Answer:

R = 118

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the polynomial with P and the divisor with D

$P = 19x^2 + 15x + 12$

$D = x -2$

Required

Determine the remainder

We start by equating the divisor to 0

i.e.

$D = 0$

$x - 2 = 0$

$x = 2$

Substitute 2 for x in the polynomial.

This gives remainder (R)

$R = 19*2^2 + 15*2 + 12$

$R = 19*4 + 15*2 + 12$

$R = 76 + 30 + 12$

$R = 118$

<em>Hence, the remainder is 118</em>

Simplify -12x^4/x^4+8x^5

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

OPTION A: $\frac{12}{1 + 8x}$ , where $x \ne - \frac{1}{8}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $\frac{- 12x^4}{x^4 + 8x^5}$

Taking $x^4$ common outside in the denominator, we get:

$= \frac{-12x^4}{(x^4)(1 + 8x)}$

$x^4$ will get cancelled on the numerator and denominator, we get:

$= \frac{-12}{1 + 8x}$

we know that the denominator can not be zero.

That means, 1 + 8x $\ne$ 0.

$\implies 8x \ne -1$

$\implies x \ne \frac{-1}{8}$

So, the answer is: $\frac{-12}{1 + 8x}$ , where $x \ne \frac{-1}{8}$ .

4 - 3x > 13 (Solve for x)

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

X < -3

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - 3x > 13

First move the 4 over, subtract from both sides:

-4 + 4 - 3x > 13 - 4

-3x > 9

Now move the -3 over, divide on both sides.

When you multiply or divide by a negative, you have to reverse the sign.

-3x/-3 < 9/-3

X < -3

Answer:

B, C, D, and F

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is an exponential curve rising upwards. By looking at the graph we can tell that the graph is only increasing, it touches the y-axis at 30 and it lies in the 1st quadrant.

So, option A is wrong, as the graph is increasing.

Option B is correct. The point where graph crosses/touches the y-axis is the y-intercept. So the y-intercept is 30.

Option C is correct. As the graph lies in 1st quadrant and is positive over the entire range of values.

Option D is also correct as the graph is increasing over entire range of values.

Option E is incorrect as y-intercept is 30.

Option F is correct. Since the graph is increasing, this means with every passing year the number of dolphins is increasing.

Therefore, the correct options are: B, C, D, and F
