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

In the diagram below, AB = BD = BC, and mZA = 24°. Find<br> mZC.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

m∠C = 66°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB = BD, it means this triangle is an Isosceles triangle and as such;

∠BAD = ∠BDA = 24°

Thus, since sum of angles in a triangle is 180,then;

∠ABD = 180 - (24 + 24)

∠ABD = 180 - 48

∠ABD = 132°

We are told that BC = BD.

Thus, ∆BDC is an Isosceles triangle whereby ∠BCD = ∠BDC

Now, in triangles, we know that an exterior angle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles.

Thus;

132 = ∠BCD + ∠BDC

Since ∠BCD = ∠BDC, then

∠BCD = ∠BDC = 132/2

∠BCD = ∠BDC = 66°

What are the intercepts to the line
Roman55 [17]
The x-intercept is 8 because it passes through the horizontal line (x) at point 8.
The y-intercept is -4 because it passes through the vertical line a (y) at point -4.
The correct answer is B.
