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.

Let F(x,y)=1+sqrt(4-y^2). . (a) Evaluate F(3,1). (b) Find and sketch the domain of F. (c) Find the range of F
charle [14.2K]
The goal of this function is to get  a positive value under the square root sign so that the value would not be invalid. Evaluating F(3,1), the value is 1 + <span>sqrt(4-1^2) or equal to 1 + sqrt of 3.</span> In this case, the domain would be x equal to any numbers and the range equal to numbers from -2 ≤ y ≤ 2.

George plans to cover his circular pool for the upcoming winter season. The pool has a diameter of 20 feet and the cover extends
MariettaO [177]

For the circular cover we have:

A) The area is 379.94 ft²

B) The length of the rope must be 68.2 ft

<h3>How to get the area of the cover?</h3>

Remember that the area of a circle of radius R is given by the formula:

A = pi*R^2

Where pi = 3.14

In this case, the diameter of the pool is 20ft, then the radius is:

R = 20ft/2 = 10ft

And it must extend 12 inches beyond, then the radius of the cover must be:

R = 10ft + 12in

Now, we know that 1ft = 12 in, then we can rewrite the radius as:

R = 10ft +1ft = 11ft

Then the area of the cover is:

A = 3.14*(11ft)^2 = 379.94 ft^2

B) now we want to get the length of the rope, we know that the rope runs along the cover, then the length of the rope must be equal to the circumference of the cover.

Remember that the circumference of a circle of radius R is:

C = 2*pi*R

Then the length of the rope will be:

C = 2*3.14*11ft = 68.2ft
