Answer:

0.9545

Step-by-step explanation:

Let an integer be x.

If x is increased by 15%, then the value of the number would be

115/100x=1.15x

If 1.15x is decreased by 17%, then the value of the number would be:

(100-17)/100×1.15x

83/100×1.15x=0.9545x

Find k. ..................

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

k = -10

Explanation:

f(x) = 4x³ - 3kx² + 44x - 30

The divisor is:

(x - 2)

Set divisor to zero:

(x - 2) = 0

x = 2

Insert this into equation.

⇒ 4(2)³ - 3k(2)² + 44(2) - 30 = 210

⇒ 32 - 12k + 88 - 30 = 210

⇒ -12k + 90 = 210

⇒ -12k = 210 - 90

⇒ -12k = 120

⇒ k = 120/-12

⇒ k = -10
