4/8 = 1/5 = .50

That means each cupcake equals $0.50.

Now, multiply

80 * .5 = 40

Answer: Sally would earn $40 if she sells all the cupcakes

TO find out how much she would earn for 80 cupcakes we will find the unit rate for the amount she sold and how much she earned. Lets do it:-

8/4 = .50

$0.50 per cupcake

0.50 * 80 = 40

So if she sells 80 cupcakes she will earn $40.

Use the Factor Theorem and synthetic division to show x + 5 is a factor of f(x) = 2x3 + 7x2 − 14x + 5

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Factor theorem: $f(-5) = 0$ .

Synthetic division: $f(x) = (x + 5)\, (2\, x^2 -3\, x + 1)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Factor Theorem</h3>

By the factor theorem, a monomial of the form $(x - a)$ (where $a$ is a constant) is a factor of polynomial $f(x)$ if and only if $f(a) = 0$ .

In this question, the monomial is $(x + 5)$ , which is equivalently $(x - (-5))$ . $a = -5$ .

$\begin{aligned}& f(-5) \\ &= 2 \times (-5)^{3} + 7 \times (-5)^{2}- 14\times (-5) + 5\\ &= -250 + 175 + 70 + 5 \\ &= 0\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, by the factor theorem, $(x + 5)$ , which is equivalent to $(x - (-5))$ , is a factor of $f(x)$ .

<h3>Synthetic Division</h3>

$\begin{aligned}& f(x) \\ &= 2\, x^{3} + 7\, x^{2} - 14\, x + 5 \\ &= \underbrace{(x + 5) \, (2\, x^2)}_{2\, x^{3} + 10\, x^{2}} - 3\, x^{2} - 14\, x + 5 \\ &= \underbrace{(x + 5) \, (2\, x^2)}_{2\, x^{3} + 10\, x^{2}} + \underbrace{(x + 5)\, (-3\, x)}_{-3\, x^{2} - 15\, x} + (x + 5) \\ &= (x + 5)\, (2\, x^{2} - 3\, x + 1)\end{aligned}$ .

The remainder is $0$ when dividing $f(x)$ by $(x + 5)$ . Hence, $(x + 5)\!$ is a factor of $f(x)\!$ .

Differentiating Exponential functions In Exercise,find the derivative of the function. See Example 2 and 3.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

$f'(x)=-5ae^{ax}=a f(x)$ , where a be a constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The given functions is a constant function because variable term is missing.

Consider the given function is

$f(x)=-5e^{ax}$

where a be a constant.

We need to find the derivative of the function.

Differentiate with respect to x.

$f'(x)=\dfrac{d}{dx}(-5e^{ax})$

$f'(x)=-5\dfrac{d}{dx}(e^{ax})$

$f'(x)=-5e^{ax}\dfrac{d}{dx}(ax)$ $[\because \dfrac{d}{dx}(e^x)=e^x]$

$f'(x)=-5ae^{ax}$

$f'(x)=a(-5e^{ax})$

$f'(x)=a f(x)$

Therefore, the derivative of the function is $f'(x)=-5ae^{ax}=a f(x)$ .
