Your problem is:
$35.00 is what percentage of $437.50?
If you are given a part and the whole, and you want to know what percent the part is of the whole, divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100.
In this case, the whole is $437.50.
The part is $35.00.
35/437.5 * 100 = 8%
K(cannot equal (the = sign with the line through it) -2
k(=/)-2
40 mins left! total time= 60 mins x 3 hours =180 mins. 180 divided by 9 is 20. 20 times 7 is 140. 180-140 equals 40. yay!
Answer:
1. D) -4/3 or 4/3
2. A) -6 or 8
Step-by-step explanation:
First find all possible rational roots. To do this, find all the factors of the lowest order coefficient and the highest order coefficient. For #1, the highest order coefficient is 1 because the x^3 doesn't have a number in front of it. The lowest order coefficient is 30.
Here are all the factors:
Factors of 1 are: 1
Factors of 30 are: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
Now divide each factor of 30 (positive and negative), and divide them by each factor of 1.
All possible rational roots are:
-1, 1, -2, 2, -3, 3, -5, 5, -5, 6, -10, 10, -15, 15, -30, 30
Now we perform synthetic division like you have started to do. Try dividing the polynomial by each possible root. If the result has a remainder, that possible root does NOT work. Try another possible root. If there is not a remainder, you have found one of the roots.
For example, when dividing x^3 - 4x^2 -11x + 30 by the possible root 2, we get x^2 - 2x - 15 without a remainder. That means 2 is a root. From here we can factor the result to (x-5)(x+3).
So the roots for #1 are x = -3, 2, and 5.
