Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
If (x+5) is a factor of p(x), then the value x=-5 will make that factor be zero. The product p(x) of which it is a part will also be zero, so p(-5) = 0.
Since p(-5) = 0 at x=-5, there will be an x-intercept at x=-5.
Dividing something by a factor of that thing will always give a remainder of zero. So, p(x)/(x+5) has a remainder of 0.
A landscaper is creating a rectangular flower bed such that the width is half of the length . the area of the flower bed is 34 square feet . write and solve the equation determine the width of the flower bed , to nearest tenth of floor .
Answer :
it says that width is half the length . which also implies that length is double the width . as we shift the 2 from denominator , it gets multiply on RHS
let the length be 2x
and
width be = x
length × breadth = 34
2x × x = 34
2x^2 = 34
x = width = 5.8309518948
