(2x² - 5x-3)/ (x-3)<br> DIvide the polynomials

Anika [276]

Answer:

2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{(2x² - 5x-3)}{(x - 3)}$

Factor out 2x² - 5x-3

$\frac{(2x + 1)(x - 3)}{x - 3}$

divide x - 3 by x - 3

=> 2x + 1

<em><u>Or another step</u></em>

Step by Step Solution

STEP

Equation at the end of step 1

STEP

2x² - 5x - 3/ x - 3

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1 Factoring 2x² - 5x - 3

The first term is, 2x² its coefficient is 2 .

The middle term is, -5x its coefficient is -5 .

The last term, "the constant", is -3

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • -3 = -6

Step-2 : Find two factors of -6 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .

-6 + 1 = -5 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -6 and 1

2x² - 6x + 1x - 3

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

2x • (x-3)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

1 • (x-3)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(2x+1) • (x-3)

Which is the desired factorization

Canceling Out :

2.2 Cancel out (x-3) which appears on both sides of the fraction line.

Final result :

2x + 1

A teacher has a total of 7/9 bucket of water to pour into pots with flowers that are standing in equal quantities on two windows

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

14 pots

Step-by-step explanation:

if teacher pours 1/18 in each pot and there was 7/9 buckets in total, 9 fits into 18 twice so just 7X2 =14 and 9X2=18 so 14 pots were watered

Find the seventh term of the sequence which has a first term of 1/2 and has a common ratio of three

prohojiy [21]

The seventh term of the sequence is 364.5

<h3>Geometric progression </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the seventh term of the sequence

Using the formula,

$a_{n} = ar^{n-1}$

Where $a_{n}$ is the nth term

a is the first term

and r is the common ratio

From the given information,

a = 1/2

r = 3

Thus,

$a_{7} = (\frac{1}{2}) 3^{7-1}$

$a_{7} = (\frac{1}{2}) 3^{6}$

$a_{7} = \frac{1}{2} \times 729$

$a_{7} = 364\frac{1}{2} \ OR \ 364.5$

Hence, the seventh term of the sequence is 364.5

Find all the zeros for each function P(x)=x^4-4x^3-x^2+20x-20

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The zeros of the given polynomial function are

2,2, $\pm\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial is $P(x)=x^4-4x^3-x^2+20x-20$

To find the zeros equate the given polynomial to zero

ie., P(x)=0

$P(x)=x^4-4x^3-x^2+20x-20=0$

By using synthetic division we can solve the polynomial:

2_| 1 -4 -1 20 -20

0 2 -4 -10 20

_____________________

1 -2 -5 10 |_0

Therefore x-2=0

x=2 is a zero of P(x)

Now we can write the cubic equation as below:

$x^3-2x^2-5x+10=0$

Again using synthetic division

2_| 1 -2 -5 10

0 2 0 -10

______________

1 0 -5 |_0

Therefore x-2=0

x=2 is also a zero of P(x).

Now we have $x^2+0x-5=0$

$x^2-5=0$

$x^2=5$

$x^=\pm\sqrt{5}$ is a zero of P(x)

Therefore the zeros are 2,2, $\pm\sqrt{5}$
