Answer:

The answer to your question is: x - 4 is not a factor

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4 is a factor of    4x³ - 20x² + 18x -12

We can do synthetic division to know if it is a factor

                           4     - 20     +18      -12         4

                                     16      -16        8                                              

                           4       -4         +2     -4

x -4  is not a factor because there was a residue of -4

In the literal equation below, what do C and F represent?<br> F = C + 32
ladessa [460]

Hi!

Let's take a look at the equation:

F = C + 32

What do we notice?

C and F are both variables.

Variables are unknown numbers represented by a letter.

In this case, C and F are the variables.

Hope this helps!

What values of a and b make the equation true? StartRoot 648 EndRoot = StartRoot 2 Superscript a Baseline times 3 Superscript b
kramer

Option C: a=3, b=4 is the value of a and b

Explanation:

Given that the expression \sqrt{648}=\sqrt{2^a\times3^b}

We need to determine the value of a and b

Let us consider the term \sqrt{648} and take the prime factorization of the term 648

Thus, we have,

648 divides by 2,

648=2 \cdot 324

324 divides by 2,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 162

162 divides by 2,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 81

81 divides by 3,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 27

27 divides by 3,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 9

9 divides by 3,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3

Thus, we have,

\sqrt{648}=\sqrt{2^{3} \cdot 3^{4}}

Therefore, equating the powers of 2 and 3, we get,

a=3, b=4

Hence, the value of a and b is 3 and 4

Thus, Option C is the correct answer.
