Answer:
a = -86.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Factor Theorem, if x + 4 is a factor then P(-4) = 0, so:
P(-4) = 2(-4)^3 - 11(-4)^2 + a(-4)- 40 = 0
-128 - 176 - 4a - 40 = 0
-4a = 128 +176 + 40
-4a = 344
a = -86.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
The x intercepts must be 1 and -4, so C.
L = w+22
2(l+w) = 4040
2(w+22+w) = 4040
2w + 22 = 4040/2 = 2020
2w = 2020-22 = 1998
w = 999ft
l = w+22 = 999+22 = 1021ft
w = 999 ft
