Answer: Second option is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

$f(x)=3x^4+2x^3-x^2+2x-19$

And $g(x)=x+2$

To find the remainder, we use the Remainder Theorem, which states that when f(x) is divided by (x-c) then the f(c) is the required remainder.

So,

Here, we have,

$x+2=0\\\\x=-2$

So, we will find f(-2) which will give us the required remainder,

$f(-2)=3(-2)^4+2(-2)^3-(-2)^2+2(-2)-19\\\\f(-2)=(3\times 16)-(2\times 8)- 4-4-19\\\\f(-2)=48-16-36-4-19\\\\f(-2)=5$

Hence, Second option is correct.

Answer:

V = 1206.3 $ft^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape is made up of a cylinder on the bottom and a cone on the top. We'll find the volumes of these shapes separately and then add them together.

Volume of a cylinder = area (of the base) x height

Substitute in the formula for the area of a circle.

V(cylinder) = $\pi$ $r^{2}$ x h

Substitute in the values for the radius (8) and height (4)

V(cylinder) = $\pi$ x $8^{2}$ x 4

Evaluate using a calculator

V(cylinder) = 804.2477

To the nearest tenth, V(cylinder) = 804.2

Volume of a cone = $\frac{\pi r^{2}h }{3}$ . This is the area of the circular part of the cone ( $\pi r^{2}$ ), multiplied by the height from the point to the base, all divided by 3.
