Answer:

x² + 2x + [3\x - 1]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the divisor is in the form of <em>x - c</em>, use what is called <em>Synthetic Division</em>. Remember, in this formula, -c gives you the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so do not forget it. Anyway, here is how it is done:

1| 1 1 -2 3

↓ 1 2 0

------------------

1 2 0 3 → x² + 2x + [3\x - 1]

You start by placing the <em>c</em> in the top left corner, then list all the coefficients of your dividend [x² + 5x - 36]. You bring down the original term closest to <em>c</em> then begin your multiplication. Now depending on what symbol your result is tells you whether the next step is to subtract or add, then you continue this process starting with multiplication all the way up until you reach the end. Now, when the last term is 0, that means you have no remainder, which in this case is a 3, so what you is set the divisor underneath the remainder of 3. Finally, your quotient is one degree less than your dividend, so that 1 in your quotient can be an x², 2 becomes <em>2x</em><em>,</em><em> </em>and the remainder of 3 is set over the divisor, giving you the other factor of <em>x² + 2x + [3\x - 1]</em>.

Y=-3x^2-6x+24
Lera25 [3.4K]
The x-intercept is the point at which the function intersects the x-axis.
For any point on the x-axis, y = 0. Thus we can plug in 0 for y and solve for x.

y=-3x^2-6x+24 \\ 0=-3x^2-6x+24

Let's split the middle on this quadratic.
To do this we need to find two numbers that add to equal -6 and multiply to equal -72. (-3 times 24)
Consider ways to multiply to get 72.
72 = 36 ×2...that's not going to work.
72 = 24 × 3
72 = 18 × 4
72 = 12 × 6...and 12 minus 6 is 6!
Let's add our signs; our numbers are -12 and 6.
Now, split the middle and factor.

0=-3x^2-12x+6x+24\\0=-3x(x+4)+6(x+4)\\0=(-3x+6)(x+4)

Now you should know that anything multiplied by zero is zero.
So any value that makes one of those factors equal zero is an x-intercept.
Solve each of these equations.

-3x+6 = 0
-3x = -6
x = 2

x+4 = 0
x = -4

Oh, and since all parabolas (graphs of quadratics) are symmetrical, our axis of symmetry will be the average between the two, which is x=-1.

Now for our y-intercepts. For any points on the y-axis, x=0, so if we plug in 0 for x and solve for y we'll get our y-intercept.

y = -3×0² - 6×0 + 24
y = 0 - 0 + 24
y = 24

What about our vertex? Well, we know it's going to line up with the axis of symmetry, so let's just plug in -1 for x.

y = -3×-1² - 6×-1 + 24
y = -3×1 -6×-1 + 24
y = -3 + 6 + 24
y = 27

Thus the vertex is (-1, 27)

The y value is not going to exceed 27, as this is a decreasing quadratic, (we already know y=24 is a possibilty) and this equation goes downwards infinitely, so our range is (-∞, 27)

As for x, well, it's sort of the input for our equation, meaning it can be whatever we want it to be. Thus the domain is (-∞, ∞)

The system of equations: 5x-4y=-3
Sophie [7]

Answer:

3)5x-4y=-3

6x+4y=14

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is given

5x-4y=-3

3x+2y=7

Multiplying both sides of the lower equation by 2, we get

6x + 4y = 14

That means your answer 3)

What is the median of the data set? <br> {10, 15, 14, 14, 10, 10, 8, 18, 11, 12, 17, 16}
Alexus [3.1K]
The median of a data set is the 'middle number'. You can find the median by listing the given numbers from least to greatest (left to right) and finding the middle number.

8, 10, 10, 10, 11, 12, 14, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18

Cross one out on each side before getting to your last number that should be in the middle. 

The middle numbers are: 12 and 14. If it was only one number, we could already have the answer, but since it is two numbers in the middle, we need to add them up and divide by 2. 

12 + 14 = 26
26 ÷ 2 = 13

So, the median of the data set is: 13.
