Question:</h2>
Find k if (x+1) is a factor of 2x³ + kx² + 1
<h2>
Answer:</h2>
k = 1
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
The factor of a polynomial F(x) is another polynomial that divides evenly into F(x). For example, x + 3 is a factor of the polynomial x² - 9.
<em>This is because;</em>
i. x² - 9 can be written as (x - 3)(x + 3) which shows that both (x - 3) and (x + 3) are factors.
ii. If x = -3 is substituted into the polynomial x² - 9, the result gives zero. i.e
=> (-3)² - 9
=> (9) - 9 = 0
Therefore, if (x + a) is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = -a into the polynomial should result to zero. This also means that, if x - a is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = a into the polynomial should give zero.
<em><u>From the question</u></em>
Given polynomial: 2x³ + kx² + 1
Given factor: x + 1.
Since x + 1 is a factor of the polynomial, substituting x = -1 into the polynomial should give zero and from there we can calculate the value of k. i.e
2(-1)³ + k(-1)² + 1 = 0
2(-1) + k(1) + 1 = 0
-2 + k + 1 = 0
k - 1 = 0
k = 1
Therefore the value of k is 1.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure out if (1,2) is a solution to the system, we can plug the values in and see if it is true.
3x-2y=-1
3(1)-2(2)=-1
3-4=-1
-1=-1
It is true for this equation. Now let's check the next one.
y=-x+3
2=-(1)+3
2=2
Since both equations are true when we plug the values in, (1,2) is a solution to the system.

Answer "A"
Dodecahedron
A- the length of the side of a square
P = 16
P = 4a → 4a = 16 |:4 → a = 4
The diagonal of the square: d = a√2
therefore d = 4√2
