What is the remainder when a^3 - 4 is divided by a+2? a)0 b)-6 c)-2 d)-12

Answer:

<em>The remainder is -12. Choice d)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Remainder Theorem</u>

The polynomial remainder theorem states that the remainder of the division of a polynomial f(x) by (x-r) is equal to f(r).

We have the polynomial

P(a)= a^3 - 4

To evaluate the remainder when P is divided by a+2, we only have to find P(-2):

P(-2)= (-2)^3 - 4

P(-2)= -8 - 4=-12

The remainder is -12. Choice d)

PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!
N76 [4]

Answer:

(B) Time (min) 2 , 3 , 7 , 9

Temperature (°C) 60.6 , 64.3 , 79.1 , 86.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is found by using the formula for slope:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

For option A, this gives us

m =(64.4-61.0)/(3-2) = 3.4/1 = 3.4

This is not more than relationship A.

For option B, we have

(64.3-60.6)/(3-2) = 3.7/1 = 3.7

This is more than relationship A.

For option C, we have

(65.3-61.8)/(3-2) = 3.5/1 = 3.5

This is not more than relationship A.

For option D, we have

(64.6-61.0)/(3-2) = 3.6/1 = 3.6

This is not more than relationship A.

PLEASE HURRY <br> Which equation of a line passes through the points (3,<br> -1) and (6, 1)?
LenKa [72]

To write the equation of line in y = mx + b form, we need

to identify the slope of the line and the y-intercept.

I would start by setting up a coordinate

system and plotting both points.

I have shown this below.

Let's start with our first point, (3, -1) which we call point A.

Now our second point, (6, 1) which we call point B.

To get from point A to point B, we rise 2 units and run 3 units.

So we know that our slope is 2/3.

However, we need the y-intercept.

Remember, this is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Since point B is farther from y-axis,

we need to go in the other direction.

So starting at point A, we go down 2 and to the left 3.

Remember, -2/-3 is 2/3 since a negative/negative = positive.

Now plot point C.

Notice that point C is on the y-axis.

It has the coordinates (0,-3).

Now we know our slope and y-intercept.

So our equation reads 2/3x - 3.

The slope is positive since the line is going up.
