7 + 3x is not a factor of expression 3x^3 + 7x

Consider given expression  3x^3 + 7x

Let f(x) = 3x^3 + 7x

Assume that  7 + 3x is a factor of 3x^3 + 7x

This means,  7 + 3x = 0 would be the root.

x = -7/3

If x = -7/3 is root of polynomial f(x) = 3x^3 + 7x then f(-7/3) must be equal to 0

We find the value of given polynomial for x = -7/3

f(x) = 3x^3 + 7x

f(-7/3) = 3(-7 / 3)^3 + 7 (-7 / 3)

f(-7/3) = (3 × (-343)) / 27 + (-49 / 3)

f(-7/3) =  [(-343) - 147] / 9

f(-7/3) = -490 / 9

f(-7/3) ≠ 0

Since f(-7/3) ≠ 0, x = -7/3 is not root of polynomial  f(x) = 3x^3 + 7x

Using the mean value theorem, the least possible value of f(3) is - 2

The mean value theorem states that for a function f(x) on the interval (a, b), there exists a value c such that

f'(c) = f(b) - f(a)/(b - a)

Since ƒ(−1) = 10 and ƒ'(x) ≥−3 for all values of x, we require the least possible value of f(3).

Using the mean value theorem where

We choose f'(c) = 3 since f'(x) = 3 is the minimum value of f'(x).

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have that

f'(c) = f(b) - f(a)/(b - a)

f'(x) = f(3) - f(-1)/(3 - (-1))

f'(x) = f(3) - f(-1)/(3 + 1)

f'(x) = f(3) - f(-1)/4

So, making f(3) subject of the formula, we have that

f(3) = f(-1) + 4f'(x)

Since

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have that

f(3) = f(-1) + 4f'(x)

f(3) = 10 + 4(-3)

f(3) = 10 - 12

f(3) = - 2

So, the least possible value is - 2

The histogram is left skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]40, 47, 37, 42, 46, 31, 50, 41, 17[/tex]

[tex]43, 46, 45, 21, 43, 45, 23, 49, 50[/tex]

[tex]44, 35, 27, 46, 39, 33, 50, 45, 50[/tex]

Solving (a): Construct a histogram

First, we construct a frequency table

Calculate Range

[tex]Range = Highest - Least[/tex]

[tex]Range = 52 - 17[/tex]

[tex]Range = 35[/tex]

Using a class width of 5, we have the following classes:

[tex]17 - 22; 23 - 28; 29 - 34; 35 - 40; 41 - 46; 47 - 52[/tex]

So, the frequency table is:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccccccc}{Class} & {17-22} & {23-28} & {29-34} & {35-40} & {41-46} & {47-52} \ \\ {Count} & {2} & {4} & {3} & {5} & {13} & {9} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all the sides( two legs and one hypotenuse).

By pythagoras we know that

[tex]h^2= a^2+b^2.[/tex]

and the perimeter is [tex]P=h+a+b[/tex].

Since P=24 and a=6  we have these equations:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A unit rate means a rate for one of something. You should write it as a ratio with a denominator of one.

For example, if you ran 70 yards in 10 seconds, you ran on average 7 yards in 1 second. Both of the ratios, 70 yards in 10 seconds and 7 yards in 1 second, are rates, but the 7 yards in 1 second is a unit rate

IT's  0.80 per serving i think

1) we need to find the common denominator so we can multiply the denominators with each other.

[tex]\frac{6*4}{10*4}[/tex][tex]+\frac{3*10}{4*10}[/tex][tex]=\frac{24}{40} +\frac{30}{40}[/tex][tex]=\frac{54}{40}=1\frac{14}{40}[/tex]

2) make first fraction into improper fraction

[tex]\frac{20}{12} -\frac{2}{3} =\frac{20}{12} -\frac{2*4}{3*4} =\frac{20}{12} -\frac{8}{12}=\frac{12}{12} =1[/tex]

3) turn into improper fraction[tex]\frac{3}{4}+\frac{12}{5} +\frac{3}{4} =\frac{3*5}{4*5}+\frac{12*4}{5*4} +\frac{3*5}{4*5}=\frac{15}{20}+\frac{48}{20}+\frac{15}{20}=\frac{78}{20}[/tex]

4) turn into improper fraction

[tex]\frac{38}{8} +\frac{14}{5} =\frac{38*5}{8*5} +\frac{14*8}{5*8}=\frac{190}{40} + \frac{112}{40}=\frac{302}{40}[/tex]

then we minus 2 3/4

[tex]\frac{302}{40} - \frac{11}{4} = \frac{302}{40} - \frac{11*10}{4*10}=\frac{302}{40} - \frac{110}{40}=\frac{192}{40}[/tex]

3a) Rounded to the closest benchmark, Samuel walked about 3 Miles on the parade route.

3b)  Rounded to the closest benchmark, Samuel walked about 2 Miles home

3c) Samuel walked about 5 Miles in all

We know that when rounding a fraction to the closest benchmark:

1) if the numerator is much smaller than the denominator, round a fraction to 0

2) if the numerator  is about half the denominator, round a fraction to 1/2

3) if the numerator is nearly equal to the denominator, round a fraction to 1

Samuel walked 3 1/8 miles along the parade route.

Rounding to the closest benchmark a fraction 3 1/8 woule be

3 1/8

= 3            

This means, he walked about 3 Miles on the parade route.

Samuel walked 2 5/6 miles home.

Rounding to the closest benchmark a mixed fraction 2 5/6 woule be

On solving the provided question, we can say that vertices of pentagon are (-1, -1), (-3, 4), (1, 7), (6, 5) and (3, -1); Area = 30 sq unit

A pentagon is a polygon with five sides that is used in geometry. The inner angles of a straightforward pentagon add up to 540°. Simple or self-intersecting pentagons are both possible. A pentagram is a self-intersecting regular pentagon. Five angles and all sides of a regular pentagon are equal. It is referred to as an irregular pentagon if the side lengths and angle measurements do not match. All outside angles, as far as we are aware, balance out inside angles. The polygon's exterior angle total is therefore equal to n(360°/n). There are five sides to a pentagon, therefore n must equal five. Consequently, 5(360°/5) = 360° is the sum of the pentagon's outer angles.

vertices of a convex pentagon are (-1, -1), (-3, 4), (1, 7), (6, 5) and (3, -1).

Area = 1/2 [ 24+3+15+0-3] - [3-30-3+9-0]
