Answer:

k = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

if f(x) is divided by (x - h) then f(h) is the remainder

f(x) = 2x³ - 3x² + kx - 1

divided by (x - 1) , so h = 1 , then

2(1)³ - 3(1)² + k(1) - 1 = 2

2 - 3 + k - 1 = 2

- 2 + k = 2 ( add 2 to both sides )

k = 4

The quadratic equation ax^2+32x+c=0 has exactly one solution. If a+c=130, and a>c, find the ordered pair (a,c).

vitfil [10]

Ie 32^2 - 4ac=0 so ac=256 and a+c=130
So, that means:2 equations ac=256 a+c=130 ie c=130-a
So,a(130-a)=256 so 130a -a^2=256 ie a^2-130a +256=0 (a-2)(a-128)=0
Finally,giving a= 2 or a=128 so, a=2 c=128 or a=128 c=2
Since, a>c , a=128 and c=2 ie (128,2)

Which is the solution to (8.5 x 103)(2 x 105) expressed in scientific notation?

kenny6666 [7]

We have been given an expression $(8.5\times 10^3)(2\times 10^5)$ . We are asked to find the solution to our given expression expressed as scientific notation.

Let us simplify our given expression.

Using exponent property $a^m\cdot a^n=a^{m+n}$ , we will get:

$8.5\times 2\times 10^3\times 10^5$

$17\times 10^{3+5}$

$17\times 10^{8}$

Now to write our answer in scientific notation, we need our 1st multiple between 1 and 10. So we will rewrite our expression as:

$1.7\times 10\times 10^{8}$

$1.7\times 10^{1+8}$

$1.7\times 10^{9}$

Therefore, our required solution would be $1.7\times 10^{9}$ .
