Step-by-step explanation:

Here, f(x) is the given polynomial.

By remainder Theorem,

When divided by (3x-1),

f(1/3) = -3........(1)

When divided by (x+1),

f(-1) = -7.........(2)

<em>Another</em><em> </em><em>polynomial</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>x</em><em>²</em><em>+</em><em>2</em><em>x</em><em>-</em><em>1</em>

Solving,

3x²+2x-1

= 3x²+3x-x-1

=3x(x+1)-(x+1)

=(3x-1)(x+1)

So

f(x) = (3x-1)(x+1)Qx + (ax+b)

For f(-1),

-7 = -a+b

b= a-7

For f(1/3),

-3 = a/3+b

or, -3 = a/3+a-7

or, 4×3 = 4a

or a = 3

Also, b = 3-7 =-4

Hence, remainder is (3x-4)

Toms banks baleances at the end of the months 1,2,3 are 1600 ,1664,1730.56 what will toms balance be at the end of month 5
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Tom's balance at the end of month 5 = 1,871.77

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 1600

ar = 1664

ar² = 1730.56

common ratio, r = ar/a

= 1664/1600

= 1.04

r = 1.04

what will toms balance be at the end of month 5

Month 5 = ar⁴

= 1600 * 1.04⁴

= 1600 * 1.16985856

= 1,871.773696

Approximately 1,871.77

Tom's balance at the end of month 5 = 1,871.77
