Answer: No, x+3 is not a factor of 2x^2-2x-12
========================================================
Explanation:
Let p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
If we divide p(x) over (x-k), then the remainder is p(k). I'm using the remainder theorem. A special case of the remainder theorem is that if p(k) = 0, then x-k is a factor of p(x).
Compare x+3 = x-(-3) to x-k to find that k = -3.
Plug x = -3 into the function
p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
p(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - 2(-3) - 12
p(-3) = 12
We don't get 0 as a result so x+3 is not a factor of p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
----------------------------------------
Let's see what happens when we factor p(x)
2x^2 - 2x - 12
2(x^2 - x - 6)
2(x - 3)(x + 2)
The factors here are 2, x-3 and x+2
Answer: The answer is F.
Step-by-step explanation: It’s F because the number would be multiplied equally because all of the number are multiplied by 2. The rest of them either have variables or variables with numbers in them, which looks kind of funky, so F is the answer. I hope you get it right :). Sorry, if I was late for the reply and if you already figured it out… :(.
I'm not sure about what exactly your teacher is looking for, but the actual congruency conjecture you would use is:
(angle symbol) 1 (congruency symbol) (angle symbol) 8 - Because they are alternate exterior angles
Answer:
If is positive, then the parabola opens upward, so the function decreases on and increases on . But if is negative, then just the reverse
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
