6 goes into both 42 and 108 (9x12 so you are working with equal measurements) and you get 7/18

Question:</h2>
Find k if (x+1) is a factor of 2x³ + kx² + 1
<h2>
Answer:</h2>
k = 1
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
The factor of a polynomial F(x) is another polynomial that divides evenly into F(x). For example, x + 3 is a factor of the polynomial x² - 9.
<em>This is because;</em>
i. x² - 9 can be written as (x - 3)(x + 3) which shows that both (x - 3) and (x + 3) are factors.
ii. If x = -3 is substituted into the polynomial x² - 9, the result gives zero. i.e
=> (-3)² - 9
=> (9) - 9 = 0
Therefore, if (x + a) is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = -a into the polynomial should result to zero. This also means that, if x - a is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = a into the polynomial should give zero.
<em><u>From the question</u></em>
Given polynomial: 2x³ + kx² + 1
Given factor: x + 1.
Since x + 1 is a factor of the polynomial, substituting x = -1 into the polynomial should give zero and from there we can calculate the value of k. i.e
2(-1)³ + k(-1)² + 1 = 0
2(-1) + k(1) + 1 = 0
-2 + k + 1 = 0
k - 1 = 0
k = 1
Therefore the value of k is 1.
Answer:
y = -x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two points so we can find the slope
m =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(1-2)/(2-1)
-1/1
The slope is -1
We can use the slope intercept form of the equation
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -x+b
Substitute a point into the equation to find b
2 = -1 +b
Add 1 to each side
2+1 =-1+1 +b
3 =b
y = -x+3

Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each bounce. We are asked to find the total distance traveled by up and down from the time it was dropped from the window until the 25th bounce.
We will use sum of geometric sequence formula to solve our given problem.
, where,
a = First term of sequence,
r = Common ratio,
n = Number of terms.
For our given problem 
, 
and 
.
Therefore, the ball will travel 100 meters and option B is the correct choice.
