Look at the picture......
So it's best in this case to separate both shapes so you have a rectangle and a triangle so to solve the area of a rectangle you do
The following ( picture )
So I hope this helps
Answer:
a = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
If x = h is a zero of a polynomial then f(h) = 0, thus
p(-
) = 27( -
)³ - a(-
) - (-
) + 3 = 0, that is
27 (-
) -
a +
+ 3 = 0
- 1 -
a +
= 0 ( multiply through by 9 to clear the fractions )
- 9 - a + 30 = 0
- a + 21 = 0 ( subtract 21 from both sides )
- a = - 21 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
a = 21
