Answer:

A) (x-3) is not a factor of x^3+4x^2+2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-3) is a factor of f(x)=x^3+4x^2+2 if f(3)=0. This is by factor theorem.

So let's check it.

f(x)=x^3+4x^2+2

f(3)=3^3+4(3)^2+2

f(3)=27+4(9)+2

f(3)=27+36+2

f(3)=63+2

f(3)=65

Since f(3) doesn't equal 0, then x-3 is not a factor.

Answer:

A. (x-3) is not a factor

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find if (x-3) is a factor of the polynomial by dividing the polynomial by (x-3) by using long division or synthetic division.

Long division:                          

          x^2+x+3

(x-3)/x^3+4x^2+0x+2

      -(x^3-3x^2)

                 x^2+0x

                -(x^2-3x)

                         3x+2

                        -(3x-9)

                               -7  

Here you can see that (x-3) is not a factor of the polynomial because when you divide x^3 + 4x^2 + 2 by (x-3), there is a remainder of -7

Synthetic Division (A shortcut version of long division just to see if there is a remainder and if the supposed factor is really a factor) :

3          1            4           0           2    

           -           3           21          63

           1            7           21          65

As seen before (x-3) is not a factor of the polynomial because there is a remainder.  If 65 were 0, the (x-3) would be a factor of the polynomial.

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the function f(x) = log(2x + 1) − 1.
sleet_krkn [62]
<span>Alright, here's your answer.

y-intercept is computed (not found) by assigning x = 0 and computing y: here that is f(0) = Log(2*0 + 1) – 1 = Log(1) – 1 = 0 – 1 = -1 
y-intercept is (0, -1) 

x-intercept is computed by solving f(x) = 0 for x: here that is 
0 = Log(2x + 1) – 1 → 1 = Log(2x + 1) 

Assuming the Log cited is base 10, then 10^1 = 10^Log(2x + 1) = 2x + 1 

That’s 10 = 2x + 1 

Therefore 9 = 2x 
x = 9/2 = 4.5 
Check this result in the original equation, I did! 

Your answer is - x-intercept is (4.5, 0)

I hope I helped! :)

Carlos has scored 83, 81, and 73 on his previous three tests. What score does he need on his next test so that his average (mean
disa [49]

Answer:

95

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be his mark in the fourth test, then

mean = \frac{83+81+73+x}{4} = 83 ( multiply both sides by 4 )

83 + 81 + 73 + x = 332

237 + x = 332 ( subtract 237 from both sides )

x = 95
