Let x be the retail price of the TV
55% of x is 0.55x
Wholesale price = x - 0.55x
Wholesale price = x(1 - 0.55)
= 0.45x
The wholesale price is 0.45 times the retail price.

The length of a rectangle is 5 less than 3 times its width. The perimeter is

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The length is 28 and the width is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can make the width as x.

Since the length is 5 less than 3 times the width, it's going to be 3x - 5

So now we've got the length and width, just need to find the perimeter, which is all the sides added up together. They already gave us the perimeter, so we just have to solve the equation:

2(3x - 5) + 2x = 78

6x - 10 + 2x = 78

8x - 10 = 78

8x = 88

x = 11

x = 11, but remember, x is the width, not the length. Since we already found what x is, we just have to plug it into the equation of:

3x - 5

3 × 11 - 5

33 - 5 = 28

Answer: Length = 28 (don't forget to add the unit if there is one)

factor completely 4x5 − 20x4 − 36x3. 4(x5 − 5x4 − 9x3) x3(4x2 − 20x − 36) x2 − 5x − 9 4x3(x2 − 5x − 9)

Mila [183]

Consider the polynomial $4x^5 - 20x^4 - 36x^3.$ It has three terms and their greatest common factor is $4x^3.$

Since

$4x^5=4x^3\cdot x^2,\\20x^4=4x^3\cdot 5x,\\36x^3=4x^3\cdot 9,$

then

$4x^5 - 20x^4 - 36x^3=4x^3(x^2-5x-9)$ (you write in brackets the same sign as the corresponding term has).

Answer: correct choice is D.

Answer:

B. No, the remainder is -50.

General Formulas and Concepts:

Algebra I

Roots are when the polynomial are equal to 0

Algebra II

Synthetic Division

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Function f(x) = x³ - 10x² + 27x - 12

Divisor/Root (x + 1)

Step 2: Synthetic Division

See Attachment.

To determine whether a given root is an actual root, the remainder must equal 0. Since we have a remainder of -50, the given root is not a factor of the polynomial.

Please excuse the bad handwriting. Hope this helped!
