1 5/8 = 13/8
(13/8)/14 = .116 or 13/112
.116 (26) = 3.016 or 169/56

Answer:

  3 1/56 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, you're to assume that the amount of food is supposed to be proportional to weight. If x is the amount of food for the 26-pound dog, then ...

  cups/weight = (1 5/8)/14 = x/26

Multiplying by 26 we have ...

  x = (26)(13/8)/14 = 338/112 . . . cups

  x = 3 1/56 cups ≈ 3.02 cups

About 3.02 cups of the same type of food should be fed to a 26-pound dog.

Find the remainder when f(x)=x3−4x2−6x−3 f ( x ) = x 3 − 4 x 2 − 6 x − 3 is divided by x+1
loris [4]

Answer:

The remainder is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Polynomial Remainder Theorem, if we divide a polynomial P(x) by a binomial (<em>x</em> - <em>a</em>), then the remainder of the operation will be given by P(a).

Our polynomial is:

P(x) = x^3-4x^2-6x-3

And we want to find the remainder when it's divided by the binomial:

x+1

We can rewrite our divisor as (<em>x</em> - (-1)). Hence, <em>a</em> = -1.

Then by the PRT, the remainder will be:

\displaystyle\begin{aligned}  R &= P(-1)\\ &=(-1)^3-4(-1)^2-6(-1)-3 \\ &= (-1)-4(1)+(6)-3 \\ &= -2 \end{aligned}

The remainder is -2.
