You can find the remainder right away by simply plugging in x=3. The polynomial remainder theorem guarantees that the value of p(3) is the remainder upon dividing p(x) by x-3, but I digress...

Synthetic division yields

3   |   2   -11   18   -15
.    |           6   -15     9
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.    |   2     -5     3     -6

which translates to

\dfrac{2x^3-11x^2+18x-15}{x-3}=2x^2-5x+3-\dfrac6{x-3}

(and note that p(3)=2(3)^3-11(3)^2+18(3)-15=-6, as expected)

The circumference of a circle is approximately 131.88 centimeters What is the area of the shaded region (6/10 of a circle)
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

82.97cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Circumference=  131.88 centimeters

We want to find the area of 6/10 part of a circle

Firstly, let us find the area of the circle

We need to get the radius

C= 2πr

131.88= 2*3.142*r

131.88=6.284r

r=  131.88/6.284

r=20.98 cm

Area= πr^2

Area= 3.142*20.98^2

Area= 3.142*440.16

Area= 1382.98cm^2

Hence 6/10 of a 1382.98

=0.06*1382.98

=82.97cm^2

choose the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the given point
alexdok [17]

We want to determine the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the point (5.6) .

The equation and the point is;

y=\frac{2}{3}x+9,(5,6)

We know that for two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes should be -1.

Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular should be;

m=-\frac{1}{(\frac{2}{3})}=-\frac{3}{2}

The second condition is that the line must pass through the point (5,6) , to do thid, we write the equation of the line in point slope form which is;

y-y_1=m(x-x_{1_{}})

Inserting all values, we have,

y-6=.-\frac{3}{2}(x-5)

That is the final answer.
