Answer: The answer is YES.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to check whether (x - 8) is a factor of the function f(x)=-2x^3+17x^2-64.

Factor Theorem states that if (x - a) is a factor of P(x), the we must have P(a) = 0.

We have

f(8)\\\\=-2\times 8^3+17\times 8^2-64\\\\=-2\times 512+17\times 64-64\\\\=-2048+16\times 64\\\\=-1024+1024\\\\=0.

Thus, (x - 8) is a factor of f(x).

Yes when the function f(x) = -2x3+17x2-64 is divided by x-8, the remainder is zero. Therefore, x-8 is a factor of f(x) = -2x3+17x2-64

suter [353]

Answer:

5\sqrt{10}\ units

5 StartRoot 10 EndRoot

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The legs of a 45°-45°-90° triangle are congruent

Let

x ---->  the length of one leg of the triangle

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

c^2=a^2+b^2

where

c is the hypotenuse

a and b are the legs

we have

c=10\sqrt{5}\ units

a=b=x\ units

substitute

(10\sqrt{5})^2=x^2+x^2

500=2x^2\\x^2=250\\x=\sqrt{250}\ units

Simplify

x=5\sqrt{10}\ units

5 StartRoot 10 EndRoot

Answer:

The best choice is y = 82.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Just simplify both sides of the equation, then isolate the variable.

Which makes it's exact form y= 34^5/4 and when converting it to decimal form it becomes y = 82.1
