Which of the following is a factor of the polynomial below? 3y^2x + 24xy - 9x

2 answers:

4 0

Note that x appears in all three terms of the polynomial but y does not and 3 will divide into 3 , 9 and 24 so the answer must be
3x

I got 3x.....because not all have a y in common

Given the position of the particle, what the position(s) of the particle when it’s at rest

choli [55]

The position function of a particle is given by:

$X\mleft(t\mright)=\frac{2}{3}t^3-\frac{9}{2}t^2-18t$

The velocity function is the derivative of the position:

$\begin{gathered} V(t)=\frac{2}{3}(3t^2)-\frac{9}{2}(2t)-18 \\ \text{Simplifying:} \\ V(t)=2t^2-9t-18 \end{gathered}$

The particle will be at rest when the velocity is 0, thus we solve the equation:

$2t^2-9t-18=0$

The coefficients of this equation are: a = 2, b = -9, c = -18

Solve by using the formula:

$t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Substituting:

$\begin{gathered} t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81-4(2)(-18)}}{2(2)} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81+144}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{225}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm15}{4} \end{gathered}$

We have two possible answers:
