Answer:

15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude is one leg of the right triangle formed by the altitude, half the base, and the triangle side. The Pythagorean theorem applies, so you have ...

... (17 cm)² = (altitude)² + (16 cm/2)²

... altitude = √(17² -8²) cm = √225 cm

... altitude = 15 cm

Consider the polynomial function g(x)=x³-3x²+6x+8. Divide g by x+1.
irina [24]

Answer:

Quotient ( x² -4x +10)

Reminder -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to consider the polynomial function g(x) = x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8

Now, we have to divide g(x) by (x+1)

Let us arrange the terms of g(x) to get (x+1) as common.

x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8

= x³ +x² -4x² -4x +10x +10 -2

= x² (x +1) -4x (x +1) +10 (x +1) -2

= (x +1)( x² -4x +10) -2

Hence, if we divide g(x) by (x +1) then the quotient will be ( x² -4x +10) and the reminder will be -2. (Answer)

Answer:

Correct answer:  (a - 4) · (a + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

a² - 4a - 24 + 6a = a² - 4a + 6a - 24 = a (a - 4) + 6 (a - 4) = (a - 4) · (a + 6)

God is with you!!!
