Consider the Polynomial P(x)=x^3-5x^2-x+5. is (x-5) a factor?

Mathematics

Alborosie3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Option B, Yes, the remainder is 0, so x-5 is a factor of P(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Factor</u>

p(x) = x^3 - 5x^2 - x + 5

<em>p(x) = (x - 5)(x + 1)(x - 1)</em>

<em />

<em>Yes, the remainder is 0 so, x-5 is a factor of p(x)</em>

<em />

Answer:  Option B, Yes, the remainder is 0, so x-5 is a factor of P(x)

2. Use the following picture for this question:
Art [367]

Answer:

a.  24\sqrt{3}  and 41.6

b.  52.1

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Considering the left side triangle the blue dotted side is the side "opposite" to the angle given and the side 24 is the side that is "adjacent" to the angle given. The trigonometric ratio tan relates opposite to adjacent. Also, let the blue dotted side be y.

<u>Note:</u> the exact value of tan 60 is \sqrt{3}

Thus, we can write Tan(60)=\frac{y}{24}\\y=24*Tan(60)\\y=24*\sqrt{3} \\y=24\sqrt{3}

Approximate value (rounded to nearest tenth):  24\sqrt{3} =41.6

b.

Considering the triangle to the right, the side "opposite" to the angle given (53 degrees) is 41.6 (just found in part (a)) and the side "hypotenuse" (side opposite to 90 degree angle) is x. The trigonometric ratio sine relates opposite and hypotenuse.

Thus we can write and solve:

Sin(53)=\frac{41.6}{x}\\x=\frac{41.6}{Sin(53)}=52.1

This time you have to plug in the 62.10 to the P and solve for x.

 I know that the new equation is now<span>62.10=(20+0.5x)+0.15(20+0.5x)

</span>okay so, x equal 68, the number of pages .

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC, find the values of x and y.
Mumz [18]

The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal, it is obtained by Pythagoras theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given are,

           From ΔABC,

                    AB= 6

                    BC= 10

                    AC = x

           From ΔDEC,

                    CD= 28

                    DE= 21

                    CE = y

Step:1

        Pythagoras theorem from  ΔABC,

                    BC^{2}=AB^{2} + AC^{2}...............(1)

       Substitute the values,

                   10^{2} = 6^{2} + AC^{2}

                  100 = 36 + AC^{2}

                   AC^{2} = 100 - 36

                           = 64

                    AC = \sqrt{64}

                    AC = 8

                  AC = x = 8

Step:2

        Pythagoras theorem for ΔDEC,

               CE^{2} = CD^{2}  + DE^{2}................(2)

       From the values,

              CE^{2} = 28^{2} + 21^{2}

             CE^{2} = 784 + 441

                     = 1225

              CE = \sqrt{1225}

              CE = 35

             CE = y = 35

Result:

         The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal.
