If (x-2) is a factor of x^3+kx^2 +12x-8 then k=?

Mathematics
1 answer:
AURORKA [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

k = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since (x - 2) is a factor then x = 2 is a root

Substitute x = 2 into the polynomial and equate to zero, that is

2³ + k(2)² + 12(2) - 8 = 0

8 + 4k + 24 - 8 = 0

4k + 24 = 0 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

4k = - 24 ( divide both sides by 4 )

k = - 6

The​ point-slope form of the equation of a nonvertical line with slope, m, that passes through the point (x1,y1) is...?
natulia [17]

Answer:

  b. y-y1 = m(x-x1)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a matter of definition. There are perhaps a dozen useful forms of equations for a line. Each has its own name (and use). Here are some of them.

  • slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
  • point-slope form: y -y1 = m(x -x1)
  • two-point form: y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)(x -x1) +y1
  • intercept form: x/a +y/b = 1
  • standard form: ax +by = c
  • general form: ax +by +c = 0

Adding y1 to the point-slope form puts it in an alternate form that is useful for getting to slope-intercept form faster: y = m(x -x1) +y1. I use this when asked to write the equation of a line with given slope through a point, with the result in slope-intercept form.

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

\frac{7}{8} \div \frac{1}{2} = \frac{7}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given four equations and we have to find the equation that gives the number of half inches that are in \frac{7}{8} inches.

To find how many half inches i.e. \frac{1}{2} inches are there in \frac{7}{8} inches we have to divide \frac{7}{8} by \frac{1}{2}.

So, the equation that will give the result is \frac{7}{8} \div \frac{1}{2} = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{7}{4} (Answer)

Divide 2818 by 70 and it comes out to: 40.2571429 it is not 40 because their is still some left over so there will be 41 ferry's and one of them will not be a full ride!
