Use polynomial division to completely factor y=x^3+3x^2-13x-15 by x+5

Answer:

(x - 3)(x + 1)(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

I'd use synthetic division instead.  If we were to find the roots of the given polynomial, we could from them write the factors as well.

The divisor x + 5 corresponds to root x = -5.  Setting up synthetic div.,

-5   )   1    3    -13    -15

               -5     10    +15

      -----------------------------

           1   -2     -3      0

Since the remainder is 0, we know that -5 is a root and (x + 5) is a factor.  Moreover, we know that the coefficients of the quotient are 1, -2 and -3.

1x² - 2x - 3 can be factored:  the factors are (x - 3) and (x + 1).

So the end result for this problem is (x - 3)(x + 1)(x + 5).

Identifying the Constant of Proportionality - Video & Lesson ... The constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities. In our tomato example, that ratio is $3.00/2, which equals $1.50. Two quantities are directly proportional when they increase and decrease at the same rate.

PLEASE HELP Find the value of x.<br> X<br> 15<br> 12
zlopas [31]

Answer: x = 9

Step-by-Step Solution:

Hypotenuse = 15 units

Base = 12 units

Altitude = x units

Using Pythagoras Theorem,

=> Hypotenuse^2 = Base^2 + Altitude^2

(15)^2 = (12)^2 + x^2

225 = 144 + x^2

225 - 144 = x^2

81 = x^2

x^2 = 81

x = √81

=> x = 9

Therefore, Altitude = 9 units

Use the following algorithm:
andriy [413]

Answer:

First it says that you have to multiply the number x times 2, this will give you 2x as a result. Next you have to build your equation which is 2x=10, when you have an equation like this, you divide the result with the number before x (x=10÷2) your result will be x=5. Now you have to square the result (which is x) to get y, when squaring a number you have to multiply it by itself (depending of how many times it's asking to do so when there's a small number at the upper right corner of your number, that's how many times you multiply it) so if you have to square 5, it should be 5×5 which gives you the result of y being 25.
