Answer:

a) f(-1) = 1

b) f(0) = 6

c) f(2) = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is lesser than 0, we have that:

f(x) = 4x + 5

Otherwhise

f(x) = x + 6

(a) f(-1)

Here x = -1.

-1 is lesser than 0

Then

f(x) = 4x + 5

f(-1) = 4*(-1) + 5 = -4 + 5 = 1

(b) f(0)

Here x = 0

When x equals 0

f(x) = x + 6

Then

f(0) = 0 + 6 = 6

(c) f(2)

Here x = 2

When x = 2

f(x) = x + 6

Then

f(2) = 2 + 6 = 8

Is the binomial a factor of the polynomial nominal function?

Sedbober [7]

The factors for given equation f(x)= $x^{3} +3x^{2} -25x-75$ .

(x-1) - No
(x-3) - No
(x+3) - Yes
(x-5) - Yes
(x+5) - Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is f(x)= $x^{3} +3x^{2} -25x-75$ .

Add 0 at the end of the equation.

$x^{3} +3x^{2} -25x-75$ = 0.

Let us group the given equation,

$(x^{3} +3x^{2}) -(25x-75)$ =0.

⇒ Group 1: $x^{3} +3x^{2}$ .

Group 2: $- 25x +75$ .

Pull out factor from each group,

⇒ Group 1: $(x+3)(x^{2})$ .

Group 2: (x+3) (-25).

Join the two group since both (x+3) is common in both groups.

$(x+3)(x^{2} -25)$ =0.

One of the factor is (x+3).

Other factors are solved by the formula, $a^{2}-b^{2} = (a+b) (a-b)$ .

$(x+3)(x^{2} -25)$ = (x+5) (x-5) .

The other factors are (x+5) and (x-5).

MAX POINTS!!! Write and solve a system of equations. Be sure to label the variables. The difference of two numbers is two. Two t

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

5 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y.

The equations are:

x - y = 2
2x + y = 13

Add up the equations to eliminate y and solve for x:

x - y + 2x + y = 2 + 13
3x = 15
x = 15/3
x = 5

Now find the value of y:

y = x - 2
y = 5 - 2
y = 3
