Answer:

  (b)  -36

Step-by-step explanation:

Synthetic division is often performed using a table of the kind shown in the attachment. The coefficients of f(x) are placed across the top, and the x-value to be evaluated is placed at the left. The rule for finding table entries is shown. (The first (left-most) number at the bottom is the leading coefficient of the polynomial.)

This table shows the remainder, which is f(-2), is -36.

__

The equation itself can be rewritten in "Horner form" to facilitate evaluation.

  f(x) = (((-x +2)x -1)x +4)x +8

In this form, substituting for x and doing the evaluation is easier for mental arithmetic. You will notice that the contents of parentheses at each level match the bottom line of the synthetic division table.

  f(-2) = (((-(-2) +2)(-2) -1)(-2) +4)(-2) +8

  = (((4)(-2) -1)(-2) +4)(-2) +8

  = ((-9)(-2) +4)(-2) +8

  = (22)(-2) +8

  = -36

  f(-2) = -36 . . . . remainder from synthetic substitution

Is a tray with a circumference of 32 inches is big enough to
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference formula is C=2 pi r, if you divide the pizza by 2 to get the radius,5, then input it into the formula to get 31.41592654, and since this number is smaller than 32 it will fit. If 10 is the radius it will not fit.
