We have the following polynomial:
 P (x) = 3 (x ^ 2 + 10x + 5) - 5 (x - k)
 Let's rewrite the polynomial:
 P (x) = 3x ^ 2 + 30x + 15 - 5x + 5k
 P (x) = 3x ^ 2 + 25x + 15 + 5k
 For the polynomial to be divisible by x, then the constant term must be equal to zero:
 15 + 5k = 0
 Clearing k:
 5k = -15
 k = -15 / 5
 k = -3
 Answer: 
 the value of k is: 
 k = -3

7x - 3x = 24
Debora [2.8K]
7x - 3x = 24
The 7x and the 3x are both like terms, so they can be combined. 7 - 3 is 4, so the equation turns into
4x = 24
Now, you want to get the x alone, so you divide both sides by 4 because it is the opposite of multiplication. 24 divided by 4 is 6, so
x = 6

Amanda [17]
The correct answer is d that is because if it is 1 onch per 15 miles then do 11x15 and you get 165 c and d are the only 2 close enough to be it but from there you can cancel c because its 11.3 which means it must be more than 165. and d is the only one that is greater then 165

Which object does not exhibit rotational symmetry?
Furkat [3]

The correct answer is image 3. Clock

Explanation:

An object exhibits rotational symmetry if it can be rotated and still look the same or coincide with the original object. For example, if you rotate a circle this will be symmetrical or will look the same at any rotation. According to this, the clock or third object does not exhibit rotational symmetry because due to details such as the clock hands or the bells if you rotate the image in any direction and at any degree, the image will not coincide with the original one, and therefore there is not symmetry when the object is rotated.
