Answer:
(x + 8)(x - 2)(4x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that x = - 8 is a zero then (x + 8) is a factor
Divide f(x) by (x + 8) using Synthetic division
- 8 | 4 23 - 70 16
↓ - 32 72 - 16
---------------------------------
4 - 9 2 0
Quotient = 4x² - 9x + 2 = (x - 2)(4x - 1)
Thus
f(x) = (x + 8)(x - 2)(4x - 1)
My graphing calculator says g(4) = f(2).
The 4th selection, x=4, is appropriate.
Answer:
(a) So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.
(b) Checkpoint 5 is 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Solution for (a):</u>
<u />
Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.
The top of a hill rises 583 feet above Checkpoint 2.
The altitude of the top of the hill = -218 + 583 = 365
So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.
<u>Solution for (b):</u>
<u />
Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.
Checkpoint 5 is -33 feet above sea level.
Checkpoint 5 is -33 - -218 = 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.
It is like if you have two number lines. Then one has a pointer at 0, and the other one has the pointer facing at 2 then it will be lesser because the first one has 0 or if it turned around it would be greater. If it is equal then it would have the same number, but watch out if it is a negative number.
The total is 275 because 100% divided by 20% is 5 and if 20%= 55 then that means that 55 goes into 100% 5 times so you multiply 55 by 5 to get 275. Hope I helped! Please rate me as the brainliest!
