Answer:
(x - 2)*(x - 1) is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to divide the polynomial f(x) = x^{3}-8x^{2}+17x-10 by (x-5).
Now, after dividing f(x) gets simplified into (x-5)*(x^{2}-3x+2).
So, we need to factorize the quadratic equation x^{2}-3x+2.
i.e. x^{2} - 3x + 2 = x^{2} - x - 2x + 2 = x(x-1) - 2(x-1) = (x - 2)*(x - 1)
Therefore, f(x) again gets simplified into (x-5)*(x - 2)*(x - 1)
Now eliminating the common factor (x-5).
We get, = (x - 2)*(x - 1)
Answer: 500 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Let there are x people in the survey.
According to the question,
People who like football as their favorite sports = 42 % of x = 0.42 x
People who like baseball as their favorite sports = 33 % of x = 0.33 x
People who like soccer as their favorite sports = 25 % of x = 0.25 x
But, 210 people said football was their favorite sport.
⇒ 0.42 x = 210
⇒ 42 x = 21000
⇒ x = 500
Therefore, there are 500 people in the survey.
