2m + 2p = 16 Subtract 2m from both sides
2p = 16 - 2m Divide both sides by 2
p = 8 - m

2m + 2p = 16....reduce by dividing by 2
m + p = 8
p = 8 - m or p = - m + 8

You plan to set up an endowment at your alma mater that will fund $209,000 of scholarships each year indefinitely. If the princi

Leto [7]

Answer:

$199,047.62

Step-by-step explanation:

PV = X(1+i)^nm

X=$209000

i=5% = 0.05

n=1

m=1

Pv=$209000(1+0.05)^-1x1

Pv=$209000(1.05)^-1

Pv=$209000(1/1.05)

Pv=$209000/1.05

Pv=$199,047.62

$199,047.62 is needed to be donated for investment at 5.0% compounded annually rate for a year so as to get $209,000 at end of the year for the purpose of funding the scholarship.

If x+a is a factor of 2x²+2ax+5x+10,find a.

vazorg [7]

If $x+a$ is a factor of the polynomial, it means that $-a$ is a root of the polynomial.

In fact, if a polynomial $p(x)$ has a root $x_0$ (i.e. $p(x_0)=0$ ), then the polynomial is divisible by $(x-x_0)$

In your case, you know that the polynomial is divisible by $(x+a)=(x-(-a))$ , so $-a$ is a solution.

Let's evaluate $p(-a)$ and set it to zero:

$2(-a)^2+2a(-a)+5(-a)+10 = 0 \iff 2a^2-2a^2-5a+10=0 \iff -5a+10 = 0 \iff a = 2$

We can check the answer: if $a=2$ the polynomial becomes

$2x^2+2(2)x+5x+10 = 2x^2+9x+10$

And we're claiming that $-a=-2$ is a root of this polynomial:

$2(-2)^2+9(-2)+10 = 2\cdot 4 - 18 + 10 = 0$
