PLEASE HELP I am confused on these equations

Mathematics

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll show you step by step how to do the synthetic division.

You are dividing polynomial -6x^4 + 22x^3 + 3x^2 + 15x + 20 by x - 4.

From the polynomial, you only need the coefficients in descending order of degree as they are written.

         -6    22    3    15    20

In synthetic division, you divide by x - b. You are dividing by x - 4, so b = 4.

The 4 is written to the left of the coefficients of the polynomial.

      ___________________

4   |       -6    22    3    15    20

      ___________________

This is what the setup looks like. You can see it in the problem you were given.

The first step is to just copy the leftmost coefficient straight down to below the line.

      ___________________

4   |       -6    22    3    15    20

      ___________________

             -6

Now multiply b, which is 4, by -6 and write it above and to the right.

     ___________________

4   |       -6    22    3    15    20

                    -24

      ___________________

            -6

Add 22 and -24 and write it next to -6.

     ___________________

4   |       -6    22    3    15    20

                    -24

      ___________________

             -6     -2

Multiply 4 by -2 and write it above and to the right. Add vertically.

     ___________________

4   |       -6    22     3    15    20

                    -24   -8

      ___________________

             -6     -2    -5

Multiply 4 by -5 and write it above and to the right. Add vertically.

     ___________________

4  |       -6    22     3    15    20

                    -24   -8   -10

      ___________________

             -6     -2    -5   -5

Multiply 4 by -5 and write it above and to the right. Add vertically.

     ___________________

4   |       -6    22     3    15    20

                    -24   -8   -10   -20

      ___________________

             -6     -2    -5   -5      0

The 4 numbers in the second line are the coefficients of the quotient.

The quotient is 1 degree less than the original polynomial.

The quotient is: -24x^3 - 8x^2 - 10x - 20

The last number on the third line is the remainder. Since here the reminder is zero, that means that this division has no remainder. The remainder is 0/(x - 4)

Fill in the boxes with:

-24, -8, -10, -20

-6, -2, -5, -5, 0

-24x^3 - 8x^2 - 10x - 20

0

Can the set of lengths be the side lengths of a right triangle?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

B. No.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given 3 side lengths 7 ft, 12 ft, 17 ft. We are asked to determine, whether the given set of lengths can form a right triangle or not.

We will use Pythagoras theorem to solve our given problem, which states that the square of hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of squares of two legs of right triangle.

17^2=12^2+7^2

289=144+49

289>193

Since the sum of  squares of both legs is less than square of hypotenuse, therefore, the given set of lengths can not be the side lengths of a right triangle.

Which of the following equations best represents the graph of a function f(m)?
Inessa [10]

Answer: y = f(m)


Justification:


By definition, the graph of a function in the cartesian coordinate plane is the plot of the curve that join all the points that satisfy the equation of the function.


In the cartesian coordinate plane, each point is represented by a pair of coordinates (y, x). y is the value of the function f(x), and x is any input value of the function.


In this case, the function is given as f(m), which means that the input value is represented by m.


Hence, the graph is the plot of y = f(m).


The choice of the letter used for the variable is completely arbitrary and does not change either the math or the graph. It could have been said that the function is f(x) in which case the graph would be y = f(x). Nothing changes but the name that you use.
