(2x² - 5x-3)/ (x-3) DIvide the polynomials

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anika [276]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{(2x² - 5x-3)}{(x - 3)}

Factor out 2x² - 5x-3

\frac{(2x + 1)(x - 3)}{x - 3}

divide x - 3 by x - 3

=> 2x + 1

<em><u>Or another step</u></em>

Step by Step Solution

STEP

1

:

Equation at the end of step 1

STEP

2

:

2x² - 5x - 3/ x - 3

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1 Factoring 2x² - 5x - 3

The first term is, 2x² its coefficient is 2 .

The middle term is, -5x its coefficient is -5 .

The last term, "the constant", is -3

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • -3 = -6

Step-2 : Find two factors of -6 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .

-6 + 1 = -5 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -6 and 1

2x² - 6x + 1x - 3

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

2x • (x-3)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

1 • (x-3)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(2x+1) • (x-3)

Which is the desired factorization

Canceling Out :

2.2 Cancel out (x-3) which appears on both sides of the fraction line.

Final result :

2x + 1

How do you find the equation for the line that is parallel to the line y=2/3x-7 and passes through the point (3,-1)
Debora [2.8K]

parallel lines have the same exact slope hmmm what's the slope of y = 2/3x-7 anyway? well, low and behold, is already in slope-intercept form, therefore

\bf \stackrel{\textit{slope-intercept form}}{y=\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{2}{3}}x-7}.


so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 2/3, and runs through 3, -1.


\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})~\hspace{7em} slope =  m\implies \cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-1)=\cfrac{2}{3}(x-3) \\\\\\ y+1=\cfrac{2}{3}x-2\implies y=\cfrac{2}{3}x-3

The following table shows the first segment of a five-year amortization schedule.
ELEN [110]

After one year of payments, the amount need to be paid to interest is $1100.42 if the first segment of a five-year amortization schedule is a 5-year amortization schedule option (a) is correct.

<h3>What is a loan amortization schedule?</h3>

It is defined as the systematic way of representation of loan payments according to the time in which the principal amount and interest mentioned in a list manner.

We have a table given that showing a first segment of a five-year amortization schedule that has a 5-year amortization schedule and the amount of interest paid for months 1 through 12.

As the loan amount is not mentioned in the question, we are assuming the loan amount is $1184.6

Therefore, loan amount = $1184.6

The outstanding amount at the end of one year, which is 12 months, is shown in the table as $84.18

After one year of payments, the amount need to be paid to interest:

= Loan amount - Outstanding amount after 12 months

= 1184.6 - 84.18

= $1100.425

Thus, after one year of payments, the amount need to be paid to interest is $1100.42 if the first segment of a five-year amortization schedule is a 5-year amortization schedule option (a) is correct.
