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!

Provide a recursive definition of the function f(n) = (n+1)!.
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

See definition below

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have to give a recursive definition, we must give a initial value f(0). Additionally, the value of f(n) must depend on the value of f(n-1) for all n≥1.

The required value of f(0) is (0+1)!=1!=1.

Now, the factorial itself is a recursive function, because (n+1)!=(n+1)n!. In terms of f, this means that f(n)=(n+1)f(n-1) for all n≥1.

Then, our definition is: f:N→N is defined by

  1. f(0)=1.
  2. For n≥1, f(n)=(n+1)f(n-1).

Please answer the following<br><br>please explain how you got your answer
Liula [17]

Answer:

P(1) = 4/20 or 1/5

P(2) = 3/20

P(3) = 7/20

P(4) = 6/20 or 3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Crystal spun the spinner 20 times. 1 was the outcome 4 times out of 20 spins, so the experimental probability would be 4/20 or 1/5. Same goes for all the other ones.
