Answer:

The factors of given polynomial    x =-1 , -2 and x =3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):</em></u>-

Given the polynomial  

                    f(x) =  x³ - 7x -6

 put x =-1

               f(-1) = (-1 )³- 7(-1) - 6 = -1+7-6=0

(x+1) is a one factor

By using synthetic division

                   x³    x²      x      constant

     x=-1  ↓   1      0      -7        -6

             <u>↓   0     -1      1          6</u>

            <u>       1       -1      -6       0     </u>

<u />

<em>The polynomial    x² - x - 6 </em>

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

The factors ( x+1)(x² - x - 6 ) = 0

     x = -1 and x² - x - 6 =0

    x =-1    and  x² - 3x + 2 x - 6 =0

   x =-1     and  x (x -3) + 2( x-3) =0

   x =-1     and  (x+2)(x-3) =0

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The factors of given polynomial    x =-1 , -2 and x =3

Write the repeating decimal 0.515151515151... as a fully simplified fraction.
mote1985 [20]
<h3>Answer: 51/99</h3>

=================================================

Work Shown:

x = 0.515151...

100x = 51.515151....

Subtract the two equations to get 100x-x = 99x on the left side and 51.515151.... - 0.515151... = 51 on the right side. Notice the decimal portions cancel out.

So we end up with 99x = 51 which solves to x = 51/99

This means 51/99 = 0.515151...
