Answer: No
Explanation:
According to factor theorem, if f(x)=0 then x is a factor of the given function or equation.
As x-1 is a factor
We equate x-1=0
x=1
Substituting in x^5-1, we have 1^5-1 =1-1=0.
Hence, it's a factor.
When coming to x^5+1, it would become 1^5+1=1+1=2
So x-1 isn't a factor of x^5+1.
Actually, this answer would be true. Why?
The first equation is: a(sub <em>n</em>) = 8, 13, 18, 23
The second is: a(sub 1)=8 ; a(sub <em>n</em>)= a(sub <em>n</em>-1)+5
if you wish to find the second term, plug two into the equation for <em /><em>n</em>
8+5=13
to find the third, plug the second term, 13, in for <em>n.</em>
13+5=18.
Hope this helped! I know it's a bit on the late side, but at least you can get the general idea!
Ok, so remember
the legnth of the longest side must be LESS THAN the sum of the measures of the other 2 sides
if no longest side (becasue it has 2 longest sides or 3 equal sides), then it can form a triangle
so the longest side is 36
36 must be less than the sum of 15 and 20
36<15+20
36<35
false
therfor it cannot form a triangle
try it yourself, you cannot connect them that way
