Answer:

distance apart= 9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The library , post office and gas station are all on elm street. The library is 3 miles away westward of the post office. The gas station is also 6 miles east of the post office. The distance between the library and the gas station can be computed below.

The post office is located at the middle between the library and the gas station. The library goes 3 miles westward of the post office while the gas station goes 6 miles eastward of the post office. The distance apart between the library and the gas station is the sum of the distance of the gas station from the post office and the distance of the library from the post office .

Therefore,

6miles  + 3 miles = 9 miles

Solve 9x2 + 6 = 12x
Oksana_A [137]

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² + 6 = 12x

3x² + 2 = 4x

3x² − 4x + 2 = 0

Use quadratic formula.

x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a

x = [ -(-4) ± √((-4)² − 4(3)(2)) ] / 2(3)

x = [ 4 ± √(16 − 24) ] / 6

x = [ 4 ± √(-8) ] / 6

x = (4 ± 2i√2) / 6

x = (2 ± i√2) / 3

Find the remainder when x^100 - x^99 + x^98 − · · · − x + 1 is divided by x + 1.
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The remainder is 101.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dividing:

(x^{100}-x^{99}+x^{98}...-x+1)\div(x+1)

By the Polynomial Remainder Theorem, if we are dividing a polynomial P(x) by a binomial in the form (x - a), the our remainder will be P(a).

The divisor is (x + 1). Therefore, our a = -1.

Then the remainder will be:

P(-1)

We can rewrite our polynomial as:

P(x)=-(x^{99}+x^{97}...+x^3+x)+(x^{100}+x^{98}...+x^2)+1

Each of the parentheses contain fifty terms. -1 to any odd power is -1, and -1 to any even power is 1. Therefore:

P(-1)=-(-50)+(50)+1

Evaluate:

P(-1)=101

The remainder is 101.
