Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
This was originally a third degree polynomial:
, to be exact.
When you divide by -3, you are basically trying to determine if x + 3 is a zero of that third degree polynomial. The quotient is always one degree lesser than the polynomial you started with, and if there is no remainder, then x + 3 is a zero of the polynomial and you could go on to factor the second degree polynoial completely to get all 3 solutions. To perform the synthetic division, you always first bring down the number in the first position, in our case a 2. Then multiply that 2 by -3 to get -6.
-3| 2 4 -4 6
-6
2 -2
So far this is what we have done. Now we multiply the -3 by the -2 and put that up under the -4 and add:
-3| 2 4 -4 6
-6 6
2 -2 2
Now we multiply the -3 by the 2 to get -6 and put that up under the 6 and add:
-3| 2 4 -4 6
-6 6 -6
2 -2 2 0
That last row gives us the depressed polynomial, which as stated earlier here, is one degree less than what you started with:
Answer:
a). y = 0.25x + 15
b). x = 480 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
(a). Let the equation of the linear function passing through a point (x', y') is,
y - y' = m(x - x')
'm' = slope of the line
b = y-intercept
Two points lying on the linear function will be (200, 65) and (250, 77.5).
Slope of the line 'm' =
m =
=
= 0.25
Therefore, equation of the line passing through (200, 65) and slope 0.25 will be,
y - 65 = 0.25(x - 200)
y - 65 = 0.25x - 50
y = 0.25x + 15
(b). For y = $135 we have to calculate the number of cups of coffee produced.
135 = 0.25x + 15
0.25x = 135 - 15
0.25x = 120
x = 480 cups
Therefore, 480 cups of coffee will be produced.
