Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x⁴+ax²+b) ÷ (x+1) = x³-x²+(a+1)x-(a+1) remainder b+(a+1)

Since x+1 is a factor, b+(a+1) = 0.

(x³-x²+(a+1)x-(a+1)) ÷ (x+2) = x²-3x+(a+7) remainder -3a-15

Since x+2 is a factor, -3a-15 = 0

a = -5

b = 4

x⁴+ax²+b = x⁴ - 5x² + 4 = (x²-4)(x²-1) = (x+2)(x-2)(x+1)(x-1)

Ben walks 25 miles from home to work. If he walks the first 5 miles in 1 hour, the second 5 miles in 1.4 hours, the third 5 mile

natka813 [3]

<u>Answer:</u>

The total time taken to complete 25 miles is 7.6 hours.

Solution:

Ben walks 5 miles in 1 hour,

Second 5 miles in 1.4 hours,

Third 5 miles in 1.7 hours,

Last 5 miles in 1.8 hours

So he walked total 20 miles in (1+1.4+1.7+1.8) hours = 5.9 hours = 6 hours (approximately)

So his average speed is $\left(\frac{20}{6}\right)$ miles/hours = 3.33 miles/hours.

i.e. he travels 3.3 miles in 1 hour,

Then, he travels 1 miles in $\left(\frac{1}{3.3}\right)$ hours

Hence the total time he will take to walk 25 miles is $\left(25 \times\left(\frac{1}{3.3}\right)\right) \text { hours }$ $\Rightarrow \left(\frac{25}{3.3}\right) \text { hours } = 7.5757 hours$

That is approximately 7.57 or 7.6 hours.

Determine if the card below represents a reflection over the x-axis or a

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Reflection over y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that with a reflection of the x-axis, we flip the value of the y value

But since the y-values in Q3 and Q4 are both negative, we know that can't be the case

So it has to be a reflection over the y-axis where the x-values are flipped

<em>The sum of multiplies of 5 between 12 and 92 is 840</em>
<em>The sum of multiplies of 3 between 1 and 50 is 408</em>
<em>The sum of multiplies of 11 between 10 and 122 is 726</em>

<em>The sum of the first 32 terms is 3136</em>
<em>The sum of the first 27 terms is -486</em>
<em>The sum of the first 51 terms is 2193</em>

<em />

<u>(a) Sum of multiples of 6, between 8 and 70</u>

There are 10 multiples of 6 between 8 and 70, and the first of them is 12.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 12}$

$\mathbf{n = 10}$

$\mathbf{d = 6}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{10} = \frac{10}2(2*12 + (10 - 1)6)}$

$\mathbf{S_{10} = 390}$

<u>(b) Multiples of 5 between 12 and 92</u>

There are 16 multiples of 5 between 12 and 92, and the first of them is 15.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 15}$

$\mathbf{n = 16}$

$\mathbf{d = 5}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{16} = \frac{16}2(2*15 + (16 - 1)5)}$

$\mathbf{S_{16} = 840}$

<u>(c) Multiples of 3 between 1 and 50</u>

There are 16 multiples of 3 between 1 and 50, and the first of them is 3.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 3}$

$\mathbf{n = 16}$

$\mathbf{d = 3}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{16} = \frac{16}2(2*3 + (16 - 1)3)}$

$\mathbf{S_{16} = 408}$

<u>(d) Multiples of 11 between 10 and 122</u>

There are 11 multiples of 11 between 10 and 122, and the first of them is 11.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 11}$

$\mathbf{n = 11}$

$\mathbf{d = 11}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{16} = \frac{11}2(2*11 + (11 - 1)11)}$

$\mathbf{S_{11} = 726}$

<u>(e) Multiples of 9 between 25 and 100</u>

There are 9 multiples of 9 between 25 and 100, and the first of them is 27.

$\mathbf{n = 9}$

$\mathbf{d = 9}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{9} = \frac{9}2(2*27 + (9 - 1)9)}$
