Answer: x = {-1, -3, 2}
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 = 0
Use the rational root theorem to find the possible roots: ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6
Use Long division, Synthetic division, or plug them into the equation to see which root(s) work <em>(result in a remainder of zero)</em>.
I will use Synthetic division. Let's try x = 1
1 | 1 2 -5 -6
|<u> ↓ 1 3 -2 </u>
1 3 -2 -8 ← remainder ≠ 0 so x = 1 is NOT a root
Let's try x = -1
- 1 | 1 2 -5 -6
|<u> ↓ -1 -1 6 </u>
1 1 -6 0 ← remainder = 0 so x = -1 is a root!
The coefficients of the reduced polynomial are: 1, 1, -6 --> x² + x - 6
Factor: x² + x - 6
(x + 3)(x - 2)
Set those factors equal to zero to solve for x:
x + 3 = 0 --> x = -3
x - 2 = 0 --> x = 2
Using Synthetic Division and Factoring the reduced polynomial, we found
x = -1, -3, and 2
We know, widest angle is always opposite to the largest side of the triangle, as largest side is 50 here (which is backward to house) so largest angle would be opposite to it. So, that corner will be touched by Fence A & B
"Proportionality Theorem" compares the sides of the same triangle
Here, According to that theorem,
ST / RS = UT / PU
If FG is an altitude, then <DFG is an right triangle.
In short, Your Answer would be Option B
For last question here, remember, longest side must be greater than either side, and must be smaller than sum of those smaller sides.
Answer:
$14
Step-by-step explanation:
$20 minus the $6 she came back with equals $14, which is what she spent.
(20-6=14)
