Answer:

(x-2)(x+3)(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polynomial function p(x)=x^3+7x^2-36

We are to write it as a product of its linear factor

Assuming the value of x that will make the polynomial p(x) to be zero

Let x = 2

P(2) = 2³+7(2)²-36

P(2) = 8+7(4)-36

P(2) = 8+28-36

P(2) = 0

Since p(2) = 0 hence x-2 is one of the linear factors

Also assume x = -3

P(-3) = (-3)³+7(-3)²-36

P(-3) = -27+7(9)-36

P(-3) = -27+63-36

P(-3) = 36-36

P(-3) = 0

Since p(-3) = 0, hence x+3 is also a factor

The two linear pair are (x-2)(x+3)

(x-2)(x+3) = x²+3x-2x-6

(x-2)(x+3) = x²+x-6

To get the third linear function, we will divide x^3+7x^2-36 by x²+x-6 as shown in the attachment.

x^3+7x^2-36/x²+x-6 = x+6

Hence the third linear factor is x+6

x^3+7x^2-36 = (x-2)(x+3)(x+6)

Answer:

x^3 + 7x^2 -36 = (x + 3)(x-2)(x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to rewrite the polynomial

P(x) = x^3 + 7x^2 - 36

As a product of linear factors given that we have one of the roots already as (x + 3)

What we shall do here is to divide the polynomial by x + 3

Please check attachment for long polynomial division

From the division, the other factor is x^2 + 4x -12

So we can rewrite the polynomial as;

x^3 + 7x^2 -36 = (x + 3)(x^2 + 4x -12)

So let’s now write x^2 + 4x -12 as a product of its linear factors

x^2 + 4x -12 = x^2 + 6x -2x -12

= x(x + 6)-2(x + 6)

so we have;

(x -2)(x + 6)

Therefore;

x^3 + 7x^2 -36 = (x + 3)(x-2)(x + 6)

George and Paul use a metal alloy that is 18.1% copper to make jewelry. How many ounces of an alloy that is 14% copper must be m
ella [17]

Answer:

Use 49 ounces of the 14% allow and 41 ounces of the 23% alloy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each ounce of the 14% copper contains 0.14 ounce of pure copper.

Each ounce of the 23% copper contains 0.23 ounce of pure copper.

Each ounce of the 18.1% copper contains 0.181 ounce of pure copper.

Use x ounces of the 14% and y ounces of the 23% to make 90 ounces of 18.1% alloy.

x+y  = 90

y = 90-x

0.14x + 0.23y = 0.181·90

0.14x + 0.23(90-x) = 16.29

0.14x + 20.7 - 0.23x = 16.29

-0.09x + 20.7 = 16.29

4.41 = 0.09x

x = 49

y = 90-x = 41

Use 49 ounces of the 14% allow and 41 ounces of the 23% alloy.

Given independent events A and B such that P(A) = 0.3 and P (B) = 0.5, which of the following is a correct statement?
aev [14]

Answer:

(D) P(AUB) = 0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Since A and B are independent:

P(A ^ B)

= P(A) × P(B)

= 0.3 × 0.5 = 0.15

P(AUB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A^B)

= 0.3 + 0.5 - 0.15

= 0.65

A circle has a sector with area 45/4 pi and central angle of 9/10 pi radians. What is the area of the circle?
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

the area of the circle: 25π

Step-by-step explanation:

45/4 π = 11.25π

9/10π = 0.9π

11.25π / 0.9π = x / 2π   .... 360° = 2π

x = (11.25π x 2π) / 0.9π = 25π
