Factorize of 2a³-a²+a-2
1 answer:
<h3>Answer: (a - 1)(2a² + a + 2)</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Use the rational root theorem to determine this list of possible rational roots: 1, -1, 1/2, -1/2
Plug each possible root one at a time into the original expression given. If the simplified result is 0, then that possible root is an actual root.
If we tried say a = -1, then,
2a³-a²+a-2 = 2(-1)³-(-1)²+(-1)-2 = -6
The result is not zero, so a = -1 is not an actual root.
But if we tried say a = 1, then,
2a³-a²+a-2 = 2(1)³-1²+1-2 = 0
We get 0 so a = 1 is an actual root. I'll let you try the other values, but you should find that a = 1 is the only rational root.
Since a = 1 is a root, this makes (a-1) to be a factor.
From here, use either synthetic or polynomial long division to determine the other factor. Refer to the diagram below for each method.
Regardless of which method you pick, the quotient is 2a² + a + 2 which is the other factor needed. The remainder of 0 tells us we have (a-1) as a factor. For more information, check out the remainder theorem.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost function has 3 branches,
- Consumptions less than 500
- Consumptions less than 1000
- consumptions above a 1000
So the first branch the consumer pays 6 dollars plus .10cents for any additional kWh (k)
In the second, they pay the same as the first up to 500kWh, and after that they pay 0.11 for the additional kWh above 500: (k-500) but bellow 1000
In the third branch, for consumptions above 1000, they pay the fix amount, plus .10 for the first 500 () , .11 for the additional 500 (
) , and finally 0.15 for consumptions above 1000:
