Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The length of a ladder, H = 20 feet
The height of the wall, h = 15 ft
We know that,
h is perpendicular and H is hypotenuse
So,
Now using Pythagoras theoerm,
Hence, the angle made by the ladder and the ground is 48.59° and the ladder is 13.2 feet from the wall on the ground.
So for this, we will be using synthetic division. To set it up, have the equation so that the divisor is -10 (since that is the solution of k + 10 = 0) and the dividend are the coefficients. Our equation will look as such:
<em>(Note that synthetic division can only be used when the divisor is a 1st degree binomial)</em>
Now firstly, drop the 1:
Next, you are going to multiply -10 and 1, and then combine the product with 2.
Next, multiply -10 and -8, then combine the product with -82:
Next, multiply -10 and -2, then combine the product with -28:
Now, since we know that the degree of the dividend is 3, this means that the degree of the quotient is 2. Using this, the first 3 terms are k^2, k, and the constant, or in this case k² - 8k - 2. Now what about the last coefficient -8? Well this is our remainder, and will be written as -8/(k + 10).
<u>Putting it together, the quotient is </u>
