The correct answer is: No, the remainder is -114

Further explanation:

In order to check whether the given term is a factor of given polynomial or not we will put

x+2=0

x=-2

Given

$f(x)=x^3 - 10x^2 + 27^x - 12\\f(-2)=(-2)^3-10(-2)^2+27(-2)- 12\\=-8-10(4)-54-12\\=-8-40-54-12\\=-114$

As the remainder is -114, the term x+2 is not a factor of given polynomial

The correct answer is: No, the remainder is -114

Miguel has already put 36 sports cards in 5 folders. He buys 372 more cards. He puts the same number of cards into the 5 folders

Ainat [17]

I think the answer is 75.6 because i divided 36 cards by 5 folders and i got 1.2. And then i divided 372 extra cards by 5 folders am got 74.4. I add the two total and have 75.6 5/36 = 1.2 5/372 = 74.4 1.2+74.4= 75.6 srry if I'm wrong

An object is dropped from a height of 400 feet. The amount of time, in seconds, the object takes to hit the ground can be found

lidiya [134]

-16t^2+400=0

16t^2=400

take square root on both sides.

$\sqrt{16t^2} =\sqrt{400}$

4t=20

t=20/4

t=5
