Question:</h2>
Find k if (x+1) is a factor of 2x³ + kx² + 1
<h2>
Answer:</h2>
k = 1
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
The factor of a polynomial F(x) is another polynomial that divides evenly into F(x). For example, x + 3 is a factor of the polynomial x² - 9.
<em>This is because;</em>
i. x² - 9 can be written as (x - 3)(x + 3) which shows that both (x - 3) and (x + 3) are factors.
ii. If x = -3 is substituted into the polynomial x² - 9, the result gives zero. i.e
=> (-3)² - 9
=> (9) - 9 = 0
Therefore, if (x + a) is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = -a into the polynomial should result to zero. This also means that, if x - a is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = a into the polynomial should give zero.
<em><u>From the question</u></em>
Given polynomial: 2x³ + kx² + 1
Given factor: x + 1.
Since x + 1 is a factor of the polynomial, substituting x = -1 into the polynomial should give zero and from there we can calculate the value of k. i.e
2(-1)³ + k(-1)² + 1 = 0
2(-1) + k(1) + 1 = 0
-2 + k + 1 = 0
k - 1 = 0
k = 1
Therefore the value of k is 1.
y=kx+b
for (7,-8): -8=7k+b. (function 1)
for (-4,6): 6=-4k+b (function 2)
Use function 2 - function 1
we get: 14=-11k
k=-14/11------>slope is -14/11
Now we know that first two options are wrong since they have the wrong slope for the function.
Plus -14/11 back to function 1/ or 2. Both are correct and can give you the answer. In this case I would plug it back to function 2.
6=14*4/11+b
b=66/11-56/11
b=10/11
We get y=-14/11x+10/11
subtract both side by 6.
y-6=-14/11x+10/11-66/11
y-6=-14/11x-56/11
y-6=-14/11(x+4)
So C is correct
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
80 minutes.......8 minutes played commercials....that means (80 - 8) = 72 minutes played music
so the ratio of music to commercials is : 72/8 which reduces to 9/1...so the ratio is 9:1 <=== ur answer
** pay attention to the wording, because if it would have asked for the ratio of commercials to music, it would have been 8/72....ratio would be 1:9
7 x - 5 = 8
7 x = 8 + 5
7 x = 13
x = 13/7
7 ( 13/7) - 5 = 8
91/7 - 35/7 = 56/7
56/7 = 56/7 = 8
