Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion a mixed number 3 8

8

to a improper fraction: 3 8/8 = 3 8

8

= 3 · 8 + 8

8

= 24 + 8

8

= 32

8

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 3 by the denominator 8. Whole number 3 equally 3 * 8

8

= 24

8

b) Add the answer from previous step 24 to the numerator 8. New numerator is 24 + 8 = 32

c) Write previous answer (new numerator 32) over the denominator 8.

Three and eight eighths is thirty-two eighths

Divide: 32

8

: 8

6

= 32

8

· 6

8

= 32 · 6

8 · 8

= 192

64

= 64 · 3

64 · 1

= 3

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 32

8

is 8

32

) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step cancelling by a common factor of 64 gives 3

1

.

In words - thirty-two eighths divided by eight sixths = three.

Answer:

2 17/32

Step-by-step explanation:

converting mixed numbers to fractions, reducing where possible, our initial equation becomes,

27/8 ÷ 4/3

Applying the fractions formula for division,

27/8 x 4 = 81/32

Simplifying 81/32, the answer is

= 2 17/32

mash [69]

Answer:

x-int:(-2,0)(-4,0) . y-int:(0,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x2+6x+8 and y = (x+2)(x+4)

x-int:

x+2=0

x= -2

(-2,0)

x-int:

x+4=0

x=-4

(-4,0)

y-int: plug 0 for x

y=(0+2)(0+4)

y=8

(0,8)

First question:

I urge you to perform the division using the synthetic division method:

      ________________
-4  /   1   3   -6   -6   8
             -4    4     8  -8
       -----------------------
         1   -1   -2    2    0

Note that there is no remainder.  When this is the case, the divisor (here, that's -4) is a root of the given polynomial, and the value of that polynomial, g(-4), is 0.

If the remainder were not 0, then the remainder represents the value of the polynomial for that particular divisor.  For example, if x = -3, the remainder is -28.  We'd write that as g(-3) = -28.

But here, g(-4) = 0.
