Given a polynomial f(x), if (x + 2) is a factor, what else must be true?
1 answer:
Given:
(x+2) is a factor of polynomial f(x).
To find:
The correct statement.
Solution:
If (x-c) is a factor of polynomial f(x), then c is a zero of the polynomial and f(c)=0.
We have, (x+2) is a factor of polynomial f(x).
On comparing (x-c) and (x+2), we get
It means, -2 is a zero of the polynomial f(x) and the value the polynomial at x=-2 is 0, i.e.,
Therefore, the correct option is d.

Answer:
y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: y varies directly with x, x=4 when y=20
To find: y when x = 3
Solution:
As y varies directly as x, it means that as x increases, y also increases by the same factor.
As y varies directly with x,
Here, k is a constant
As x = 4 when y = 20,
Put x = 3
Using the features, a piece-wise function is defined, and the graph is sketched at the end of this answer.
A piece-wise function is a function that has <u>multiple definitions</u>, depending on the value of the input.
He starts at 0 feet, and reaches a maximum elevation of 800 feet in 30 minutes, with a steady(linear) increase thus, for the first 30 minutes, the definition is:
For the next 5 minutes, he stops to rest, at the maximum elevation of 800 feet, thus, the definition is:
For the final 20 minutes, he descends 800 meters, at a linear rate, thus:
Using these definitions, the graph is sketched at the end of this answer.
