What is the value of a in the polynomial

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alexandra [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: a= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following expression:

(y-4)(y^2 +4y +16)

To find the value of the coefficient "a" you must use the distributive property to multiply the expression:

(y-4)(y^2 +4y +16)

until you transform it to the form:

y^3 +4y^2 +ay -4y^2 -ay-64

Then we have

(y-4)(y^2 +4y +16)\\\\(y^3 +4y^2 +16y -4y^2 -16y-64)\\\\

Therefore the value of a in the polynomial is 16

Answer:

(1, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the system of equations is the point of intersection of the two lines.  From inspection of the graph, the point of intersection is at (1, 5).

<u>Proof</u>

The solution to a system of equations is the point at which the two lines meet.  

⇒ g(x) = f(x)

⇒ 3x + 2 = |x - 4| + 2

⇒ 3x = |x - 4|

⇒ 3x = x - 4   and   3x = -(x - 4)

⇒ 3x = x - 4

⇒ 2x = -4

⇒ x = -2

Inputting x = -2 into the 2 equations:

⇒ g(-2) = 3 · -2 + 2 = -4

⇒ f(-2) = |-2 - 4| + 2 = 8

Therefore, as the y-values are different, x = -2 is NOT a solution

⇒ 3x = -(x - 4)

⇒ 3x = 4 - x

⇒ 4x = 4

⇒ x = 1

Inputting x = 1 into the 2 equations:

⇒ g(1) = 3 · 1 + 2 = 5

⇒ f(1) = |1 - 4| + 2 = 5

Therefore, as the y-values are the same, x = 1  IS a solution

and the solution is (1, 5)

How do you find the area of a triangle
natita [175]
Use the formula:

\frac{b\: \times \:h}{2}

B refers to the base and H refers to the height of the triangle.

As such, multiply both the base and height of the triangle and divide the answer by 2, to find the area of the triangle.
