Answer:

f(-1) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

See below for the synthetic division tableau. The remainder is 4, hence ...

f(-1) = 4

___

IMO, in this function it is far easier just to substitute -1 for x. Since the only terms are of even degree, the value of f(-1) is the sum of the coefficients:

f(-1) = -1 +1 +4

f(-1) = 4

One angle of a triangle measures 130°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 2:3. What are the measures of those two angles?

forsale [732]

The measures of the other two angles are 20 and 30.

$180 - 130 = 50$

$2 + 3 = 5$

$50 \div 5 = 10$

$10 \times 2 : \: 10 \times 3$

$20 \: : \: 30$

Which is greater 9/16 or 8/15

chubhunter [2.5K]

I find that turning the fractions into decimals helps in this situation.
9/16 = 0.5625
8/15 = 0.5333

so 9/16 is greater then 8/15
