Mathematics

Answer:

a = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

x-1 = 0

x = 1

let x³ + ax² -x -8 be p(x)

hence, p(1) = (1)³ + a(1)² -1 -8 = 0    (since, x-1 is a factor)

= 1 + a - 1-8

= a - 8 = 0

therefore, a = 8

If f(x) = 2x2 - x, find f(-3).
jonny [76]
F(x) = 2x^2 - x
if x=-3

f(-3) = (2*(-3)^2) - (-3)
f(-3) = (2*9) + 3
f(-3) = 18 + 3
f(-3) = 21

Solving systems of linear inequalities ​
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

To solve a system of of linear inequalities, you could do the elimination method or substitution method.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • For elimination method, you can add the same value to each side of an equation. So if you have a system: x – 6 = −6 and x + y = 8, you can add x + y to the left side of the first equation and add 8 to the right side of the equation.

For substitution method, you have to:

Step 1 : First, solve one linear equation for y in terms of x.

Step 2 : Then substitute that expression for y in the other linear equation.

Step 3 : Solve this, and you have the x -coordinate of the intersection.

Step 4 : Then plug in x to either equation to find the corresponding y -coordinate.
