Which is the completely factored form of f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 6?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

(x - 1)(x - 3)(x + 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1) = 1^3 - 2(1)^2 - 5(1) + 6

= 1 - 2 - 5 + 6

= 0

so one factor is (x - 1)  (by the Factor Theorem).

Divide f(x) by x - 1 we get:

x- 1) x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 6 (  x^2 - x - 6 <------ answer

       x^3 - x^2

              -x^2 - 5x

              -x^2 + x

                       -6x + 6

                        -6x + 6

= x^2  - x - 6  

= (x - 3)(x + 2).

Challenger Elementary School has 800 students. Every Wednesday, 12%, percent of the students stay after school for Chess Club. How many students attend Chess Club on Wednesdays?

Answers

96 students attend the Chess Club every Wednesday.

800 is 100% of the population. We simply multiply 12% to the population of 800 to get its value.

800 x 12% = 96 students

To check: divide 96 by 800 to get its percentage.

96 / 800 = 0.12 x 100% = 12%

96 students is equivalent to 12% of 800, the school's total population.

96 students

there are 33 students in the band there are more 5th grade students than 3rd grade students there is an equal number of 3rd grade and fourth grade students how many third grade students are in the band

Answers

Use A for third graders, B for fourth graders, and C for fifth graders.

33 = A + B + C

Since there are 3 variables, you need to come up with two other equations to substitute in. 

C = 6 + A Since there are six more fifth graders than third graders. 

A = B Since there is an equal amount of third and fourth graders.

Since A is in both equations, then lets put each variable in terms of A. 

B = A

C = 6 + A

So:

A + A + A + 6 = 33

A + A + A = 27 Since you subtract 6 from both sides.

3A = 27 Since you combine all three A's. 

A = 9 Since you divide both sides by three. 

Therefore, since A is a number of third graders, there are 9 third graders.

So,

a.
Let
1. Alison be "a"
2. Kyle be "k"
3. Maurice be "m"

a = 2k
m = a + 5
m = 2k + 5

40 > 5k + 5

35 > 5k
7 > k
The relationship between k and m:
m = 2k + 5
