For the polynomial f(x)=x^3-kx^2+x+6, find the value of k if (x+1) is a factor of f(x).

Answers

Answer 1

The value of k if (x+1) is a factor of f(x) is -4

How to determine the value of k?

The polynomial function is given as:

f(x)=x^3-kx^2+x+6

(x+1) is a factor of f(x)

So, we start by setting x + 1 to 0

x + 1 = 0

Solve for x

x = -1

Substitute x = -1 in f(x)=x^3-kx^2+x+6 and set the equation to 0

(-1)^3-k(-1)^2+(-1)+6 = 0

Evaluate the exponents

-1 - k - 1 + 6 = 0

Evaluate the like terms

k + 4 = 0

Solve for k

k = -4

Hence, the value of k if (x+1) is a factor of f(x) is -4

Erin’s car uses 6 gallons of gas for every 138 miles she drives. Which equation could be used to find how many gallons,g, Erin needs to drive 92 miles

Answers

Answer:

g = 6 / 3 x 2

Step-by-step explanation:

g = 6 / 3 x 2 because 92 / 2 = 46. 46 x 3 = 138. so / 3 = 46 x 2 = 92

Thus, Erin required 4 gallons of gas to drive 92 miles.

What is proportionality?

proportionality is defined as between two or more sets of values, and how these values are related to each other in the sense that are they directly proportional or inversely proportional to each other.

Let the gallon used by Erin bey and distance traveled be x
Now fuel consumed by Erin is directly proportional to the distance traveled i.e.
y ∝ x
y = ax   - - - - - - (1)
where is the constant

Now put y = 6 and x = 138
6 = a * 138
a = 6/138
a = 0.043
Now put a in equation 1


y = 0.043x

The above expression is a required expression that implies how mush gallons of gas Erin used to travel a certain distance.

Erin needs to drive 92 miles,
Put x = 92 in above expression
y = 0.043 * 92
y = 4 gallon

Thus, Erin required 4 gallons of gas to drive 92 miles.

An airport parking lot charges a basic fee of $2 plus $1 per half-hour parked. what is the total charge from parking in the lot for 72 hours? a. $144 b. $146 c. $74 d. $72 please select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d

Answers

Using a linear function, the total charge from parking in the lot for 72 hours is of:

b. $146.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Both the basic fee, which is the y-intercept, and the hourly fee, which is the slope, are of $2, hence the cost of parking x hours is given by:

C(x) = 2x + 2

Hence the cost for parking 72 hours is:

C(72) = 2 x 72 + 2 = 2 x 73 = $146.

Which means that option b is correct.

The exponential model A = 999.8 0.002t describes the population, A, of a country' in millions, t years after 2003. Use
the model to determine when the population of the country will be 1051 million?

Answers

The population of the country will be 1051 million in 2014

How to model the population of the country?

The exponential model that describes the population of a country' in millions, t years after 2003 is given as:

A = 999.8 e0.002t

Rewrite the function properly as:

A = 999.8 * e^(0.002t)

When the population of the country is 1051 million, it means that:

A = 1051

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have:

1051 =  999.8 * e^(0.002t)

Divide both sides by 999.8

1.0512 = e^(0.002t)

Take the natural logarithm of both sides of the equation

ln(1.0512) = ln(e^(0.002t)

Rewrite the equation as:

ln(e^(0.002t) = log(1.0512)

This gives

0.002t = log(1.0512)

Evaluate the logarithmic expression

0.002t = 0.0216

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.002

t = 0.0216/0.002

Evaluate the quotient

t = 10.8

Approximate 10.8 as 11

t = 11

11 years from 2003 is 2014

Hence, the population of the country will be 1051 million in 2014

Alice and Bob are currently 1000 feet apart and are both running directly
toward each other at a constant speed of 10 feet per second. A bird starts in the same
position as Alice and flies directly toward Bob at a speed of 20 feet per second. When the
bird reaches Bob, it turns around immediately and starts flying toward Alice at the same
speed, turning around immediately when it reaches Alice, and repeating this procedure until
Alice and Bob meet. When Alice and Bob finally meet, what is the total distance that the
bird has flown, in feet?

Answers

The distance the bird has flown by the time Alice and Bob meet is 40 feet.

Given that the distance between Alice and Bob is 1000 feet and their running speed is 10 feet per second and the speed of bird is 20 feet per second.

Distance equals speed multiplied by time.

Distance between Alice and Bob=1000 feet.

Distance between the bird and Bob=1000 feet.

Speed of Alice and Bob=10 feet per second.

The combined speed of Alice and Bob=20 feet per second.

Since the two are running directly toward each other the distance each will cover at the meeting point is 50 feet (1000/20)

The time covered at the meeting point=20 second (1000/50)

Speed of the bird=20 feet per second.

The distance covered by the bird towards Bob at their meeting point is 40 feet(20 feet*20 seconds).

Hence the distance the bird has flown by the time Alice and Bob meet is 40 feet.

Answers

The events are not mutually exclusive because P(A or B) is not equal to P(A) + P(B)

Why are the events not mutually exclusive?

The probability values are given as:

P(A) = 0.3

P(B) = 0.6

P(A or B) = 0.8

For mutually exclusive events, we have:

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

Substitute the known values in the above equation

P(A or B) = 0.3 + 0.6

Evaluate the sum

P(A or B) = 0.9

Use the wave equation to find the speed of a wave given by y(x,t) = (9. 13 mm) sin[(6. 65 m-1)x - (5. 52 s-1)t]

Answers

The speed of the wave is 0.83 m/s.

According to the statement

we have given that the equation and we have to find the speed of the wave.

So, For this purpose, we know that the

The given equation is y(x,t) = (9. 13 mm) sin [(6. 65 m^-1)x - (5. 52 s^-1)t]

Then we have to find the speed of the wave

So, Comparing y(x,t) = (9. 13 mm) sin[(6. 65 m-1)x - (5. 52 s-1)t]

to the general expression y(x,t)=y m sin(kx−ωt),

Because the general expression is y(x,t)=y m sin(kx−ωt)

we see that k= 6.65 m −1 and ω= 5.52 rad/s.

The speed of the wave is

v=ω/k=(5.52 rad/s)/(6.65 m )= 0.83 m/s

So, The speed of the wave is 0.83 m/s.

How to do the sum in three different ways on a number line?

Here we have the sum:

The first way of doing the sum in a number line is starting on the first number, which is 8.

Then, we move 3 units to the left, to the 5.Then, we move other 2 units to the left, to the 3.

Now, we also can think the sum as:

(-3) + 8 + (-2)

So now we can start at the value -3, then move 8 units to the right, and then 2 units to the left.

Or think the sum as:

(-2) + (-3) + 8

So we start at -2, then we move 3 units to the left, and finally 8 units to the right.

Set the equation of the function to 0

(x - √93987)(x + √93987) = 0

Split the factors of the above function equation as follows

x - √93987 = 0 and x + √93987 = 0
