ABC has vertices A(–3, –4), B(1, 5), and C(4,1). ABC is translated so that B’ is located at point (–3, 2). State the coordinates

koban [17]

If B went from (1, 5) to (-3, 2), that means it was shifted down 4 units and left 3 units. So for each of the other points, we subtract 4 from the x value, and subtract 3 from the y value. Point A is (-3, -4), moving this by subtracting 4 from x and 3 from y, we get A'(-7, -7). Point C was (4, 1), subtract 4 and 3, leaving C'(0, -2).
So A'(-3, -4), B'(-3, 2) and C'(0, -2)

What is the remainder when the polynomial f(x)=3x^3-4x^2+2x+8 is divided by (x-5)

yaroslaw [1]

The remainder when the polynomial f(x) = 3x³ - 4x² + 2x + 8 is divided by (x - 5) is constant an equal f(5).

Substitute x = 5 to the polynomial:

$f(5)=3(5^3)-4(5^2)+2(5)+8=3(125)-4(25)+10+8\\\\=375-100+18=275+18=293$
