Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

This was originally a third degree polynomial:

2x^3+4x^2-4x+6, to be exact.

When you divide by -3, you are basically trying to determine if x + 3 is a zero of that third degree polynomial.  The quotient is always one degree lesser than the polynomial you started with, and if there is no remainder, then x + 3 is a zero of the polynomial and you could go on to factor the second degree polynoial completely to get all 3 solutions.  To perform the synthetic division, you always first bring down the number in the first position, in our case a 2.  Then multiply that 2 by -3 to get -6.

-3|  2   4   -4   6

          -6

    2    -2

So far this is what we have done.  Now we multiply the -3 by the -2 and put that up under the -4 and add:

-3|  2   4   -4   6

          -6   6

    2    -2   2

Now we multiply the -3 by the 2 to get -6 and put that up under the 6 and add:

-3|   2   4   -4   6

           -6    6  -6

      2    -2   2   0

That last row gives us the depressed polynomial, which as stated earlier here, is one degree less than what you started with:

2x^2-2x+2

Answer: OPTION B

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to follow these steps:

- Carry the number 2 down and multiply it by the the number -3.

- Place the product obtained above the horizontal line, below the number 4 and add them.

- Put the sum below the horizontal line.

- Multiply this sum by the number -3.

- Place the product obtained above the horizontal line, below the number -4 and add them.

- Put the sum below the horizontal line.

- Multiply this sum by the number -3.

- Place the product obtained above the horizontal line, below the number 6 and add them.

Then:

-3\ |\ 2\ \ \ \ \ 4\ \ -4\ \ \ \ \ \ 6\\\.\ \ \ \ \ |\ \ \ \ -6\ \ \ \ \ 6\ \ \ -6

-----------------

.\ \ \ \ \ \ 2\ \ \ -2\ \ \ \ 2\ \ \ \ \ 0

 Therefore, the quotient in polynomial form is:

2x^2-2x+2

7 + 8 + 9 = 24

24 / 2 = 12

So 12 cards in each pile.

Does anybody know the answer? <br> I feel like it's 180
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The sum of a° and b° will be 180°.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that two angles are supplementary when they add up to 180 degrees.

We also know that we know that a straight angle is said to be having 180 degrees. A straight angle does change the direction to point the opposite way.

i.e.

Straight angle = 180°

For example, a flat surface does have an angle of 180 degrees. Also, a straight stick does have a straight angle or 180 degree.

So, from the figure, the sum of a° and b° will be 180° as they add up to 180 degrees on a straight line and hence a° and b° are supplementary angles.

Therefore, the sum of a° and b° will be 180°.
