SAT
1 answer:
kompoz [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

k = -4

Explanation:

Given

P(x) = (3x^2 - 5)(x + k) - 20

x is a factor

Required

Solve for k

x is a factor means that the polynomial can be divided successfully by x.

In other words, x is a zero of the polynomial.

i.e.

x = 0 and P(x) = 0

Substitute 0 for x in P(x)

P(x) = (3x^2 - 5)(x + k) - 20

P(x) = (3*0^2 - 5)(0 + k) - 20

P(x) = (0- 5)(k) - 20

P(x) = (-5)(k) - 20

P(x) = -5k - 20

Substitute 0 for P(x)

0 = -5k - 20

Collect Like Terms

5k = - 20

Divide both sides by 5

k = -4

What are some characteristics to consider when analyzing groups?
ruslelena [56]

Explanation:

1)  Size-A group is formed with at least two members. Usually, the number of group members in a group ranges from 15 to 20 members. It becomes difficult to manage a large group. Therefore it is said that the more members in a group the more complex it is to manage.

2) Goals-The reason behind the existence of a group is having certain goals to achieve among the group members. A group cannot exist without a goal.

3) Norms-A group must have certain norms for effective interaction with the group members.

4) Structure- Based on the roles as well as the positions held by the members, the group has to have a structure.

5) Roles- The group leader assigns a certain role to every group member which they have to achieve in a given time. 

6) Interaction- Interacting with the members is very crucial for the group as it increases the bond and motivation to work efficiently. The interaction among the members can occur in various ways. It can be a face to face interaction or a telephonic interaction, in writing form or any other manner.

7) Collective Identity- A group is an aggregation of individuals. The individuals are separately called the members and collectively called a group.
