Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of a line, calculate the distance between points with a ratio of vertical to horizontal distance. This is done using the formula:

Here the points are (-7,-2) and (-6,7). Substitute and simplify.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
- f(x) = 4x³ + 3x² - 2x - 1
<u>Divide it by the following:</u>
<u>(a) 2x + 1</u>
- 4x³ + 3x² - 2x - 1 =
- (4x³ + 2x²) + (x² + 1/2x) - (5/2x + 5/4) + 1/4 =
- 2x²(2x+1) + 1/2x(2x + 1) - 5/4(2x + 1) + 1/4 =
- (2x + 1)(2x² + 1/2x - 5/4) + 1/4
Quotient = 2x² + 1/2x - 5/4
Remainder = 1/4
<u>(b) 2x - 3</u>
- 4x³ + 3x² - 2x - 1 =
- (4x³ - 6x²) + (9x² - 13.5x) + (11.5x - 17.25) + 16.25 =
- (2x -3)(2x² + 4.5x + 5.75) + 16.25
Quotient = 2x² + 4.5x + 5.75
Remainder = 16.25
<u>(c) 4x - 1</u>
- 4x³ + 3x² - 2x - 1 =
- (4x³ - x²) + (4x² - x) - (2x - 1/2) - 3/2 =
- (4x - 1)(x² + x - 1/2) - 3/2
Quotient = x² + x - 1/2
Remainder = - 3/2
<u>(d) x + 2</u>
- 4x³ + 3x² - 2x - 1 =
- (4x³ + 8x²) - (5x² + 10x) + (8x + 16) - 17 =
- (x + 2)(4x² - 5x + 8) - 17
Quotient = 4x² - 5x + 8
Remainder = - 17
Using the distributive property we know we distribute by multiplying the outside values to those inside of the parentheses
outside values: 2
inside values: 5 and r
now multiply out inside values by the outside values
2x5 = 10
2xr = 2r
now plug these values back in for the inside values and take away the outside value and the parentheses
so 2(5+r) using the distribution property is 10+2r
The first box is correct because if drawn on a praph it would show that it has a curve. Also another way to find out if it is nonlinear or linear is because the x-axis is increasing and the y-axis is decreasing. Hope this helps :)
