The product is less than either of the factors. Multiplying a number < 1 with 2/3 another number < 1, will give a fraction of a fraction, and part of a fraction is an even smaller fraction. Another way of looking at it: Fractions less than one have numerators smaller than their denominators. When multiplying fractions, you multiply across, so multiplying two fractions that are both less than one will always give a numerator much smaller than the denominator, and a larger denominator makes for a smaller number. I hope this helps, but if you have questions, ask.
Answer:
<h3>Daniel is correct</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the polynomial P(x) = x^2-3x-10
To check that the remainder is zero if divided by x - 5, we will first have to equate x - 5 to zero and get x;
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
Then find P(5)
P(5) = 5^2 - 3(5) - 10
P(5) = 25 - 15 - 10
P(5) = 25-25
P(5) = 0
<em>This shows that x - 5 is a factor of the polynomial since P(5) gave us zero according to the factor theorem</em>
They only have 1 common point
The y-intercept is where it crosses the vertical axis, so -4.
The x-intercept is where it crosses the horizontal axis, so 4
