If x+3 is a factor of x^3-x^2-10x+A. What is the value of A?

Answer:

A = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a denote a constant (a number, rather than a variable like x.)

Let f(x) denote an expression about x (for example,

By the factor theorem, if (x - a) is a factor of f(x), then f(a) = 0. In other words, if all mentions of x in the expression f(x)\! are replaced with a, then the expression should evaluate to zero.

(x + 3) is equivalent to (x - (-3)). That is: a = -3.

Replace all mentions of x in x^3 - x^2 - 10\, x + A by (-3) to get:

(-3)^3 - (-3)^2 - 10\times (-3) + A.

That should evaluate to zero. Therefore: -27 - 9 + 30 + A = 0. Solve for A to get A = 6.

Ivan is painting 3 walls in his living room. Each wall measures 9 3/4 feet tall by 14 1/4 feet wide. Ivan needs to estimate the
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The estimated area is 416\frac{13}{16}\ ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To estimate the area that Ivan will paint , calculate the area of one wall and then multiply by 3

step 1

Convert the dimensions to an improper fractions

9\frac{3}{4}\ ft=\frac{9*4+3}{4}=\frac{39}{4}\ ft

14\frac{1}{4}\ ft=\frac{14*4+1}{4}=\frac{57}{4}\ ft

step 2

Find the area of one wall

(\frac{39}{4})*(\frac{57}{4})=\frac{2,223}{16}\ ft^{2}

step 3

Multiply the area of one wall by 3

(3)*\frac{2,223}{16}=\frac{6,669}{16}\ ft^{2}

step 4

Convert to mixed number

\frac{6,669}{16}=\frac{6,656}{16}+\frac{13}{16}=416\frac{13}{16}\ ft^{2}
