If 2x3 – 4x2 + kx + 10 is divided by (x + 2), the remainder is 4. Find the value of k using remainder theorem. Please help :)

The polynomial remainder theorem states that the remainder of the division of a polynomial $P(x)$ by $x-a$ is equal to $P(a)$ .

Therefore

$P(-2)=4\\2\cdot(-2)^3 - 4\cdot(-2)^2 + k\cdot(-2) + 10=4\\-16-16-2k=-6\\-2k=26\\k=-13$

The angles of a rectangle are equal.<br> always<br> sometimes<br> never

worty [1.4K]

Answer: A rectangles angles are always equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose you have a rectangle, four sides, two pairs of parallel lines. in order to be a rectangle, the quadrilateral has to have equal angles, similar to a square, if they didn't, they could be a trapezoid, which is not a rectangle, because it only has one pair of parallel lines.

Hope this helps!

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

140 individuals were surveyed

42 people are planning on going to the mountains

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is missing the information regarding the percentage of people who said that they were going to each of the possible destinations. After a quick google search I've found that, in the original question, 32% of individuals were going to the beach, 15% to the desert, 23% to major cities, and 30% to the mountains.

If 21 people said they were going to the desert, and that corresponds to 15% of the total number of people surveyed, the number of people surveyed is:

$21=n*0.15\\n=140\ individuals$

140 individuals were surveyed

Since 30% responded "the mountains", the number of people planning on going to the mountains is:

$m = 140*0.30\\m=42\ people$

42 people are planning on going to the mountains
