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.

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

For Dog walking, he earns $30 for 5 hours of work.

He earns $36 for 6 hours of work.

$30/5 hours = $6/hour

$36/6 hours = $6/hour

He earns $6/hour dog walking.

For 8 hours, he earns 8 hours * $6/hour = $48

To earn $66, he works 66/6 = 11 hours.

5 30

6 36

8 48

11 66

Part B:

He earns $7/hour for yard work, so multiply the number of hours by 7 to find the money he earns.

Table for yard work

Hours     Money

5             $35

6             $42

8             $56

Part C:

For 5 hours, he earns $35 for yard work and $30 as a dog walker.

$35 - $30 = $5
