________<span>

</span>All we need to do for the AB problem (Question 25 on your material) is solve AB.<span>

</span>Note 1: When a problem has no operation separating two letters or numbers, this means multiplication.<span>

</span>Note 2: A and B are variables. Variables are letters that stand for and hold the place of our unknown quantities. However, the values are not unknown anymore given the fact that the question tells us that A= 42 and B = 2. Thus we substitute A with 42 and B with 2, then work from there. 42 * 2 =84. Answer = A.

____________________________________________________________________

And finally, for question 26, we use PEMDAS. P = parenthesis (), E = exponent x^2, M/D = x or /, A/S means + or subtraction.

According to PEMDAS, we first solve what's parenthesis, which is 77 – 32. Using mental math, 77 – 32 = 45. ( 7 – 3 = 4 and 7 – 2 = 5.). 5/9 * 45 is what we have left. 5 divided by 9 =0.5555555555555556. 0.5555555555555556 * 45 = 25. Answer is D.

Anton [14]
Answer: 148

Work: 50 men multiplied by 3 =150
If there is two less women from 3 multiplied by 50 (150) , then 150 - 2 = 148

If after 45 minutes han cycled for 6 miles and claire cycled for 9 miles what will the difference between them be after 45 minut
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The difference between them will be 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

When they went for their first round of cycling, which was 45 minutes, it was already a distance of 3 miles adding another 6 to Han's miles and another 9 to Claire's miles it would give you 18 and 12 and 18 minus 12 is 6.

Therefore, it was doubled from the distance only being 3 miles to 6 miles.

<span>$15 Write down some equations that express what you know. A = 2*30 + 3x K = 1*30 + 5x A+K = 210 Substitute the expression for A in the A+K=210 expression 2*30 +3x + K = 210 Now substitute the expression for for K 2*30 + 3x + 1*30 + 5x = 210 Multiply and combine terms 60 + 3x + 30 + 5x = 210 90 + 8x = 210 Subtract 90 from both sides 8x = 120 Divide both sides by 8 x = 120/8 = 15 The cost of one month of game play is $15</span>
