The total cost of an order of gift baskets includes the cost of each gift basket plus a one time delivery fee. The cost of each

gift basket is the same regardless of how many the customer orders. One company bought 40 gift baskets for their employees for a total of $715. Another company bought 400 gift baskets for $5,935. Based on the information given, what is the cost per gift basket?

Answer:

x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5

y = one time delivery fee = $135

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of each gift basket

y = one time delivery fee

40x + y = 715 (1)

400x + y = 5935 (2)

Subtract (1) from (2)

400x - 40x = 5935 - 715

360x = 5220

x = 5220/360

x = 14.5

Substitute x = 14.5 into (1)

40x + y = 715 (1)

40(14.5) + y = 715

580 + y = 715

y = 715 - 580

y = 135

x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5

y = one time delivery fee = $135

Is (x + 7) a factor of f(x) = x^3 − 3x^2 + 2^x − 8? Use either the remainder theorem or the factor theorem to explain your reaso
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Not a factor

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use Factor Theorem to answer this question. According to this theorem, in order to find if (x - a) is a factor of a polynomial f(x), calculate f(a). If f(a) comes out to be equal to zero, this will mean that (x-a) is  factor of f(x).

Here, the expression we have is (x + 7), so we need to find f(-7) in order to check if (x+7) is a factor of f(x) or not

f(x)=x^{3}-3x^{2}+2x-8

Substituting x = -7, we get:

f(-7)=(-7)^{3}-3(-7)^{2}+2(-7)-8\\\\ f(-7)=-512

Since f(-7) ≠ 0, (x + 7) is not a factor of the polynomial f(x)
