Find the values of A & B so that x^4+x^3+ax+b is divisible by x^2+1

Mathematics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]3 years ago

Answer:

a = 1 b = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the quotient when you divide x^4+x^3+ax+b  by x^2 + 1 is

x^2 + ax + b then expanding we have:

(x^2 + 1)(x^2 + ax + b)

= x^4 + ax^3 + bx^2 + x^2 + ax + b

= x^4 + ax^3 + (b + 1)x^2 + ax + b Comparing this with the original expression:

  x^4 +  x^3  + 0 x^2       + ax + b  Comparing coefficients:

a = 1 and b+ 1 = 0 so b = -1.

Put this equation into slope- intercept form. -2x + 3y = 9​
AveGali [126]

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to put it in slope intercept form (y = mx + b), y needs to be isolated.

Add 2x to both sides:

-2x + 3y = 9​

3y = 2x + 9

Then, divide both sides of the equation by 3.

3y = 2x + 9

y = 2/3x + 3 is the equation in slope intercept form

Can someone help me with this math problem
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

B. (m-1)(m-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of 8 (constant term) are

{(1,8), (2,4)}, from which we see that 1+8 = 9, the absolute value of the coefficient of the second term.

Therefore we can group the expression as

m^2 - 9m + 8

= m^2-m - (8m -8)

then factor each group

= m(m-1) - 8(m-1)

and factor out (m-1)

= (m-1)(m-8)

Which equation is perpendicular to the y axis
docker41 [41]
C is the only one that is perpendicular.
The quickest way I can explain it is that the y-axis runs up and down, making the slope undefined. Something perpendicular to an undefined slope is a 0-slope. The only equation of the choices that has a 0-slope is C. Comment if you want a more detailed answer.
