No, because the charge in dollars is 2.50+m where m is the mileage. If it was proportional, then the charge would double if the mileage is doubled, but this is not the case. If m=5 miles then the charge is $7.50. If the charge were to double to $15 then m=12.5 miles, which is more than double the mileage.

Simplify the expression (x^3- 5x^2 + 7x - 12) ÷ (x – 4) using long division​
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

{x}^{2} - x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Instead, since the divisor is in the form of x - c, use what is called Synthetic Division. Remember, in this formula, -cgives you the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so do not forget it. Anyway, here is how it is done:

4| 1 −5 7 −12

↓ 4 −4 12

_______________

1 −1 3 0 → {x}^{2} - x + 3

You start by placing the c in the top left corner, then list all the coefficients of your dividend [x³ - 5x² + 7x - 12]. You bring down the original term closest to c then begin your multiplication. Now depending on what symbol your result is tells you whether the next step is to subtract or add, then you continue this process starting with multiplication all the way up until you reach the end. Now, when the last term is 0, that means you have no remainder. Finally, your quotient is one degree less than your dividend, so that 1 in your quotient can be an {x}^{2}, the −1 [x] follows right behind it, and bringing up the rear, comes the 3, giving you the quotient of {x}^{2} - x + 3.

<u>Geometry</u>

  • Complementary Angles - Angles that add up to 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Set Up Equation</u>

<em>The 2 angles must add up to 90°.</em>

(8m + 4)° + 38° = 90°

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                    8m + 42 = 90
  2. Isolate <em>m</em> term:                             8m = 48
  3. Isolate <em>m</em>:                                      m = 6
