Use the remainder theorem to show that (x+1) is a factor of f(x)=2x^3-7x^2-5x+4

Mathematics

Nitella [24]2 years ago

well, the remainder theorem says that if the polynomial f(x) has a factor of (x-a), then if we just plug in the "a" in f(x) it'll gives a remainder, assuming (x-a) is indeed a factor, then that remainder must be 0, so if f(a) = 0 then indeed (x-a) is a factor of f(x).  After all that mumble jumble, let's proceed, we have (x+1), that means [ x - (-1) ], so if we plug in -1 in f(x), we should get 0, or f(-1) = 0, let's see if that's true.

\begin{array}{llrll} f(-1)&=&2(-1)^3-7(-1)^2-5(-1)+4\\\\ &&2(-1)-7(1)-5(-1)+4\\\\ &&-2-7+5+4\\\\ &&-9+9\\ &&0&~~\checkmark \end{array}

For this problem you need to put the x values in for x in the equation. For example, put -10 in for x and calculate y, which is g(x)

A photograph of a painting measures 13 units by 17 units. If the scale factor is 1/3, what is the actual size of the painting?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

39 units by 51 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The painting is a scale factor of 1/3, so each side length is 1/3 of the original.  To find the original multiply both side lengths by 3.

13x3 = 39

17 x 3 = 51

A) How many ways can 2 integers from 1,2,...,100 be selected
Anna007 [38]

Answer with explanation:

→Number of Integers from 1 to 100

                                            =100(50 Odd +50 Even)

→50 Even =2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,...............................100

→50 Odd=1,3,,5,7,9,..................................99.

→Sum of Two even integers is even.

→Sum of two odd Integers is odd.

→Sum of an Odd and even Integer is Odd.

(a)

Number of ways of Selecting 2 integers from 50 Integers ,so that their sum is even,

   =Selecting 2 Even integers from 50 Even Integers , and Selecting 2 Odd integers from 50 Odd integers ,as Order of arrangement is not Important, ,

        =_{2}^{50}\textrm{C}+_{2}^{50}\textrm{C}\\\\=\frac{50!}{(50-2)!(2!)}+\frac{50!}{(50-2)!(2!)}\\\\=\frac{50!}{48!\times 2!}+\frac{50!}{48!\times 2!}\\\\=\frac{50 \times 49}{2}+\frac{50 \times 49}{2}\\\\=1225+1225\\\\=2450

=4900 ways

(b)

Number of ways of Selecting 2 integers from 100 Integers ,so that their sum is Odd,

   =Selecting 1 even integer from 50 Integers, and 1 Odd integer from 50 Odd integers, as Order of arrangement is not Important,

        =_{1}^{50}\textrm{C}\times _{1}^{50}\textrm{C}\\\\=\frac{50!}{(50-1)!(1!)} \times \frac{50!}{(50-1)!(1!)}\\\\=\frac{50!}{49!\times 1!}\times \frac{50!}{49!\times 1!}\\\\=50\times 50\\\\=2500

=2500 ways
