The polynomial 3x² + mx? - nx - 10 has a factor of (x - 1). When divided by x + 2, the remainder is 36. What are
the values of m and n?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]m = 12[/tex]

[tex]n =3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P(x) = x^3 + mx^2 - nx - 10[/tex]

Required

The values of m and n

For x - 1;

we have:

[tex]x - 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x=1[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(1) = (1)^3 + m*(1)^2 - n*(1) - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 1 + m*1 - n*1 - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 1 + m - n - 10[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]P(1) = m - n + 1 - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = m - n -9[/tex]

Because x - 1 divides the polynomial, then P(1) = 0;

So, we have:

[tex]m - n -9 = 0[/tex]

Add 9 to both sides

[tex]m - n = 9[/tex] --- (1)

For x + 2;

we have:

[tex]x + 2 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = -2[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(-2) = (-2)^3 + m*(-2)^2 - n*(-2) - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(-2) = -8 + 4m + 2n - 10[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]P(-2) = 4m + 2n - 10 - 8[/tex]

[tex]P(-2) = 4m + 2n - 18[/tex]

x + 2 leaves a remainder of 36, means that P(-2) = 36;

So, we have:

[tex]4m + 2n - 18 = 36[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]4m + 2n = 36+18[/tex]

[tex]4m + 2n = 54[/tex]

Divide through by 2

[tex]2m + n=27[/tex] --- (2)

Add (1) and (2)

[tex]m + 2m - n + n = 9 +27[/tex]

[tex]3m =36[/tex]

Divide by 3

[tex]m = 12[/tex]

Substitute [tex]m = 12[/tex] in (1)

[tex]m - n =9[/tex]

Make n the subject

[tex]n = m - 9[/tex]

[tex]n = 12 - 9[/tex]

[tex]n =3[/tex]

William has been contracted to paint a school classroom. The classroom is 20 m long, 15 m wide and 5 m high. There are four windows (2m by 3m) and a door (2m by 1m). Determine the cost of painting the ceiling at N$ 6.50/m²​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

l -> length

b -> width

h -> height

Find the area of four walls and ceiling. then subtract the area of four windows and a door form that area.

Area of four walls + ceiling = 2( lh + bh) +lb

 = 2*(20*5 + 15*5) + 20*15

= 2( 100 + 75) + 300

= 2* 175 + 300

= 350 +300

= 650 sq m

Area of window = 2 *3 = 6 sq.m

Area of four windows = 4*6 = 24 sq.m

Area of door = 2 * 1 =  2 sq.m

Area of four walls excluding 4 windows and door = 650 - 24 - 2 = 624 sq.m

Cost of painting = 624 * 6.50

                          = $ 4056

Answer:  1950 dollars to paint the ceiling only (ignoring the walls)

The cost to paint the walls only is 2106 dollars.

The cost to paint the walls and ceiling is 4056 dollars.

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

Explanation:

It seems a bit strange how your teacher mentions the windows and doors, but then asks about the ceiling only. Perhaps this is a red herring, but I'm not sure.

Anyway, to directly answer the question, we'll need to find the area of the ceiling first. The ceiling is a rectangle of dimensions 20 m by 15 m, so its area is 20*15 = 300 square meters.

Since paint costs 6.50 dollars per square meter, the total cost for the ceiling alone is 6.50*300 = 1950 dollars

If your teacher only cares about the ceiling, then you can stop here (and ignore the next section below).

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

If you wanted to find the cost to paint the walls, then we need to find the area of the walls.

For now, ignore the windows and door. Two opposite walls have area of 20*5 = 100 m^2 each. That accounts for 2*100 = 200 m^2 of wall area so far.

The other pair of opposite walls have area 15*5 = 75 m^2 each. That's another 2*75 = 150 m^2 of wall area.

In all, the total wall area without considering the windows or door is 200+150 = 350 m^2.

Now we consider the windows. Each window is 2 m by 3 m, yielding an area of 2*3 = 6 m^2. Four such windows have a total area of 4*6 = 24 m^2.

The door is 2 m by 1 m, so its area is 2*1 = 2 m^2

We'll subtract the wall area and the combined window+door areas to get

wallArea - windowArea - doorArea = 350-24-2 = 324

So after accounting for the windows and door, the amount of wall to paint is 324 m^2, which leads to a cost of 6.50*324 = 2106 dollars.

Therefore, painting the walls and ceiling gets us a total cost of 1950+2106 = 4056 dollars

This section is entirely optional if your teacher only cares about the ceiling.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached table

Required

The type of variation

First, we check for direct variation using:

[tex]k = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

Pick corresponding points on the table

[tex](x,y) = (-2,-5)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{-5}{-2} = 2.5[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (4,10)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{10}{4} = 2.5[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (6,15)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{15}{6} = 2.5[/tex]

Hence, the table shows direct variation with [tex]k = 2.5[/tex]

Suppose that you are interested in determining the average height of a person in a large city. You begin by collecting the heights of a random sample of 196 people from the city. The average height of your sample is 68 inches, while the standard deviation of the heights in your sample is 7 inches. The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is

Answers

Answer:

The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is 0.5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

You begin by collecting the heights of a random sample of 196 people from the city.

This means that [tex]n = 196[/tex]

The standard deviation of the heights in your sample is 7 inches.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 7[/tex]

The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{7}{\sqrt{196}} = 0.5[/tex]

The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is 0.5 inches.

Find the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector. (Give the direction angles correct to the nearest degree.) c, c, c , where c > 0

Answers

Answer:

cos(∝) = 1/√3

cos(β) = 1/√3

cos(γ) = 1/√3

∝ = 55°

β = 55°

γ = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

vector is z = < c,c,c >

the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector = ?

Cosines are the angle made with the respect to the axes.

cos(∝) = z < 1,0,0 > / |z|

so

cos(∝) = < c,c,c > < 1,0,0 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( c + 0 + 0 ) / √[ 3c² ]

cos(∝) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3

∝ = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°

cos(β) = < c,c,c > < 0,1,0 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( 0 + c + 0 ) / √[ 3c² ]

cos(β) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3

β = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°

cos(γ) = < c,c,c > < 0,0,1 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( 0 + 0 + c ) / √[ 3c² ]

cos(γ) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3

γ = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°

Therefore;

cos(∝) = 1/√3

cos(β) = 1/√3

cos(γ) = 1/√3

∝ = 55°

β = 55°

γ = 55°

30 - 9 = 21 dollars (Final answer)
20% of $30 = $6
30 - 6 = $24
10% of $24 = $2.40
24 - 2.40 = $21.60 cost of student lunch

You have to do each percent separate to get the cost.
If you just take 30% off from the original cost of $30 it will be the wrong answer.
