If p-1 is a factor of p⁴+p²+p-k what is the value of k

Mathematics
1 answer:
laila [671]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If p-1 is a factor of p⁴+p²+p-k, then we can express the polynomial in form

p⁴+p²+p-k = (p-1) * (ap³ + bp² + cp + d)

where a,b,c,d are constants. The important thing is that we can subst in p = 1 to make the polynomial zero. We can do this for original polynomial. WE must have to equal to 0 when we use p = 1 substitution...

1⁴+1²+1-k = 0

3 - k = 0

k = 3

Log3 a/3 = ??????????????????????????
Naddik [55]
We have that
<span>Log3 a/3
</span>Rewrite log3(a/3) using the change of base <span>formula

we know that
</span>The change of base rule can be used if a and b are greater than 0 and not equal to 1, and x is greater than 0<span>.
</span>so
loga(x)=<span>logb(x)/<span>logb<span>(a)
</span></span></span>Substitute in values for the variables in the change of base <span>formula
</span>
in this problem
b=10
a=3
x=a/3

log3(a/3)=[log (a/3)]/[log (3)]

the answer is
[log (a/3)]/[log (3)]

What two consecutive even integers have a sum of -66?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

the sum of 2 consecutive even integers is 66.

Step-by-step explanation:

This means that if one integers is x, the other must be either x-2 or x+2. Therefore, we can write 6=x+(×-2)=2×2. Solving for x, we can find ×=34. this means that the other integer is 34-2=32. indeed, 32+34=66, and done hope this helped C:
