18x + 48y = 6, where x = 3, y = –1

Solution:

Given numbers are 48 and 18.

Write it using linear combination, a = bq + r, where 0 ≤ r < b

   48 = 18 × 2 + 12

⇒ 18 = 12 × 1 + 6 (write 18 using the previous remainder 12)

⇒ 12 = 6 × 2 + 0 (write 12 using the previous remainder 6)

Remainder is zero. So, the process stops.

∴ HCF(18, 48) = 6

Now, Express 6 using 18 and 48.

6 = 18 – 12 × 1

6 = 18 – (48 – 18 × 2)

6 = 18 – 48 + 18 × 2

6 = 18 × 3 – 48 × 1

6 = 18 × 3 + 48 × (–1)

6 = 18x + 48y

18x + 48y = 6, where x = 3, y = –1

Hence 18x + 48y = 6 as the linear combination.

Answer:

Final result :

 x + 2

 —————

 x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   7 • 3 = 21  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  21  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -10 .

     -21    +    -1    =    -22  

     -7    +    -3    =    -10    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -7  and  -3  

                    7x2 - 7x - 3x - 3

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   7x • (x-1)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   3 • (x-1)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (7x-3)  •  (x-1)

            Which is the desired factorization

Answer:

remainder = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Using synthetic division with divisor (x - 2) , that is h = 2

There is no x³ term so include zero as its coefficient in the table

2 | 3   0   - 3   2   - 8

    ↓    6   12   18    40

   ------------------------------

   3    6    9     20    32 ← remainder

A third-degree polynomial function f has real zeros -2, ½, and 3, and its leading coefficient negative. Write an equation for f.
Rom4ik [11]
F(x) = k(x+2)(2x-1)(x-3), where k is some constant
= k(2x^3-3x^2-11x+6)
= k(-2x^3+3x^2+11x-6)

k defines some vertical stretch, so there are an infinitely many solutions for f(x).
