Find the values of k so that each remainder is three. <br> 10. (x^2+ 5x + 7) = (x + k)
Goryan [66]

Answer:

k=1\text{ or } k=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Polynomial Remainder Theorem. It states that if we divide a polynomial P(x) by a <em>binomial</em> in the form (x - a), then our remainder will be P(a).

We are dividing:

(x^2+5x+7)\div(x+k)

So, a polynomial by a binomial factor.

Our factor is (x + k) or (x - (-k)). Using the form (x - a), our a = -k.

We want our remainder to be 3. So, P(a)=P(-k)=3.

Therefore:

(-k)^2+5(-k)+7=3

Simplify:

k^2-5k+7=3

Solve for <em>k</em>. Subtract 3 from both sides:

k^2-5k+4=0

Factor:

(k-1)(k-4)=0

Zero Product Property:

k-1=0\text{ or } k-4=0

Solve:

k=1\text{ or } k=4

So, either of the two expressions:

(x^2+5x+7)\div(x+1)\text{ or } (x^2+5x+7)\div(x+4)

Will yield 3 as the remainder.

Pierre throws a snowball up in the
erastovalidia [21]

Using the given function, it is found that the snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.

<h3>What is the function for the ball's height?</h3>

The height when x feet are traveled is given by:

h(x) = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.

When the height is of 20 meters, we have that h(x) = 20, hence:

20 = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.

0.5x² - 6x + 16 = 0

x² - 12x + 32 = 0

(x - 8)(x - 4) = 0

For the first time: x - 4 = 0 -> x = 4.

The snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.

Please help me asap<br><br><br> ty :)
Art [367]

Answer:

y = 5x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope so y = 5x+9 is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 5

The new line will have a slope of 5

y = 5x+b

We know a point on the line (-2,-3)

Substitute this point into the equation

-3 = 5(-2)+b

-3 = -10+b

-3+10 = b

7 = b

y = 5x+7
