Answer:

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Because x-1 is factor of f(x)

for x1=1, f(1)=0, then

f(1)=5*1^3+a*1^2-4*1-2=0

5*1+a*1-4-2=0

5+a-6=0

a-1=0

a=1

Which of the following is the equation of the function below?
puteri [66]

Answer:

The equation of the graph below is y = 0.5 csc[0.5(x + π/2)] - 1 ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the trigonometry transformation

- If the equation is y = A csc(B(x + C)) + D

# Amplitude is A

- The Amplitude is the height from the center line to the peak .

  Or we can measure the height from highest to lowest points and

  divide that by 2

# period is 2π/B

- The Period goes from one peak to the next

# phase shift is C (positive is to the left)

- The Phase Shift is how far the function is shifted horizontally

  from the usual position.

# vertical shift is D

- The Vertical Shift is how far the function is shifted vertically from

 the usual position.

- If y = csc(x)

∴ A = 1 , B = 1 , C = 0 , D = 0

- That means the amplitude is 1, the period is 2π, no phase shift

 or vertical shift

* Now lets solve the problem

- From the graph

# The amplitude = (-0.5 - -1.5)/2 = 0.5

∴ A = 0.5

# The period is from 2.5π to -1.5π

∴ The period is 4π

∵ The period = 2π/B

∴ 4π = 2π/B ⇒ by cross multiplication

∴ B = 2π/4π = 1/2 = 0.5

* There is only one answer has A = 0.5 and B = 0.5

∴ y = 0.5 csc[0.5(x + π/2)] - 1

* The equation of the graph below is 0.5 csc[0.5(x + π/2)] - 1

* For more understand look to the color graph

- The blue graph is y = csc(x)

- The green graph is y = 0.5 csc[0.5(x + π/2)] - 1

Given: F(x) = x + 2 and G(x) = 3x + 5<br><br> (F*G) (x) =
vovangra [49]

Answer:

\boxed{(f \times g)(x) = 3 {x}^{2}  + 11x + 10}

Given:

f(x) =  x + 2 \\  \\ g(x) =  3x + 5

To Find:

(f \times g)(x) = f(x) \times g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

=  > f(x) \times g(x) = (x + 2)( 3x + 5) \\  \\  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   =x( 3x + 5) + 2(3x + 5)  \\  \\  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   =3 {x}^{2}  + 5x + 6x + 10\\  \\  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   =3 {x}^{2}  + 11x + 10

Aniii geometry . solve the equation 4x-6=34
prohojiy [21]
(1) You can see that the 6 is being added to both sides.

You are trying to make both sides equal by adding 6, so it would be the Addition Property of Equality. 

(2) 4 is being divided into both sides. 

It would be the Division Property of Inequality. (you are dividing by 4 to make both sides equal)

"B" is the answer.

I hope this helps!
