Hello,

The divisors of 4/4 are 1 or -1

Answer Yes
omeli [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polynomial

f(x) = 4x³ - 2x² + 2x + 4

we are asked to use synthetic division to divide f(x) by (x - k) where k = -1. This is performed as follows:

-1   |   4    -2    2    4

    |          -4    6    -8

-----------------------------

       4     -6    8     -4

Given that k < 0 and the values in the  bottom row of the synthetic division alternate between non-negative and non-positive, then x = -1 is a lower bound for the real zeros of the function f(x).

A triangle has one angle that measures 24 degrees, one angle that measures 46 degrees, and one angle that measures 110 degrees.
ElenaW [278]
We can automatically rule out both Right and Equilateral Triangles, this is because there is no 90 degree angle (Needed for a right triangle) and all three angles are not equal (needed for an equilateral triangle).
Looking a little deeper, we know that an isosceles triangle has two congruent (or same) angles. Meaning we can rule this one out as well.
This leaves option A) Scalene Triangle
And to check, we think about a scalene triangle, and we know it's a triangle that has 3 unequal sides, meaning that this could qualify!

A boy is playing a ball in a garden surrounded by a wall 2.5 m high and kicks the ball vertically up from a height of 0.4 m with
kow [346]

Answer:

2.5 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of wall = 2.5 m

initial speed of ball = 14 m/s

height from which ball is kicked = 0.4 m

we calculate the speed of the ball at the height that matches the wall first

height that matches wall = 2.5 - 0.4 = 2.1 m

using  =  + 2as

where a = acceleration due to gravity = -9.81 m/s^2 (negative in upwards movement)

=  + 2(-9.81 x 2.1)

= 196 - 41.202

= 154.8

v =  = 12.44 m/s

this is the velocity of the ball at exactly the point where the wall ends.

At the maximum height, the speed of the ball becomes zero

therefore,

u = 12.44 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.81 m/s^2

t = ?

using V = U + at

0 = 12.44 - 9.81t

-12.44 = -9.81

t = -12.44/-9.81

t = 1.27 s

the maximum height the ball reaches will be gotten with

=  + 2as

a = -9.81 m/s^2

0 =  + 2(-9.81s)

0 = 196 - 19.62s

s = -196/-19.62 = 9.99 m. This the maximum height reached by the ball.

height from maximum height to height of ball = 9.99 - 2.5 = 7.49 m

we calculate for the time taken for the ball to travel down this height

a = 9.81 m/s^2 (positive in downwards movement)

u = 0

s = 7.49 m

using s = ut + a

7.49 = (0 x t) +  (9.81 x  )

7.49 = 0 + 4.9

 = 7.49/4.9 = 1.53

t =  = 1.23 sec

Total time spent above wall = 1.27 s + 1.23 s = 2.5 sec

astraxan [27]

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s pretty simple!

So first we set up the proportion, 6:10

We know that 3 is a common factor for 6 and 9, so we divide 6 by 2 and 10 by 2 and get the proportion 3:5, now we multiply both numbers by 3,

9:15!

lan ran 24 laps in a charity run and then walked 0.2 kilometer to the presentation table the total; distance lan traveled was 29
QveST [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.225km is equal to each laps

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Kristy total distance traveled = 29.6km

And Kristy ran 24 laps and later walk 0.2km. it simply implies that

Total distance traveled = distance covered running + distance covered walking

Since we know that

Total distance traveled = 29.6km

distance covered running = 24 laps

distance covered walking = 0.2km

Distance covered running in km = total distance traveled - distance covered walking

Distance covered running in km = 29.6km - 0.2km = 29.4km.

To now find the distance for each lap.

Since we have:

Distance covered running in km = 29.4km.

Distance covered running in lap = 24 laps

i.e

24 laps = 29.4km

1 lap = x

Use cross-multiple

24 laps * x = 29.4km × 1 lap

x = 29.4km / 24

x = 1.225km

Therefore

1.225km is equal to each laps.
