Answer:
f(x) = -5x
Step-by-step explanation:
Just add a - sign to reflect it over the x axis
Answer:
- 1 = pentagon
- 2 = diamond
- 3 = square
- 5 = circle
- 6 = rectangle
- 7 = oval
- 8 = triangle
- 9 = hexagon
- 10 = trapezoid
Step-by-step explanation:
Each half of a hanger divides the total weight in half. The right-most vertical has a total weight of 80/16 = 5. It consists of a square and a diamond, and we know the square is 1 more than the diamond. That means 2 diamonds weigh 5 -1 = 4. A diamond weighs 2, and a square weighs 3. The other half of that balance is a circle, which weighs 5.
The total of a square and oval is 10, so the oval is 10 -3 = 7. The two trapezoids weigh 20, so each is 10.
The second vertical from the left is a circle and diamond which will weigh 5+2 = 7. That makes the sum of a pentagon and rectangle also be 7. The 7+7 = 14 below the square on the left branch makes the total of that branch be 14+3 = 17, which is also the sum of the triangle and hexagon.
The weight below the rectangle at top left is 17+17 = 34, and the weight of that entire branch is 40. Thus the rectangle is 40-34 = 6, which makes the pentagon 7-6 = 1.
We require the sum of the triangle and hexagon be 17, with the triangle being the smaller value, and both being 9 or less (the trapezoid is the only figure weighing more than 9). Hence the triangle is 8 and the hexagon is 9.
The weights are summarized in the answer section, above.

Answer:
-2x +4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write the polynomial p(x) in terms of the factors (x+2) and (x-3) as ...
p(x) = (x+2)(x-3)q(x) +ax +b
Where ax+b is the remainder from division by x^2 -x -6 = (x+2)(x-3). The values of 'a' and 'b' can be found from ...
p(-2) = 8 = -2a +b
p(3) = -2 = 3a +b
Subtracting the first equation from the second gives ...
(3a +b) -(-2a +b) = (-2) -(8)
5a = -10
a = -2
Then the first equation tells us ...
8 = -2(-2) +b
4 = b
So, the remainder from division by (x^2 -x -6) is (-2x +4).
