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.  :/

What is the slope of the line shown?

Answers

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is one half, because every time x increases by 1, y increases by 1/2. You can find the slope using the rise over run strategy. You choose a point, and you also choose the point to the right of the point you first chose. You then count how many units up and to the right the right point is.

Its Up/Right.

This version of rise over run however only works when the line is going up.

Explain why a sample of 30 dentists from a large city taken to estimate the median income of all residents of that large city is not representative

Answers

Answer: Because all individuals in the sample have the same job, so the sample is biased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ignoring the fact that 30 is a small sample for a large city, we already know that all the people in the sample has the same profession.

Now, we can expect that two dentists win have around the same income, but not all the residents in the city are dentists

A lot of them work in fast food, others may be lawyers, others may be freelancers.

We have a lot of jobs where the income does not coincide with the average income of a dentist, so with the sample of 30 dentists we are not actually representing all the other possible jobs that there are in the city.

If we want a sample that represents the income of all the residents, we should have a random sample (so the sample is not biased, like in this case).

15 (a). The longer leg is [tex]7\sqrt{3}[/tex]  units long

15 (b). The hypotenuse is [tex]14[/tex] units long

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

Explanations:

For a 45 degree right triangle, aka 45-45-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is equal to sqrt(2) times the short leg. Algebraically we can say

[tex]y = x\sqrt{2}[/tex] where x is the leg and y is the hypotenuse

Let's solve for x

[tex]y = x\sqrt{2}\\\\x\sqrt{2} = y\\\\x = \frac{y}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{2}} \ \text{rationalizing denominator}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\[/tex]

Now plug in the given hypotenuse y = 42, this leads to,

[tex]x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42}{2}\sqrt{2}\\\\x = 21\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex]

---------------------------

For a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is double that of the short leg. So the hypotenuse is 2*7 = 14.

The longer leg is equal to sqrt(3) times the short leg. The longer leg is [tex]7\sqrt{3}[/tex]

In a group of 42 students, 9 study both Art and Biology.
10 study Biology but not Art.
7 study neither subject.
Given that a randomly selected student studies Art, what is the probability the student studies Art and Biology?

Answers

Answer:

The probability the student studies Art and Biology is 0.2143.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

A = a students studies Art

B = a students studies Biology

The information provided is:

N = 42

n (A ∩ B) = 9

n (A' ∩ B) = 10

n (A' ∩ B') = 7

Then the number of students who study Art but not Biology is:

n (A ∩ B') = N - n (A ∩ B) - n (A' ∩ B) - n (A' ∩ B')

               [tex]=42-10-7-9\\\\=16[/tex]

The number of students who study Art but not Biology is 16.

Compute the probability the student studies Art and Biology as follows:

[tex]P(A\cap B)=\frac{n (A\cap B)}{N}[/tex]

               [tex]=\frac{9}{42}\\\\=\frac{3}{14}\\\\=0.2143[/tex]

Thus, the probability the student studies Art and Biology is 0.2143.

Two numbers add to 200. The first is 20 less than the second. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the first number x.

We can write an equation representing the problem using x:

x+x+20=200 (because the second number is 20 more than the first, or x)

Combine like terms: 2x+20=200

Subtract 20 from each side of the equation: 2x=180

Divide by 2: x=90

The first number is 90, the second number is 110.

Harry is half his brother's age. His brother is 28 years younger than their Aunt Jenny, who is five years older than Harry and his brother's dad. their dad is 31 years old. how old is Harry?

Answers

Answer:

4 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Harry = H

Brother = B

Aunty = A

Dad = B

H = ½ B

B = A - 28

A = D + 5

D = 31

A = 31 + 5 = 36

B = 36 -28 = 8 years old

H = ½ . 8 = 4 years old

Dos motos, A y B, toman la salida en una carrera de 90 km. La moto A realiza el recorrido con una velocidad media inferior en 20 km/h a la de la moto B, con lo que llega a la meta 3 minutos después que B. Calcula la velocidad de cada moto.

Answers

Answer:

motorcycle A: 180 km/h

motorcycle B: 200 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we need to write a system of equations for A and B, using the equation:

distance = speed * time

The speed of A is 20 less than the speed of B, so:

speedA = speedB - 20

And the time A traveled is 3 minutes (0.05 hours) more than B's time, so:

timeA = timeB + 0.05

Then, using the distance equation, we have that:

distanceB = speedB * timeB

90 = speedB * timeB

distanceA = speedA * timeA

90 = (speedB - 20) * (timeB + 0.05)

90 = speedB * timeB + 0.05 * speedB - 20*timeB - 1

90 = 90 + 0.05 * speedB - 20*timeB - 1

20*timeB = 0.05 * speedB - 1

timeB = (speedB - 20)/400

using this timeB in the distance equation, we have:

90 = speedB * (speedB - 20)/400

90 * 400 = speedB^2 - 20*speedB

speedB^2 - 20*speedB - 36000 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation, we have speedB = 200 km/h

And the speedA is:

speedA = speedB - 20 = 200 - 20 = 180 km/h
