F. determine if (x + 3) is a factor of (x) = 2x3 + x2 –8x + 21 by using synthetic division. if so, find the other factors.

1 answer:

4 0

Since its x + 3 we use -3

-3| 2 1 -8 21 (these are the # without the x)
___________________

-6 15 -21
-------------------------------
2 -5 7 0

Drag the 2 down, multiple it by -3 to get -6
1+(-6) = -5. -5 * -3 =15 . 15+(-8) = 7
7*-3 = -21. -21 +21 = 0
Since last # is 0 we have a factor.

factor is 2x^2 -5x -7 (we start with a power 1 less the original.)

Humans have a normal body temperature of 98.6 F A temperature, x, that differs from normal by at least 2°F is considered unhealt

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: 98.6 - x ≥ 2 or x - 98.6 ≥ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the normal temperature = 98.6° F

Also, the temperature that differs from normal by at least 2°F is considered unhealthy.

If the temperature is x degree F,

Then, we have two conditions,

Condition 1 : x > 98.6,

The difference between 98.6 and x = x - 98.6

Then the inequality be,

x - 98.6 ≥ 2

Condition 2 : x < 98.6

The difference between 98.6 and x = 98.6 - x

Then the inequality be,

98.6 - x ≥ 2

Question 14 (1 point)

valina [46]

Answer:

C(x) = 25 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

He already has 25 cards.

He is collecting 2 cards per month. In x months, he will have collected:

2 * x = 2x cards

That means that the number of cards he will have after x months will be the sum of the cards he already has and the cards he collects per month:

C(x) = 25 + 2x

Use differentials to estimate the amount of paint needed (in m3) to apply a coat of paint 0.04 cm thick to a hemispherical dome

pogonyaev

The amount of paint is the volume of paint needed.

The amount of paint needed is 0.065312 cubic meters

<h3>How to determine the amount of paint needed</h3>

The volume of a hemisphere is:

$V = \frac 23\pi r^3$

Differentiate the above equation

$V' = 2\pi r^2 r'$

The above equation represents the estimate of the amount of paint needed.

Where:

r represents the radius (r = 52/2 m)
r' represents the thickness (r' = 0.04 cm)

So, we have:

$V' = 2\pi r^2 r'$

$V' = 2 * 3.14 * (52/2\ m)^2 * (0.04cm)$

$V' = 2 * 3.14 * (26\ m)^2 * (0.04cm)$

Express cm as m

$V' = 2 * 3.14 * (26\ m)^2 * (0.0004m)$

$V' = 0.065312 m^3$

Hence, the amount of paint needed is 0.065312 cubic meters
