Answer:
(x+1)(x-14)(x+3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step in factorising polynomials is to find the smallest factor first. The way to do this is with trial and error. Lets see if x+1 is a factor.
According to the factor theorem, (x-a) is a factor of P(x) if and only when P(a) = 0
In this case we will use f(x) = ((x)^3)-((10x)^2)-53x-42
f(-1) = 0
Therefore (x+1) is a factor of the polynomial.
Now we divide the polynomial with (x+1) via long division to get (x^2)-11x-42.
We now factorise (x^2)-11x-42 using whatever method you would like. I'm going to use the AC method, where we find a number that multiplies to AC and adds to B, In this case AC = -42, and B = -11.
Therefore (x^2)-11x-42 factosied is (x-14)(x+3)
Now merge (x+1) with (x-14)(x+3)
The final answer is (x+1)(x-14)(x+3)

Answer:
well, only 87 people were asked. How did they get 482?
also, they should have asked the people in the library.
The answer to this is 2/3
The complete question is
John and Matt are going to fill a pool with 2 different sized hoses. John can fill the pool in 5 hours, while Matt can complete it in 10 hours.How long will it take both to fill the pool? Explain each step in solving this equation.
we know that
<span>John can fill the pool in --------------> 5 hours
</span>therefore
<span>I calculate the amount of pool that John fills in one hour
</span>if John can fill 100% of the pool in----------------> 5 hours
X--------------------------------------> 1 hour
X=1/5=0.20 pool/hour
Matt can fill the pool in --------------> 10 hours
therefore
I calculate the amount of pool that Matt fills in one hour
if Matt can fill 100% of the pool in----------------> 10 hours
X--------------------------------------> 1 hour
X=1/10=0.10 pool/hour
<span>adding both amounts
(0.20+0.10)=0.30 -----------> 30% pool/hour
then
</span>if both can fills 30% of the pool in----------------> 1 hour
100%-------------------------------> X
X=100/30=3.33 hours----------> 3 hours + 19 minutes+ 48 sec
the answer is 3.33 hours (3 hours + 19 minutes+ 48 sec)
<span>The equation to determine the amount of pool filling (y) according to time (t) in hours is given by
</span><span>y=0.30*t
</span>
