Is -2 a solution to 4x^(3)-x^(2)+16x-4

Mathematics
1 answer:
sergiy2304 [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Not a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for x=-2 to be a solution, the result after substituting must be 0:

4(-2)^3-(-2)^2+16(-2)-4\stackrel{?}{=}0

4(-8)-4-32-4\stackrel{?}{=}0

-32-40\stackrel{?}{=}0

-72\neq0

Therefore, x=-2 is not a solution to 4x^3-x^2+16x-4

A picture is 5 cm longer than it is wide. the perimeter of the picture is 90cm. What is the width of the picture?
Igoryamba
Perimeter=2L+2W
L=W+5, substitute in place of 2L
90=2(W+5)+2W
90=2W+10+2W
90-10=4W
80=4W
80/4=W
W=20, if width is 20 than the length is 20+5=25 cm

How many home runs did each player hit the season
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Let Peter's hit be x and Alice's runs be y.
x = 2(y - 6) . . . (1)
x + y = 18 . . . (2)

Putting (1) into (2) gives,
2y - 12 + y = 18
3y = 18 + 12 = 30
y = 30/3 = 10
x = 2(10 - 6) = 2(4) = 8

Therefore, Peter hit 8 home runs and Alice hit 10 home runs.

Given the graph of f(x), determine the range of f−1(x).
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The graph of f(x) has a horizontal asymptote at y = 3, so its range is the interval union (-∞, 3) U (3, ∞).

The domain of its inverse is the same as the range of f, so the fourth option is correct.

Which system of equations models this problem? (Image attached)
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Your answer would be x+y=531 and y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Nancy bought 531 shirts and that some are long sleeved and some are short sleeved. Since x represents the long sleeved shirts and y represents the short sleeved shirts, x+y=531. We also know that there are twice as many short sleeved shirts as long sleeved shirts. So, y=2x.
