Answer:

The remaining solutions are -7 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The synthetic division is shown in the attachment. After dividing the first two found factors from the polynomial, the remaining quadratic is ...

x^2 +4x -21 = 0

Its rational roots will be factors of -21, and the sum of their opposites will be 4. Knowing that 21 = 3·7, we can guess that the remaining roots are -7 and 3. The synthetic division confirms that. (A graph also confirms it.)

if y varies inversely as x and y = 194 when x = -13, find y when x = 50. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessar

pashok25 [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y varies inversely as x.

$\therefore \: y = \frac{k}{x} \\ (k = constant \: of \: proportionality) \\ \therefore \: xy = k...(1) \\ plug \: y = 194 \: \: and \: \: x = - 13 \: in \: (1) \\ \therefore \: - 13 \times 194= k \\ \therefore \: k = - 2522 \\ substituting \: k = - 2522 \: in \: (1) \\ xy = - 2522...(2) \\ this \: is \: equation \: of \: variation. \\ plug \: x = 50 \: in \: (2) \\ 50 \times y = - 2522 \\ \therefore \:y = \frac{ - 2522}{50} \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \:y = - 50.44}}$

The Cool Company determines that the supply function for its basic air conditioning unit is S(p) = 10 + 0.002p3 and that its dem

Radda [10]

Answer: At $21.85, the supply will equal to demand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Demand function is given by

$D(p) = 50 - 0.04p^2, \text{where p is the price.}$

Supply function is given by

$S(p) = 10 + 0.002p^3$

According to question, we need to find the price for which the supply equals the demand, i.e. Equilibrium price and quantity.

$D(p)=S(p)\\\\50-0.04p^2=10+0.002p^3\\\\50-10=0.002p^3+0.04p^2\\\\40=\frac{2}{1000}p^3+\frac{4}{100}p^2\\\\40=\frac{2}{100}p^2(\frac{1}{10}p+2)\\\\\frac{40\times 100}{2}=p^2(\frac{1p+20}{2})\\\\\mathrm{The\:Newton-Raphson\:method\:uses\:an\:iterative\:process\:to\:approach\:one\:root\:of\:a\:function}\\\\p\approx \:21.85861\dots$

So, at $21.85, the supply will equal to demand.
