Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

If x + 1 is a factor, x = -1 has to be a root

(-1)³ + (-1)² - 4(-1) - 4

Remainder theorem again...

$p(x)=x^3+x^2-4x-4$

$p(-1)=(-1)^3+(-1)^2-4(-1)-4=0$

So Yes, $x+1$ is a factor.

Which two expressions are equivalent?

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

First option

Step-by-step explanation:

The result of first expression:

7(6+z) multiply 7 with inside the parenthesis

7(6+z) = 42 + 7z

the result of second expression:

since we need to do multiplying first,

7*6 = 42 and 7*z = 7z

then we add them

42 + 7z this is the same result we found for the first equation

PLS PLS HELP, I DONT WANT TO FAIL!!

Flura [38]

Answer:

2.0 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic functions:

$\begin{cases}y=-7x^2+26x+3\\y=-6x^2 +23x+5\end{cases}$

To find the time, in seconds, that the balloons collided at the highest point, substitute one equation into the other equation and rearrange to equal zero:

$\begin{aligned}-6x^2+23x+5 & = -7x^2+26x+3\\-6x^2+23x+5+7x^2 & = -7x^2+26x+3+7x^2\\x^2+23x+5 & = 26x+3\\x^2+23x+5-26x & = 26x+3-26x\\x^2-3x+5& = 3\\x^2-3x+5-3& = 3-3\\x^2-3x+2& = 0\end{aligned}$

Factor the quadratic:

$\begin{aligned}x^2-3x+2 & = 0\\x^2-2x-x+2 & = 0\\x(x-2)-1(x-2) & = 0\\(x-1)(x-2) & = 0\\\end{aligned}$

Apply the zero-product property to solve for x:

$\implies (x-1)=0 \implies x=1$

$\implies (x-2)=0 \implies x=2$

Therefore, the balloons collided at 1 second and 2 seconds.

To find at which time the highest point of collision occured, substitute both values of x into one of the functions:

$f(1)=-6(1)^2 +23(1)+5=22$

$f(2)=-6(2)^2 +23(2)+5=27$

Therefore, the time, in seconds, that the balloons collided at the highest point is 2.0 seconds.

What is the difference 7/78 - 3 1/4=

ZanzabumX [31]

here
7 7/8
= [ (8*7) + 7 ] / 8
= (56 + 7) / 8
=63 / 8

similarly,
3 1/4
=[ (4*3) + 1] / 4
= (12 + 1) / 4
= 13/4

----------------------------
now put the values
7 7/8 - 3 1/4
= 63/8 - 13/4
here, take LCM of 8 & 4 which is 8.
now,
[ (1*63) - (2 * 13) ] / 8
= (63 - 26) / 8
= 37/8
= 4 5/8........................[ here, divide 37 by 8 which gives reminder as 5 and divisible value as 4 ]
