There is a Y axis and a X axis on the graph, they can be our equation. If the plot is (1,3) then, X=1 and Y=3, you can assume that it's X = 3. If the plot is (2,4), then X = 2, Y = 4, just divide/ simplify both sides my 2, and X = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
let's look at the last line :
x³ + 8x - 3 = Ax³ +5Ax + Bx² + 5B + Cx + D
since we find A, B, C, and D by simply comparing the factors of the various terms in x (or constants) in both sides of the equation, we need to combine a few terms on the right hand side (so that we have one term per x exponent grade).
x³ + 8x - 3 = Ax³ + (5A + C)x + Bx² + (5B + D)
by comparing now both sides, to make both sides truly equal, the factors have to be equal.
A = 1 (the same as for x³ on the left hand side).
B = 0 (a we have no x² on the left side).
5A + C = 8 (a 8 is the factor of x in the left side).
5×1 + C = 8
5 + C = 8
C = 3
5B + D = -3 (as the constant term is -3 on the left side).
5×0 + D = -3
D = -3
so, the 4th answer option is correct.
Answer: B. 3x + 1/5
tom's pencil is longer than Ellen's pencil:
5x + 2/5 - (2x + 1/5) = 5x - 2x + 2/5 - 1/5 = 3x + 1/5 (cm)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
V = 5x² + 15x + 2, the volume
h = 5x, the height
Let A = the area of the base.
Because V = Ah, therefore
A*(5x) = 5x² + 15x + 2
