The polynomial 6x2 + x − 15 has a factor of 2x − 3. What is the other factor?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to know what you have to multiply by 5 to get a product of 70, you would divide 70 by 5 to get that other number. Because 70 divided by 5 is 14, you know that the other number is 14. It's the same when you have one factor of a polynomial and want to know the other. You divide your polynomial by the one factor to get to the other factor, because when you multiply them together, you get back the polynomial you started with. Like when we found that 70 / 5 = 14, we know that when we multiply 14 by 5 we'll get the 70 we started with.

Long division of polynomials will be difficult to illustrate within this forum, but I'll do my best. What we want to do is divide [tex]6x^2+x-15[/tex] by 2x - 3:

          __________

2x - 3 | [tex]6x^2+x-15[/tex]

First divide the 6 x-squared by the 2x (forget about the rest of what's inside the box for now, and also forget about the -3 for now. We'll deal with them later).  2x goes into 6 x-squared 3x times, because 2x * 3x = 6x-squared, right? So the 3x goes above the 6x-squared:

           3x_______

2x - 3 | [tex]6x^2+x-15[/tex]

Now we multiply the 3x by the 2x and put that product under the 6x-squared. The product is 6x-squared (which will always be the case in division that they will subtract each other away. That's why we do this!)Then multiply the 3x by the -3 which is -9 and put that under the "+x" term:

           3x________

2x - 3 | [tex]6x^2+x-15[/tex]

           6x^2-9x        

At this point we change the signs and have

            3x                

2x - 3   | 6x^2 + x - 15

          -  6x^2 +9x

And then we add and bring down the -15:

           3x                  

2x - 3 | 6x^2  + x - 15

         - 6x^2 + 9x

                       10x - 15

Now do the division process again, this time dividing 10x by 2x (again the -3 will wait). 10x divided by 2x is 5 (because 2x * 5 = 10x, right?). The 5 goes above the +x on top:

           3x    +   5      

2x - 3 | 6x^2 +  x - 15

        -  6x^2 + 9x

                       10x - 15

Now we wwill multiply the 5 by both the 2x and the -3 and subtract:

           3x     +  5    

2x - 3 | 6x^2 +  x - 15

         - 6x^2 + 9x

                       10x - 15

                     - 10x + 15

Notice that when we subtracted, the 10x changed from + to -, and the -15 changed to a positive. The remainder is 0.

That tells us that the other factor of the polynomial is 3x + 5. You could also have done synthetic division, but it would be more difficult than this to illustrate because you would be dividing by 3/2.  :/

Please help me with this it's really important

A 40-question test has 108 possible points. There are m 4-point questions and n 2-point questions. How many of each type of questions are on the test?

Answers

Answer:

There are 14 4-point questions and 26 2-point questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

m  = number of 4-point questions

n = number of  2-point questions

m+n =40

4m + 2n =108

You can solve system by elimination:

Multiply the 1st equation by -4 and keep the 2nd equation the same.

−4(m+n=40) → -4m -4n= -160

                       4m+2n=108 add them up

-2n = -52 divide both sides by -2

n = 26

plug it back in to solve for m

m + n = 40 →m + 26 =40 subtract 26 to both sides

m = 14

Answer:

m=14, n=26

In right triangle XYZ, ∠Z is a right angle, m∠Y=16∘, and XZ=7. sin16∘≈0.276 cos16∘≈0.961 tan16∘≈0.287. What is the measurement of YZ?

Answers

Answer: 24.4

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets review a bit about sine, cosine, and tangent.

Look at attachment below

Okay so we have the opposite side of the triangle and are trying to find the length of the adjacent side. The only trig expression that contains both opposite and adjacent is tangent. The equation goes

tanX = opposite(XZ)/adjacent (YZ)

we know what X is X = 16

and we know what opposite is opposite = 7

so now the equation looks like

tan16 = 7/adjacent

and in the question it says that tan16 = 0.287 so lets plug that in

0.287 = 7/adjacent

0.287adjacent = 7

adjacent = 7/0.287

adjacent = 24.4

YZ = 24.4

7. m∠1 = m∠2   [tex]{}[/tex]                        7. Transitive property

The missing statement in step 3 is therefore; m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°

Details of the solution:

Given that ∠1 is complementary to ∠2, we have;

∠1 + ∠2 = 90°

Similarly, by definition of complementary angles, we have;

∠2 + ∠3 = 90°

Which gives;

∠3 + ∠2 = 90°

Therefore;

∠1 + ∠2 = ∠3 + ∠2

Subtracting ∠2 from both sides (subtraction property of equality), gives;

∠1 + ∠2 - ∠2 = ∠3 + ∠2 - ∠2

∠1 + 0 = ∠3 + 0

Which gives;

∠1 = ∠3

 [tex]2. m\angle H+m\angle J +m\angle K =180^{\circ}[/tex]

Reason: the sum of all interior angles of any triangle is equal to 180º.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Organizing

Statement  1. m∠H = 30°, m∠J = 50°, m∠P = 50°, m∠N = 100° 1. Reason: given

2) Since the sum of all internal angles of any triangle is equal to 180º, just like the formula. N the number of sides of a triangle:

[tex]S_{i}=180^{\circ}(n-2)\rightarrow 180(3-2) \therefore S_{i}=180^{\circ}[/tex]

3) We can also say

[tex]m\angle K=180^{\circ}-(m\angle H+m\angle J)\\m\angle K=180^{\circ}-\left ( 30^{\circ}+50^{\circ} \right )\\m\angle K=100^{\circ}[/tex]

Similarly to the other triangle:

[tex]m\angle L=180^{\circ}-(m\angle N+m\angle P)\\m\angle L=180^{\circ}-\left ( 100^{\circ}+50^{\circ} \right )\\m\angle L=30^{\circ}[/tex]

4) Hence,

[tex]2. m\angle H+m\angle J +m\angle K =180[/tex]

Answer is   6

=========================================================

How to get this answer:

Locate 6 on the x axis. Draw an arrow down until you reach the f(x) curve, then move to the left until you reach the y axis. We started at x = 6 and ended on y = -6. See the diagram below for this process in action.

So basically f(6) = -6. Visually the point (6,-6) is on the f(x) curve.

Through similar steps, we see that g(5) = -5

Therefore,

4*f(6) - 6*g(5) = 4*(-6) - 6*(-5) = -24 + 30 = 6

Henry decides to start an investment savings account. He initially deposits $500 dollars to the bank. Every year, Henry's bank account increases by 15%. Assume x represents the number of years and y is the amount of money in the bank. Which function models this situation below?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y= 500(1+0.15)^x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved using concept of compound interest

In compound interest

if p is the principal amount

and r is the interest rate

then value of principal amount(A) after n years time is given by

A = p(1+r)^n

=>[tex]A = p(1+r)^n[/tex]

__________________________________

in the problem

in place of n we have x years

y is the amount which is the total amount after n years

p is the principal money deposited = $500

r = 15%

substituting these value in the formula for amount after n years we have

[tex]y= 500(1+15/100)^x\\y= 500(1+0.15)^x[/tex]

Thus, function modeling the situation is [tex]y= 500(1+0.15)^x[/tex]

2) 48.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Right angled triangle ODC and right angled triangle OAB are similar because AB//DC. The two triangles have the same proportion and are equiangular (having equal angles) but have different lengths.

Let OB = x, OC = OB + BC = x + 8

Therefore:

[tex]\frac{OC}{OB}=\frac{DC}{AB} \\\frac{x+8}{x}=\frac{15}{6}\\15x=6(x+8)\\15x=6x+48\\15x-6x=48\\9x=48\\x=5.3\ cm[/tex]

The height of triangle ODC = OC =  x + 8 = 5.3 + 8 = 13.3 cm

2) Using Pythagoras theorem:

OD² = OC² + DC²

OD² = 13.3² + 15²

OD² = 401.89

OD = √401.89 = 20 cm

2) perimeter of triangle ODC = OD + OC + DC = 20 + 13.3 + 15 =48.3 cm
