Answer:

  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attachment for the polynomial long division. The constant in the quotient is -1.

_____

Here, there is a remainder of -x. If there were no remainder the constant in the quotient is the ratio of the constant in the dividend to the constant in the divisor: -2/2 = -1.

That could be a first guess in a "guess and check" solution approach.

<em>Guess</em>: first term of binomial quotient is (2x^3)/x^2 = 2x; last term of binomial quotient is -2/2 = -1. So, the quotient is guessed to be (2x -1).

<em>Check</em>: (2x -1)(x^2 -x +2) = 2x^3 -3x^2 +5x -2

Subtracting this from the actual dividend gives a remainder of -x. This has a lower degree than the divisor, so no further adjustment of the quotient is required.

Frank devised a formula for his catering business that calculates the number of meatballs he needs to prepare. The formula is m=
NeX [460]
So if m=4a+2c is your equation then all you have to do is plug in the numbers.

So you then get m=4(25)+2(7), for 25 adults and 7 children.

Then you solve.  m=100+2(7)
                           m=100+14
                            m=114
So Frank will need 114 Meatballs for the party of 25 adults and 7 children
 Hope this helps! And if you need anything else just ask :)

This jar has 1 red, 74 yellow, and 25 green gumballs. What are the chances of picking a green gumball? the red one? ​
kari74 [83]

Answer: green = 25/100, red = 1/100

Step-by-step explanation: add ALL of the gumballs, there's your denominator, now you have 0/100 (1+74+25), count the amount of marbles you want to get the probability of, lets say green, there's your numerator (25) = 25/100

I already finished it but how do you know if it’s decreasing or increasing?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

If the slope is positive it is increasing if the slope is negative it is decreasing :)

Example:

Y=mX+b

If m is positive it is a positive slope

I don't get it and I have tried it multiple ways

Answer:

  9350 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways you can go at this. Here are 3 of them:

  1. along an extension of the lower right vertical edge, divide the figure into a rectangle and a right triangle.
  2. between the upper left corner and the inside corner at lower right draw a diagonal line to divide the figure into a trapezoid and a triangle.
  3. subtract the area of the trapezoid at the right from the area of the bounding rectangle

__

The relevant formulas for area are ...

  rectangle: A = LW . . . . . . . . . . . length times width

  trapezoid: A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h . . . b1, b2 are the bases, h is the height

  triangle: A = (1/2)bh . . . . . . . . . . . b is the base, h is the height

__

Here's what those computations look like:

1. rectangle: 60m wide by 80 m high = 4800 m².

  right triangle: base 190-60 = 130 m; height = 80-10 = 70 m.

     area = (1/2)(130 m)(70 m) = 4550 m²

  figure area = 4800 m² +4550 m² = 9350 m² . . . . area of figure

__

2. The trapezoid has bases of 80 m and 10 m, and a height of 60 m. Its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(80 m +10 m)(60 m) = 2700 m²

The triangle has a base of 190 m and a height of 80-10 = 70 m. Its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(190 m)(70 m) = 6650 m²

Then the total area is 2700 m² +6650 m² = 9350 m² . . . total area

__

3. The bounding rectangle is 190 m by 80 m, so its area is ...

  A = LW = (190 m)(80 m) = 15200 m²

The (negative) trapezoid at right has bases of 10 m and 80 m, and a width of 190-60 = 130 m. Its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(10 m +80 m)(130 m) = 5850 m²

The area of the figure is the difference between these:

  figure area = 15200 m² -5850 m² = 9350 m² . . . figure area
