Answer:

52 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we drop a perpendicular line from point C to AD and call the point ( on AD) E we have a right triangle CED.

Now CE = 6 and as the whole figure is symmetrical about the dashed line,

ED = (26 - 10)/2

= 8.

So by Pythagoras:

CD^2 = 6^2 + 8^2 = 100

CD = 10.

So, as AB = CD,

the perimeter = 10 + 26 + 2(8)

= 52.

Select all polynomials that have (x-3) as a factor.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 3 into each polynomial and see if the value of the polynomial is zero. If it is zero then x-3 is a factor.

Try number 1:

a(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 4x + 3

a(3) = 3^3 - 2(3)^2 - 4(3) + 3

= 27 - 2(9) - 12 + 3

= 27 - 18 - 12 + 3

= 9 - 18 - 9

= 27 - 27

= 0

So a(x) has (x-3) is a factor of a(x)

The other 3 polynomials are solved in the same way.

Answer:

a. $\frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a. $\textbf{3} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{+} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{4}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $a\frac{x}{y} = a + \frac{x}{y}$

$\therefore 3 + 1\frac{1}{4} = 3 + 1 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= 4 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= \frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\textbf{2} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{-} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{5}}{\textbf{8}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $-c\frac{a}{b} = - c - \frac{a}{b}$

$\therefore 2 - 1\frac{5}{8} = 2 - 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= \frac{8 - 5}{8}$

$= \frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Hence, the answer.
