Answer:

25 nautical miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the rate. We can do so using the formula, distance = rate * time

d= rt

We know the distance and the time, so we need to solve for the rate

d/t = rate

d= 150 nautical miles

t = 6 hours

d/t = 150 nautical miles /6 hours

rate = 25 nautical miles per hour

So in 1 hour we can go 25 nautical miles

Answer:

25 nautical miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

d = 150 nautical miles
t = 6 hours
r = ???

Equation

d = r * t

Solution

150 nautical miles = r * 6 hours Divide by 6 hours
150 nautical miles/6 hours = r * 6 hours / 6 hours
25 nautical miles / hour = r

Find the remainder when f(x)=x3−4x2−6x−3 f ( x ) = x 3 − 4 x 2 − 6 x − 3 is divided by x+1

loris [4]

Answer:

The remainder is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Polynomial Remainder Theorem, if we divide a polynomial P(x) by a binomial (x - a), then the remainder of the operation will be given by P(a).

Our polynomial is:

$P(x) = x^3-4x^2-6x-3$

And we want to find the remainder when it's divided by the binomial:

$x+1$

We can rewrite our divisor as (x - (-1)). Hence, a = -1.

Then by the PRT, the remainder will be:

$\displaystyle\begin{aligned} R &= P(-1)\\ &=(-1)^3-4(-1)^2-6(-1)-3 \\ &= (-1)-4(1)+(6)-3 \\ &= -2 \end{aligned}$

The remainder is -2.

Plug in 4 for x

9(4) + 7 = 40

36 + 7 = 40

43 ≠ 40

No, 4 is not a solution
