The polynomial remainder theorem says when we divide polynomial f(x) by x-a we'll get remainder f(a).

f(x)=x^3 - 3x^2 - 31x - 72

f(8)=8^3 - 3(8^2) - 31(8) - 72

f(8)=512 - 3(64) - 31(8) - 72 = 512-192-248-72 = 0

Since <em>f(8)=0</em> that means <em>x-8</em> has a remainder zero when divided by <em>f(x).</em> In other words, it's a factor of <em>f(x)</em>.

Suppose that the probability that your mail is delivered before 2 pm is .90. What is the probability that your mail will be deli
iren2701 [21]
Given that the probability of mail being delivered is 0.90, to evaluate the probability that the mail will be delivered before 2 p.m for 2 consecutive days will be evaluated as follows:
Let the probability that the milk will be delivered before 2 p.m be P(x). Since the two days are independent events, the probability of the mail being delivered before 2 p.m in 2 consecutive days will be:
P(x)×P(x)
=0.9×0.9
=0.81

Marco is studying a type of mold that grows at a fast rate. He created the function f(x) = 345(1.30)x to model the number of mol
Ivahew [28]

1.30 represents the rate of growth of the mold spores. This decimal is a representation of the percentage growth, which would be 130%.


Since the function is written in terms of weeks, x will equal 4 to represent the amount of spores after 4 weeks. Plug the value into the function:


345(1.30)^4 = \boxed{985.35}


Rounded to the nearest ones value, there will be 985 mold spores after 4 weeks.
