Answer:
(x-2)(x+3)(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the polynomial function p(x)=x^3+7x^2-36
We are to write it as a product of its linear factor
Assuming the value of x that will make the polynomial p(x) to be zero
Let x = 2
P(2) = 2³+7(2)²-36
P(2) = 8+7(4)-36
P(2) = 8+28-36
P(2) = 0
Since p(2) = 0 hence x-2 is one of the linear factors
Also assume x = -3
P(-3) = (-3)³+7(-3)²-36
P(-3) = -27+7(9)-36
P(-3) = -27+63-36
P(-3) = 36-36
P(-3) = 0
Since p(-3) = 0, hence x+3 is also a factor
The two linear pair are (x-2)(x+3)
(x-2)(x+3) = x²+3x-2x-6
(x-2)(x+3) = x²+x-6
To get the third linear function, we will divide x^3+7x^2-36 by x²+x-6 as shown in the attachment.
x^3+7x^2-36/x²+x-6 = x+6
Hence the third linear factor is x+6
x^3+7x^2-36 = (x-2)(x+3)(x+6)
Answer:
BC + CD = BD
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment addition postulate tells you that when a segment is divided into two parts, the sum of the lengths of the first part of the divided segment and the second part of the divided segment will be equal to the length of the whole segment.
If point C divides segment BD into BC and CD, then the sum of those two segments will match the whole.
Answer:
The length of the four pieces of protective strip is 96 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the w be the width of the rectangular house and L is length. Since L = w + 16, its perimeter P = 2(w + L)
= 2(w + w + 16)
= 2(2w + 16)
Since the perimeter of the house P = 136 feet,
136 = 2(2w + 16)
dividing through by 2, we have
136/2 = (2w + 16)
68 = (2w + 16)
collecting like terms, we have
68 - 16 = 2w
52 = 2w
dividing through by 2, we have
w = 52/2
w = 26 feet.
Now, since the side walk is 3 foot wide all around, the width of the house plus sidewalk = w + 3 and the length of the house plus sidewalk = L + 3 = w + 16 + 3 = w + 19.
So, the perimeter of the house plus sidewalk which is the perimeter of the four pieces of protective strip is P' = 2(w + 3 + w + 19)
= 2(w + 22)
= 2(26 + 22)
= 2(48)
= 96 feet
So, the length of the four pieces of protective strip is 96 feet.
