Answer: 21/5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is false.
The f(3x) means you are multiplying the input 'x' by 3 before plugging into the equation.
3f(x) means you are going to multiply your answer (output) by 3 after you've plugged the input value in and gotten the output.
Answer:
x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph touches the x-axis at x = 1, its factor would be (x - 1)
Answer:
a = 1 b = -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the quotient when you divide x^4+x^3+ax+b by x^2 + 1 is
x^2 + ax + b then expanding we have:
(x^2 + 1)(x^2 + ax + b)
= x^4 + ax^3 + bx^2 + x^2 + ax + b
= x^4 + ax^3 + (b + 1)x^2 + ax + b Comparing this with the original expression:
x^4 + x^3 + 0 x^2 + ax + b Comparing coefficients:
a = 1 and b+ 1 = 0 so b = -1.
