Answer:

k = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

if f(x) is divided by (x - h) then f(h) is the remainder

f(x) = 2x³ - 3x² + kx - 1

divided by (x - 1) , so h = 1 , then

2(1)³ - 3(1)² + k(1) - 1 = 2

2 - 3 + k - 1 = 2

- 2 + k = 2 ( add 2 to both sides )

k = 4

Kenny likes to count his money by tiling it on his table as shown. The diameter of a quarter is 24.26 mm. Find the area of the t

ElenaW [278]

First we have to assume that each quarter touched each other. Hence the area of the table not covered by the coins (A) is equal to the total area of the table (At) minus the total area of the coins (Ac). Coins are circle, so $A = \pi r^{2}$ and r =24.26mm. The area of one coin is then 1848.98mm^2. Hence the equation is A = At - xAc where x is the number of coins.
