Which equation has a solution of -2?

Mathematics
1 answer:
kykrilka [37]3 years ago
8 0

Solution:

I'm not sure if there is law for it or not, but you can replace each x to -2 if both sides are equal then the equation is true.

7x - 4 = 6x + 5\\7(-2) - 4 = 6(-2) + 5\\-14-4=-12+5\\-18\neq -7

A. is incorrect.

4x + 3 = 8x - 5\\4(-2) + 3 = 8(-2) - 5\\-8+3=-16-5\\-5\neq -21

B. is incorrect.

6x + 4 = 3x + 10\\6(-2) + 4 = 3(-2) + 10\\-12+4=-6+10\\-8\neq 4

C. is incorrect.

-5x - 3 = -7(x +1)\\-5(-2) - 3 = -7((-2) +1)\\10-3 =-7(-1)\\7=7

D. is correct.

Answer:

D. -5x-3=-7(x+1)

Find the remainder for the quotient using either substitution or synthetic division.
zaharov [31]

(x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15 as there is no remaider.

<h3>What is a factor of a polynomial?</h3>

We know that if x = a is one of the roots of a given polynomial x - a = 0 is a factor of the given polynomial.

To confirm if x - a = 0 is a factor of a polynomial we replace f(x) with f(a) and if the remainder is zero then it is confirmed that x - a = 0 is a factor.

Given a polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

If (x - 5) is it's factor then f(5) = 0.

∴ f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

f(5) = 5³ - 5² - 17(5) - 15.

f(5) = 125 - 25 - 85 - 15.

f(5) = 0.

So, the remainder is zero hence (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

4. If your company purchases an annuity that will pay $50,000/year for 10 years at a 11% discount rate, what is the value of the
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The value of the annuity is $326,852.3766.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the required formula to find the present value of annuity:

We can find the present value of annuity:

PV = P + P (\frac{1-(1+r)^{-(n-1)} }{r})

Here:

            P = $50,000

            n = represents the number of number of periods

            r = 0.11

PV = 50,000 + 50,5000 (\frac{1-(1+0.11)^{-(10-1)} }{0.11})

PV = $326,852.3766

The value of the annuity is $326,852.3766 i.e. PV = $326,852.3766.
