Answer: 26

Step-by-step explanation: From the remainder theorem ,

If P (x) = 2x⁴ ⁻ x³ + 2x² ⁻ 6. is divided by ( x - 2 ).

It means that if P(x) is divided by (x - 2 ) and leaves a Remainder, it implies that x - 2 is not a factor of P(x) , but if it leaves no remainder, it means x-2 is a factor of P(x).

Therefore , to find the remainder, find the zero of x - 2, and substitutes for the value in P(x)  to know the remainder

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

Now put this in P(x)

P(x) = 2(2)⁴ - (2)³ + 2(2)² - 6

= 2(16) -8 + 2(4) -6

= 32 -8 +8 -6

=26

Therefore the remainder when P(x) is divided by x -2

=26

Note: Since the division of P(x) by x - 2 leaves a remainder, it means that

x - 2 ≠ a factor of P(x)

Subtract −7n+2 ​​from 2n−1 ​. What is the answer? A.−5n+1 B.9n−3 C.9n + 1 D.−9n+3
Ludmilka [50]
Make sure that the subtraction is set up in the correct order. We are subtracting -7+2 FROM 2n-1.

(2n-1) - (-7n+2)

Distribute the negative.

(2n-1) + (7n-2)

Combine like terms.

9n - 3

The answer is B.

Answer:

  6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want the slope of the line on a graph when x is the independent variable, then solve for y:

  -28y = -24x +14 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract the x-term

  y = (-24/-28)x +14/(-28) . . . . . divide by the y-coefficient

  y = 6/7x -1/2

The "rate of change" is the coefficient of x, 6/7.

spayn [35]
A circle has a total number of 360 degrees, so you would divide 360 by 8, and that would tell you how many degrees each slice is:
360 / 8 = 40
 After that, you would subtract 3 from 8 to show that there are 5 pieces left:
8 - 3 = 5
which you would then multiply by 40 because each slice is 40 degrees, so you would get an answer of
5 x 40 = 200 degrees.
