-4
Because 15x-7x= 8x
8x+5x= 13x
13x= -52
-52 / 13= -4
x = -4
Answer:
A) Distance time graph
B) d(t) = 25t
C) The expression shows the distance more clearly.
Step-by-step explanation:
A) A distance time graph as seen in the attachment provides a representation of the distance travelled.
We are told the car travels at a constant speed of 100 meters per 4 seconds. Which means that 100 m for each 4 hours. So, for 200m, it's 8 hours like seen in the graph and for 300m,it's 12 hours as seen in the graph.
B) And expression for the distance is;
d = vt
Where;
d is distance in metres
v is speed in m/s and t is time
We are told that the car travels at a constant speed of 100 meters per 4 seconds.
Thus, v = 100/4 = 25 m/s
Distance travelled over time is;
d(t) = 25t
C) Looking at both A and B above, it's obvious that the expression of the distance shows a more clearer way of getting the distance because once we know the time travelled, we will just plug it into the equation and get the distance. Whereas, for the representation form, one will need to longer graphs if the time spent is very long.
<span>I note that this problem starts out with "Which is a factor of ... " This implies that you were given several answer choices. If that's the case, it's unfortunate that you haven't shared them.
I thought I'd try finding roots of this function using synthetic division. See below:
f(x) = 6x^4 – 21x^3 – 4x^2 + 24x – 35
Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation. Thanks.
Possible zeros of this poly are factors of 35: plus or minus 1, plus or minus 5, plus or minus 7. Use synthetic division; determine whether or not there is a non-zero remainder in each case. If none of these work, form rational divisors from 35 and 6 and try them: 5/6, 7/6, 1/6, etc.
Provided that you have copied down the function
</span>f(x) = 6x^4 – 21x^3 – 4x^2 + 24x – 35 properly, this approach will eventually turn up 1 or 2 zeros of this poly. Obviously it'd be much easier if you'd check out the possible answers given you with this problem.
By graphing this function, I found that the graph crosses the x-axis at 7/2. There is another root.
Using synth. div. to check whether or not 7/2 is a root:
___________________________
7/2 / 6 -21 -4 24 -35
21 0 -14 35
----------- ------------------------------
6 0 -4 10 0
Because the remainder is zero, 7/2 (or 3.5) is a root of the polynomial. Thus, (x-3.5), or (x-7/2), is a factor.
Answer:
Area of triangle RST = 95 in² (Approx)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Side a = 22 in
Side b = 13 in
Perimeter = 50 in
Find:
Area of triangle
Computation:
Side c = Perimeter - Side a - Side b
Side c = 50 - 22 - 13
Side c = 15 in
Heron's formula:
s = Perimeter / 2 = 50 / 2
s = 25 in
Area of triangle = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
Area of triangle = √25(25-22)(25-12)(25-15)
Area of triangle = √25(3)(13)(10)
Area of triangle = 5√390
Area of triangle = 5 × 19(approx)
Area of triangle RST = 95 in² (Approx)
