Answer:

5000 X (0.96)^n

$3607

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit decreases at a rate of 6% per year = 100 - 6 = 96%

In year 1, profit would be = 5000 x 0.96 = 4800

In year 2 = 5000 x 0.96^2 =

5000 X (0.96)^n

5000 X (0.96)^8 = $3607

2x^3-x^2+x-2 factorize

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

$(x-1)(2x^2+x+2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorize:

$f(x)=2x^3-x^2+x-2$

<u>Factor Theorem</u>

If f(a) = 0 for a polynomial then (x - a) is a factor of the polynomial f(x).

Substitute x = 1 into the function:

$\implies f(1)=2(1)^3-1^2+1-2=0$

Therefore, (x - 1) is a factor.

As the polynomial is cubic:

$\implies f(x)=(x-1)(ax^2+bx+c)$

Expanding the brackets:

$\implies f(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx-ax^2-bx-c$

$\implies f(x)=ax^3+(b-a)x^2+(c-b)x-c$

Comparing coefficients with the original polynomial:

$\implies ax^3=2x^3 \implies a=2$

$\implies (b-a)x^2=-x^2 \implies b-2=-1 \implies b=1$

$\implies -c=-2 \implies c=2$

Therefore:

$\implies f(x)=(x-1)(2x^2+x+2)$

Cannot be factored any further.

What is 8.038×108 in standard form?

skad [1K]

Okay. I think what you mean by this is 8.038 * 10^8. 10^8 = 100,000,000. When you multiply that by 8.038, you get 803,800,000. The answer is D.
