So,

We can just subtract the fractions without converting any denominators.  To do that, we can split the subtraction problem up as follows:

12 - 5 - 1/8
7 - 1/8
6 7/8

Sally still has 6 7/8 or 6.875 miles to run.

What is the cofunction of cos 2pi/ 9
fiasKO [112]

The cofunction of cos is sin(90-x)

90 degrees is equal to PI/2

The cofunction becomes sin(PI/2 - 2PI/9)

Rewrite both fractions to have a common denominator:

PI/2 = 9PI/18

2PI/9 = 4PI/18

Now you have sin(9PI/18 - 4PI/18)

Simplify:

Sin(5PI/18)

A 4-PINT carton of ice cream costs $12.04. What is the price per QUART
kiruha [24]

1 quart = 2 pints.

This means a 4 pint container is 2 quarts.

To find the price for 1 quart divide the price by 2:

12.04 / 2 = $6.02 per quart.

Factorise x cube -2x square -5x plus 6
zepelin [54]

Answer:   {(x + 2), (x - 1), (x - 3)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Presented symbolically, we have:

x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 6

Synthetic division is very useful for determining roots of polynomials.  Once we have roots, we can easily write the corresponding factors.  

Write out possible factors of 6:  {±1, ±2, ±3, ±6}

Let's determine whether or not -2 is a root.  Set up synthetic division as follows:

-2   /   1   -2   -5   6

              -2     8   -6

     -----------------------

        1     -4      3    0

since the remainder is zero, we know for sure that -2 is a root and (x + 2) is a factor of the given polynomial.  The coefficients of the product of the remaining two factors are {1, -4, 3}.  This trinomial factors easily into {(x -1), (x - 3)}.

Thus, the three factors of the given polynomial are {(x + 2), (x - 1), (x - 3)}
