Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
using the Factor theorem.
If (x + h) is a factor of f(x) then f(- h) = 0
for factor (x + 3) then evaluate P(- 3)
P(- 3) = (- 3)³ - 5(- 3)² + 3(- 3) + 9 = - 27 - 45 - 9 + 9 = - 72
since f(- 3) ≠ 0 then (x + 3) is not a factor of P(x)
Answer:
78.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the square is equal to diameter squared
i.e 4 in × 4 in = 16 square inches
The area of the circle is π × r²
i.e π × 2² = 12.56637061
The percent of the time the point will be in the circle = (Area of the circle) ÷ (Area of the square) × 100
i.e
× 100 = 78.53981631%
And is equal to 78.5% (rounded up to the nearest tenth of a percent)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Add all paper clip sizes together:

They want the probability of either a small or medium being chosen, so you add both paper clips sizes together.

Now put the number of small and medium paper clips together over the total number of paper clips to find the probability.
Can divide 350 and 500 by 50, which simplifies it down to 7/10.

Answer:
Rate of change = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
f(x) = -½(x + 2)² + 5
Required:
Average rate of change from x = -3 to x = 1
Solution:
Rate of change = 
Where,
a = -3,
f(a) = f(-3) = -½(-3 + 2)² + 5 = -½(-1)² + 5 = 4.5
b = 1,
f(b) = f(1) = -½(1 + 2)² + 5 = -½(9) + 5 = 0.5
Plug in the values into the formula:
Rate of change = 
Rate of change = 
Rate of change = -1
