Last week Gill read 164 of the 276 pages of the book.
hope this helped :)
note that the zeroes should be x = 1 and x = - 2 not x = - 1 and x = 2
the factors are then ( x - 1 ) and (x + 2)
and x³ - 4x² - 7x + 10 = (x - 1 )(x + 2) = x² + x - 2
thus x² + x - 2 is a factor
dividing x³ - 4x² - 7x + 10 by x² + x - 2 gives x - 5
the third zero is x = 5
check : (5)³ -4(5)² - 7(5) + 10 = 125 - 100 - 35 + 10 = 0
Answer:
They are at the same height at 1.13 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The rockets are at the same height when f(x) = g(x) [see below] are the same. So you can equate them.
Givens
f(x) = - 16x^2 + 74x + 9
g(x) = -16x^2 + 82x I have changed this so you don't have 2 f(x)s
Solution
- f(x) = g(x)
- -16x^2 + 74x + 9 = -16x^2 + 82x Add: 16x^2 to both sides
- -16x^2+16x^2+74x + 9 = -16x^2+16x^2 + 82x Combine terms
- 74x + 9 = 82x Subtract 74x from both sides
- 74x - 74x + 9 = 82x - 74x Combine
- 9 = 8x Divide by 8
- 9/8 = 8x/8
- x = 1 1/8 Convert to decimal
- x = 1.125
- x = 1.13 [rounded]
y - 4 = -2 ( x - ( -11)) which would simplify to y - 4 = -2 ( x + 11) !!
I believe the answer is X=15
