Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
This is a puzzling one! The answer is indeed -3/4 but I was unable to prove it using mathematics appropriate to the "middle school" level. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
(To prove it I generated the first few terms of its Laurent series, a Calculus topic. The first few terms are -(3/4) + (41/64x) + and as x approaches minus infinity the term with "x" in the denominator goes to zero, leaving the constant value -3/4 as the answer. )
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
3(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
3×4=12 and 3 also goes into 3x
The degree of the polynomial is 5.
Answer:
About 0.559 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The height equation is:
Where 
is the initial height of the book, which is 5, so we can write:
Now, we want time it took for the book to reach ground (h = 0)
So, we substitute h = 0 and solve for t:
It took about 0.559 seconds for the book to reach the ground
