Find the value of k so that the remainder is -12 for (2x^4+ 4x^3-7x^2- kx +9)/(x-1).

1 answer:

5 0

First of all let x-1=0
x=1
Therefore,
P(x)=2x^4+4x^3-7x^2-kx+9
P(1)=2(1)^4+4(1)^3-7(1)^2-k(1)+9
2(1)+4(1)-7(1)-k+9=0
2+4-7-k+9=0
15-7-k=0
8-k=0
-k=-8
Therefore,k=8

If (x + 2) is a factor of x3 – 19x – p, find the value of p. Help please

Sergio039 [100]

If $x-a$ is a factor of a polynomial $P(x)$ then, $a$ is its root.

So $-2$ is a root of $x^3-19x-p$

$(-2)^3-19\cdot(-2)-p=0\\-8+38-p=0\\p=30$

I don't know the answer or how to find the answer for give the domain and range of each function. #16 & 18

NNADVOKAT [17]

The domain is anything x is and the range is anything y is. Therefore, to find the domain and ranges in #16 and #18, just copy down the numbers from the charts.

#16
Domain (x): 100, 120, 150, 170
Range (y): 5.4, 3.5, 2.7, 0.2

#18
Domain (x): 20, 25, 35, 40
Range (y): 12, 15, 21, 24
