Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

10 hours           x hours

-------------- = -------------

15 logs            9 logs

Using cross products

90 = 15x

Divide by 15

90/15 = 15x/15

6 = x

6 hours

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Jovie has maintained the fire burning with 15 logs for 10 hours.

● 15 => 10

Let's find how many hours do 9 logs keep the fire burning.

Let x be that time

● 9 => x

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● 15 => 10

● 9 => x

● 15 * x = 9×10

● 15x = 90

● x = 90/15

● x = 6

So the time that the fire will keep burning is 6 hours.

Factorize 2x^4-7x^3-13x^2+63x-45 using factor theorem.
zheka24 [161]
Find the possible rational roots and use synthetic division to find the first zero.
I chose x=1 (which represents the factor "x-1")

1║2  -7  -13    63  -45
  ║     2    -5  -18    45
    2  -5  -18    45    0
(x-1) is a factor, (2x³ - 5x² - 18x + 45) is the other factor.

Use synthetic division on the decomposed polynomial to find the next zero.
I chose x = 3 (which represents the factor "x-3")

3║2  -5  -18    45 
  ║     6     3   -45   
    2   1  -15     0   

Using synthetic division, we discovered that (x-1), (x-3), & (2x² + x -15) are factors.  Take the new decomposed polynomial (2x² + x -15) and find the last two factors using any method.

Final Answer: (x-1)(x-3)(x+3)(2x-5)
