Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

5(2x-3)-(x+8) = 13

10x-15-x-8 = 13

Factor the cubic polynomial 6x3 – 11x2 – 12x 5. use the rational root theorem and synthetic division
pochemuha

The factorization of given cubic polynomial 6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5 is:  

6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5 = (x + 1)(x - \frac{5}{2})(x - \frac{1}{3})

For given question,

We have been given the cubic polynomial 6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5

We need to factorize given cubic polynomial.

By the rational roots theorem, any rational zero of f(x) is expressible in the form ± \frac{p}{q} for integers p, q with p a divisor of the constant term 5 and q a divisor of the coefficient 6 of the leading term.

Factors of p = 5: 1, 5

Factors of q = 6: 1, 2, 3, 6

That means that the only possible rational zeros are:

±{ \frac{1}{1} ,\frac{1}{2} ,\frac{1}{3} ,\frac{1}{6} ,\frac{5}{1} ,\frac{5}{2} ,\frac{5}{3} ,\frac{5}{6} }

= ±{ 1 ,\frac{1}{2} ,\frac{1}{3} ,\frac{1}{6} ,5 ,\frac{5}{2} ,\frac{5}{3} ,\frac{5}{6} }

We need to find the exact zeros of given cubic polynomial.

For x = 1,

6(1)³ - 11(1)² - 12(1) + 5 = -12

This means, x = 1 is not a zero of given cubic polynomial.

For x = -1,

6(-1)³ - 11(-1)² - 12(-1) + 5 = 0

This means, x = -1 is a zero of given cubic polynomial and (x + 1) is a factor.

To factorize given cubic polynomial we use synthetic division.

The synthetic division (6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5) ÷ (x + 1) is as shown in following image.

⇒ 6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5 = (x + 1)(6x² - 17x + 5)

The factors of above quadratic polynomial 6x² - 17x + 5 are:

⇒ 6x² - 17x + 5 = (x - \frac{5}{2})(x - \frac{1}{3})

So, the factors of given cubic polynomial are:

⇒ 6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5 = (x + 1)(x - \frac{5}{2})(x - \frac{1}{3})

Therefore, the factorization of given cubic polynomial 6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5 is:  6x³ - 11x² - 12x + 5 = (x + 1)(x - \frac{5}{2})(x - \frac{1}{3})

Eriko cuts out a paper quadrilateral with two angles that each measure 60° and two angles that each measure 120°. Only two of th
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The quadrilateral is Parallelogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral is a four-sided regular polygon.

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral.

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal in length.

The opposite angles of a parallelogram are also equal.

In this case the quadrilateral is defined as follows:

  • two angles that each measure 60°
  • two angles that each measure 120°
  • Only two of the sides have a length of 3.2 inches.

Consider the quadrilateral ABCD below.

The quadrilateral ABCD is Parallelogram.
