Answer:

<h2><em><u>124</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Given</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

Perimeter of fencing bought by Claire for rectangular garden

= 2(4x - 4 + x - 4)

= 2 ( 5x - 8 )

= 10x - 16

Perimeter of fencing bought by Claire for triangular garden

= (3x - 1) + (3x - 1) + 3x

= 3x + 3x + 3x - 1 - 1

= 9x - 2

<em><u>Since</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

The two gardens have same perimeter,

<em><u>By</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>problem</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u> </u></em>

10x - 16 = 9x - 2

=> 10x - 9x = 16 - 2

=> x = 14

<em><u>Hence</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

<em><u>Feet</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>fencing</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>bought</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>by</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>her</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

Putting value in any of the perimeters of the gardens,

10x - 16

= 10(14) - 16

= 140 - 16

= <em><u>124 feet (Ans)</u></em>

Is (x + 7) a factor of f(x) = x3 − 3x2 + 2x − 8? Use either the remainder theorem or the factor theorem to explain your reasonin
guajiro [1.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x + 7 is a factor of f(x), then f(-7) = 0.

f(-7) = (-7)³ − 3(-7)² + 2(-7) − 8

f(-7) = -343 − 147 − 14 − 8

f(-7) = -512

x + 7 is not a factor of f(x).

If f(x) = 3x + 2 and g(x) = x^2+ 1, which expression is equivalent to (fºg)(x)?​
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

3x^2+5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x + 2 ; g(x) = x^2+ 1

(fºg)(x) = 3(x^2+ 1)+2

(fºg)(x) = 3x^2+3+2

(fºg)(x) = 3x^2+5
