a. (x + 1) 2(x - 1)
b. (x + 1)(x - 1)(x 2 + 1)
c. (x 3 - x 2 + x - 1)(x 2 - 1)
d. (x + 1)(x - 1)(x 2 - 1)

Answers

Answer 1
Let
f(x) = x³ - x² + x - 1
g(x) = x² - 1

By the remainder theorem, f(1) = 1 -1 + 1 - 1 = 0
Therefore (x-1) is a factor.
Perform synthetic division.

1 | 1  -1   1  -1
         1  0   1
   --------------
    1   0  1   0

Therefore,
f(x) = (x-1)(x²+1)

Also,
g(x) = (x+1)(x-1)

Answer: b.
The least common multiple for f(x) and g(x) is (x + 1)(x - 1)(x² + 1).

Answer 2

The correct answer is d. [tex](x + 1)(x - 1)(x^2 - 1)[/tex].

To find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two polynomials[tex]\(x^3 - x^2 + x - 1\) and \(x^2 - 1\)[/tex], we need to factor each polynomial and then find the LCM of the factors.

First, let's factor [tex]\(x^3 - x^2 + x - 1\)[/tex]:

[tex]\(x^3 - x^2 + x - 1 = x^2(x - 1) + (x - 1) = (x^2 + 1)(x - 1)\)[/tex].

Now, let's factor [tex]\(x^2 - 1\)[/tex]:

[tex]\(x^2 - 1 = (x + 1)(x - 1)\)[/tex].

The LCM of two polynomials is the product of the highest powers of all the factors that appear in either polynomial. Here, we have the factors [tex]\(x - 1\), \(x + 1\), and \(x^2 + 1\)[/tex] from the first polynomial, and the factors [tex]\(x - 1\) and \(x + 1\)[/tex] from the second polynomial.

Since [tex]\(x^2 + 1\)[/tex] is already the highest power of [tex]\(x^2 + 1\) , \(x - 1\) and \(x + 1\)[/tex] are the highest powers of [tex]\(x - 1\) and \(x + 1\)[/tex] respectively, the LCM is simply the product of all these factors:

[tex]\((x + 1)(x - 1)(x^2 + 1)\)[/tex].

However, we notice that [tex]\(x^2 - 1\)[/tex] is actually equal to [tex]\((x + 1)(x - 1)\)[/tex], and since [tex]\(x^2 + 1\)[/tex] is not a factor of [tex]\(x^2 - 1\)[/tex], we do not include it in the LCM. Therefore, the LCM is just [tex]\((x + 1)(x - 1)\)[/tex].

But we must also consider the polynomial [tex]\(x^3 - x^2 + x - 1\)[/tex], which can be rewritten as [tex]\((x^2 + 1)(x - 1)\)[/tex]. Since [tex]\(x^2 + 1\)[/tex] is not a factor of [tex]\(x^2 - 1\)[/tex], it must be included in the LCM to account for the additional factor in the first polynomial.

Thus, the LCM of [tex]\(x^3 - x^2 + x - 1\) and \(x^2 - 1\)[/tex] is [tex]\((x + 1)(x - 1)(x^2 - 1)\)[/tex], which corresponds to option d. This is because we take the highest powers of the common factors [tex]\((x + 1)\) and \((x - 1)\)[/tex], and include the additional factor from the first polynomial, which is [tex]\(x^2 - 1\)[/tex] since [tex]\(x^2 + 1\)[/tex] is not a factor of[tex](x^2 - 1\))[/tex].

Therefore, the final answer is [tex]\(\boxed{(x + 1)(x - 1)(x^2 - 1)}\)[/tex].

Given the literal equation for the area formula of a trapezoid: A =12h(b1 + b2) solve for b1. Must show your work to receive full credit.

Answers

[tex]\( b_1 = \frac{A}{12h} - b_2 \)[/tex] is the formula to solve for [tex]\( b_1 \)[/tex] in the trapezoid area equation.

To solve for [tex]\( b_1 \) in the equation \( A = 12h(b_1 + b_2) \), where \( A \)[/tex] is the area of the trapezoid, [tex]\( h \) is the height, \( b_1 \)[/tex]is one of the bases, and [tex]\( b_2 \)[/tex] is the other base, you can follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by [tex]\( 12h \) to isolate \( (b_1 + b_2) \):[/tex]

[tex]\[ \frac{A}{12h} = b_1 + b_2 \][/tex]

2. Subtract [tex]\( b_2 \)[/tex] from both sides of the equation:

[tex]\[ \frac{A}{12h} - b_2 = b_1 \][/tex]

So, the equation for [tex]\( b_1 \) in terms of \( A \), \( h \), and \( b_2 \)[/tex] is:

[tex]\[ b_1 = \frac{A}{12h} - b_2 \][/tex]

What is 39ft/min to yd/s?
Please explain using dimensional analysis.

Answers

Dimensional analysis simply means to arrange the units in the problem in a such a way that they cancel each other out and you're left with the units you need in the answer. We do this by using conversion ratios arranged like fractions, then multiplying across left to right.

In your problem, we're given ft/min and need to convert to yd/s. Start with feet and convert to yards for the numerator, then convert minutes to seconds for the denominator: (pretend the parentheses encompass the entire fractions - limitations of the answer box)
39 feet    x ( 1 yard )  x   (1 min)
1 min           3 feet           60 sec

Notice that feet cancel, and minutes cancel. We're left with yards in the numerator and seconds in the denominator.
Multiplying the numbers, we get 39/180, which simplifies to 0.217.
The final answer is ~0.22 yd/sec.

Is it possible for a composite number to have more than one prime factorization?

Answers

no The prime factorization of a composite number is the process of finding all the prime numbers that when multiplied together result in the composite number. Just rearranging the order of the prime numbers doesn't change the factorization. The Commutative Property of multiplication allows us to multiply the prime factors together in any order at all.

Answer:

The number of students in the freshman class are:

                                 202

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of students in Freshman class = x

The sophomore class has 60 more students than the freshman class.

This means that the number of students in sophomore class = x+60

The junior class has 50 fewer students than twice the students in the freshman class.

This means that the number of students in junior class= 2x-50

The senior class is three times as large as the freshman class.

This means that the number of students in senior class are: 3x

There are a total of 1,424 students at the city high school.

This means that:

[tex]x+x+60+2x-50+3x=1424\\\\x+x+2x+3x+60-50=1424\\\\7x+10=1424\\\\7x=1424-10\\\\7x=1414\\\\x=\dfrac{1414}{7}\\\\x=202[/tex]

The commission of selling each iPhone is $30 and the commission of selling each iPad is $20. If you one day sold 4 more iPhones than iPads and earned a total commission of $520, how many iPhones and iPads did you sell respectively?

Answers

lets assume number of iphones sold = a number of ipads sold = b i sold 4 iphones more than ipad that becomes a = b+4 then the equation of total commission becomes 30a+20b = 520 substituting a =b+4 in the above equation 30(b+4)+20b = 520 30b+120+20b = 520 50b =520-120 50b = 400 b = 400/50 b=8 number of iphones i sold = a = b+4 = 8+4 = 12 number of ipads i sold = 8 so i sold 12 iphones and 8 ipads to earn the commission of $520

By solving the system of equations which includes the total commission and difference in quantity of iPhones and iPads sold, we determine that the salesperson sold 8 iPads and 12 iPhones.

The student is tasked with solving a system of linear equations to determine how many iPhones and iPads were sold based on the commission earned. Let's define the number of iPads sold as x and the number of iPhones as x + 4.

The total commission for iPhones is $30 per iPhone and the total commission for iPads is $20 per iPad. The total commission earned from selling these products is $520.

We can set up two equations based on the given information:

Commission from iPhones: 30(x + 4)

Commission from iPads: 20x

Total Commission: 30(x + 4) + 20x = 520

By solving the equation 30(x + 4) + 20x = 520, we find:

30x + 120 + 20x = 520

50x + 120 = 520

50x = 400

x = 8

So, the number of iPads sold is 8. Since the number of iPhones sold is 4 more than iPads, we have:

Number of iPhones sold = x + 4 = 8 + 4

Number of iPhones sold = 12

Therefore, the salesperson sold 8 iPads and 12 iPhones respectively.

Is it true that |3-8| and |3+8|

Answers

No, it is not true. If you solve them, the first one is 5, while the second one is 11.

To determine if |3-8| is equal to |3+8|, we calculate the absolute values: |3-8|=5 and |3+8|=11. Since 5 is not equal to 11, the statement is false.

To solve the given problem, we need to understand the properties of absolute values. Absolute value measures the distance of a number from zero on the number line, regardless of direction.

First, calculate the absolute value of each expression: |3-8| and |3+8|.For |3-8|:

       3 - 8 = -5, and the absolute value of -5 is 5. Therefore, |3-8| = 5.

For |3+8|:

        3 + 8 = 11, and the absolute value of 11 is 11. Therefore, |3+8| = 11.

In conclusion, it is not true that |3-8| equals |3+8|, as |3-8| = 5 and |3+8| = 11.

here is the full question-Is it true that |3-8| and |3+8| are equal?

Final answer:

The student is looking for the terms 'Verbal Description' and 'Function Notation' for their Algebra Vocabulary Crossword. These refer to a relation described in word format and a way to name a function identifying its input respectively.

Explanation:

Based on the number of letters you've indicated, it looks like you're looking for two vocabulary items in the field of Algebra.

First, a relation described in a word format is typically called a Verbal Description, which has 17 letters.

Second, a way to name a function identifying its input is called Function Notation, which has 16 letters.

In Algebra, Verbal Description is when you describe a mathematical relationship using words. For example, 'the sum of a number and three is seven.' This could be translated to the equation x+3=7.

Function Notation, on the other hand, is a way to name a function that is dependent on one or more inputs. For example, f(x) = x^2 is function notation, since the output 'f(x)' is dependent on the input 'x'.

If y = 44 when x = –264, what is y when x = –486

Answers

Final answer:

The value of 'y' when x equals -486 using the same ratio (1:6) as given in the original input is -81.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we're given a ratio of y to x (1:6) when x is -264 and y is 44. This ratio implies that y is one-sixth of x. Utilizing this information, we can determine y for a different x value (-486). By maintaining the 1:6 ratio, we divide -486 by 6, resulting in -81. Therefore, when x is -486, y equals -81. This solution stems from understanding the proportional relationship between y and x, allowing us to calculate y for any given x value based on the established ratio. In this case, the ratio of 1:6 guides the computation, ensuring the accurate determination of y as -81 when x is -486.

Answer:

24x

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable x is used to represent the independent variable in a situation.  In this situation, the independent variable would be the number of pools cleaned; this means that x represents the number of pools cleaned.

24x would then indicate that Tali charges $24 per pool cleaned; this makes 24x her total earnings from cleaning pools.

Answer:

A. [tex]24x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an expression [tex]-243+24x[/tex], which represents he profit Tali has earned from cleaning pools. We are also told that Tali purchased cleaning supplies and charged the same amount for each pool cleaned.

Upon looking at our expression we can see that [tex]-243[/tex] is constant term and it is negative, so it will represent the amount spent by Tali on supplies.

The term [tex]24x[/tex] contains independent variable [tex]x[/tex], which represents the number of pools cleaned and 24 represents Tali's earning from each pool.

Since Tali cleaned [tex]x[/tex] pools, so total amount of Tali's earning from cleaning [tex]x[/tex] pools will be [tex]24x[/tex] and option A is the correct choice.
