There are two possible answers:

t = 2/3   or   t = -1/3

========================================================

Explanation:

The expression x+3 is the same as x-(-3). It is of the form x-k

Recall that by the remainder theorem, we know that p(x) is divisible by (x-k) if and only if p(k) = 0.

In this case, k = -3. Plug this into the p(x) function and we get

p(x) = t^2*x^3 - 3t*x + 6

p(-3) = t^2*(-3)^3 - 3t*(-3) + 6

p(-3) = -27t^2 + 9t + 6

Set that equal to 0

p(-3) = 0

-27t^2 + 9t + 6 = 0

-3(9t^2 - 3t - 2) = 0

9t^2 - 3t - 2 = 0

Now apply the quadratic formula to solve for t

t = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\t = \frac{-(-3)\pm\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(9)(-2)}}{2(9)}\\\\t = \frac{3\pm\sqrt{81}}{18}\\\\t = \frac{3\pm9}{18}\\\\t = \frac{3+9}{18}\ \text{ or } \ t = \frac{3-9}{18}\\\\t = \frac{12}{18}\ \text{ or } \ t = \frac{-6}{18}\\\\t = \frac{2}{3}\ \text{ or } \ t = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\

We get two possible solutions for t.

So 12 mins to 600 feet
35 mins=1900 feet
find the slope which is change in top over change in bottom (aka slope) so to find do
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
we want, per minute, so put the time as x1 and x2
x1=12
y1=600
x2=35
y2=1900
subsitutte
(600-1900)/(12-35)=-1300/-23=56.5 per minute
the answe ris 56.5 feet per minute or the last answer

lozanna [386]
To solve this, you see that the amount of mayo is double that of vinegar, so you can simply divide 16/2 to get 8 teaspoons of vinegar

Geometry help please!!

Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Equilateral triangle means that all sides are equal

Soo

3x + 1 must be equal to 5x - 9

3x + 1 = 5x - 9

-2x = -10

x = 5

Substitute x as 5 into either side value

3(5) + 1 = 15 + 1 = 16

So, all sides equal 16

Which means that y + 3 also equals 16

y + 3 = 16

y = 13
