Answer:
The correct option is;
No, the distance from (0, 0) to (2, √6) is not 3 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters of the question are as follows;
Circle center (h, k) = (0, 0)
Point on the circle (x, y) = (3, 0)
We are required to verify whether point (2, √6) lie on the circle
We note that the radius of the circle is given by the equation of the circle as follows;
Distance² = (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² which gives;
(3 - 0)² + (0 - 0)² = 3²
Hence r² = 3² and r = 3 units
We check the distance of the point (2, √6) from the center of the circle (0, 0) as follows;
Therefore;
(2 - 0)² + (√6 - 0)² = 2² + √6² = 4 + 6 = 10 = √10²
Which gives the distance of the point (2, √6) from the center of the circle (0, 0) = √10
Hence the distance from the circle center (0, 0) to (2, √6) is not √10 which s more than 3 units hence the point (2, √6), does not lie on the circle.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
If the polynomial p(x) is divided by a polynomial of the form x+k (which accounts for all of the possible answer choices in this question), the result can be written as
p(x)/x+k = q(x) + r/x+k
where q(x) is a polynomial and r is the remainder. Since x+k is a degree-1 polynomial (meaning it only includes and no higher exponents), the remainder is a real number.
Therefore, p(x) can be rewritten as p(x) = (x+k)q(x) + r, where r is a real number.
The question states that p(3) = −2, so it must be true that
−2 = p(3) = (3+k)q(3) + r
Now we can plug in all the possible answers. If the answer is A, B, or C, r will be 0, while if the answer is D, r will be −2.
A. −2=p(3)=(3+(−5))q(3)+0
−2=(3−5)q(3)
−2=(−2)q(3)
This could be true, but only if q(3)=1
B. −2=p(3)=(3+(−2))q(3)+0
−2=(3−2)q(3)
−2=(−1)q(3)
This could be true, but only if q(3)=2
C. −2=p(3)=(3+2)q(3)+0
−2=(5)q(3)
This could be true, but only if q(3) = −2/5
D. −2=p(3)=(3+(−3))q(3)+(−2)
−2=(3−3)q(3)+(−2)
−2=(0)q(3)+(−2)
This will always be true no matter what q(3) is.
Of the answer choices, the only one that must be true about p(x) is D, that the remainder when p(x) is divided by x−3 is -2.
The final answer is D.
