Answer:

x= 1, x= 4, and x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the possible combinations of factors of the constant term of the polynomial to find a first root. Try 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, etc.

Notice in particular that x = 1 is a root (makes f(1) = 0):

f(1)=x^3-2*1^2-11*1+12=1-2-11+12=13-13=0

So we know that x=1 is a root, and therefore, the binomial (x-1) must divide the original polynomial exactly.

As we perform the division, we find that the remainder of it is zero (perfect division) and the quotient is: x^2-x-12

This is now a quadratic expression for which we can find its factor form:

x^2-x-12=x^2-4x+3x-12=x(x-4)+3(x-4)=(x-4)*(x+3)

From the factors we just found, we conclude that x intercepts (zeroes) of the original polynomial are those x-values for which each of the factors: (x-1), (x-4) and (x+3) give zero. That is, the values x= 1, x= 4, and x= -3. (these are the roots of the polynomial.

Mark these values on the number line as requested.

2x + y = 2<br><br> x – 2y = -4<br><br> what is x and y?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

x = 0

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 2 (Multiply by 2)

x – 2y = -4

4x + 2y = 4

x – 2y = -4

5x = 0

x = 0

2x + y = 2

2(0) + y = 2

0 + y = 2

y = 2

Which expression is equivalent to (53)−2?
faust18 [17]
a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\(5^3)^{-2}=5^{3\cdot(-2)}=5^{-6}=\dfrac{1}{5^6}=\dfrac{1}{5\cdot5\cdot5\cdot5\cdot5\cdot5}

Josh needs to cover a rectangular opening of 12 inches × 18 inches with plywood. how much will he need, in square feet, if he wa
Whitepunk [10]

we know that

1 ft is equal to 12 in


step 1

dimensions of plywood required

(12+3+3) x (18+3+3)------> 18 in x 24 in


step 2

convert inches to feet

18 in-------> 18/12=1.5 ft

24 in------> 24/12=2 ft


step 3

area of plywood required

A=b*h------> 1.5*2------> A=3 ft²


the answer is

3 ft²
