Hello haohaoxNienie!

\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}

Show that p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6 is divisible by x - 1.

\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Explanation} \downarrow}

To show that p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6 is divisible by x - 1, we must divide the polynomial by x - 1. If we get the remainder as 0, then we can say that p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6 is divisible by x - 1.

So, let's do the division (steps in the attached picture).

We got the remainder as 0. So, yes p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6 is divisible by x - 1.

<h3><u>More steps :-</u></h3>

x² - 5x + 6

= <u>(x - 3) (x - 2)</u> [use the splitting the middle term method].

So, the zeroes are,

(x - 3)

x - 3 = 0

<u>x = 3 ⇨ 1</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>zero.</u>

(x - 2)

x - 2 = 0

<u>x = 2 ⇨ 2nd zero.</u>

Now, use the values of x on the equation. If we get 0 as the solution of the equation then we can prove that p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6 is divisible by x - 1.

p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6

p(3) = 3³ - 6(3)² + 11 (3) - 6

p(3) = 27 - 54 + 33 - 6

<u>p(3) = 0.</u>

p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6

p(2) = 2³ - 6(2)² + 11 (2) - 6

p(2) = 8 - 24 + 22 - 6

<u>p(2) = 0</u>

Since we got the solutions as 0 we can say that p(x) = x³ - 6x² + 11x - 6 is divisible by x - 1.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = -2 and passes through the point (5.4)?
Leno4ka [110]

Lines parallel to each others only occur when two slopes of equations are same. The definition of parallel lines is:

\large \boxed{m_1 =  m_2}

We are given the equation of a line which is x = -2. For x = a, the equation forms a verical line and has an undefined slope. These below are basic that you may need to learn when learning about the line graph:

  • y = a —> horizontal line; slope is 0.
  • x = a —> vertical line; slope is undefined.
  • For y = a, any a-values would have same x-values. For example, if we are given y = 2 then any domains or x-values can have the range of 2.
  • For x = a, any a-values would have same y-values or range.

Back to the question. We want to find the equation of a line that is <u>p</u><u>a</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>l</u><u>l</u><u>e</u><u>l</u> to the line x = -2 and <u>p</u><u>a</u><u>s</u><u>s</u><u>e</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>t</u><u>h</u><u>r</u><u>o</u><u>u</u><u>g</u><u>h</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>5</u><u>,</u><u>4</u><u>)</u> point. Recall the definition of parallel line that both slopes of equations must equal. Since x = a for any a-values would give an undefined slope. That means our parallel would be x = b.

Because the line passes through (5,4) - for any a-values from x = a would give out the set of all real numbers for range. Therefore the equation of a line is x = 5.

Answer

  • The equation of a line that is parallel to x = -2 and passes through (5,4) is x = 5.

I hope this helps! If you have any doubts or questions, don't hestitate to ask in comment! Good luck on your assignment and have a great day!
