<h3>Answer:   -2</h3>

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

Explanation:

We use the remainder theorem. This is the idea where if we divide P(x) over (x-k), then the remainder is P(k).

Comparing x+1 to x-k shows that k = -1

It might help to rewrite x+1 as x-(-1) to get it into the form x-k better.

Plug this k value into the function

f(x) = 2x^6 + 3x^5 - 1

f(-1) = 2(-1)^2 + 3(-1)^5 - 1

f(-1) = 2(1) + 3(-1) - 1

f(-1) = 2 - 3 - 1

f(-1) = -1 - 1

f(-1) =-2

The remainder is -2

We can confirm this through synthetic division or polynomial long division.

The length of a rectangle is three times its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is at most 112cm. Which inequality models the
miss Akunina [59]

Answer: w ≤ 14 cm , L ≤ 42 cm

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

width (w): w

Length(L): 3w

Perimeter (P) = 2w + 2L

P ≤ 112

 2w +   2L   ≤ 112

2(w) + 2(3w) ≤ 112

 2w +   6w   ≤ 112

       8w        ≤ 112

         w        ≤ 14
