Two students, Claude and Diane, were asked to use synthetic division and the Remainder Theorem to find the value of f(2) given f

(x)=2x^3+5x−6. Their work is shown here.
Claude's Work 2−−|220445813−626|20


Diane's Work 2−−|220−4−45813−6−26|−32














Part A: Which student correctly used synthetic division to find f(2)?



Part B: What is the value of f(2)?



Part C: Is x−2 a factor of 2x3+5x−6? In other words, is x=2 a zero of f(x)?



Part D: What are all the methods that can be used to find out if x−2 is a factor of 2x3+5x−6?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

In applying the synthetic division, the polynomial would be fully expressed as

2x³ + 0x² + 5x - 6

The coefficients are 2, 0, 5 and - 6

The working becomes

2| 2 0 5 -6

4 8 16

2 4 13 10

The student that correctly used synthetic division to find f(2) is Claudia

Part B

The value of f(2) is

2(2)^3+5(2) - 6

= (2 × 8) + 10 - 6

= 16 + 10 - 6 = 20

Part C

x - 2 is not a factor of 2x³ + 5x - 6 because there is a remainder of 20.

Part D

The methods that can be used to find out if x - 2 is a factor of 2x³ + 5x - 6 are synthetic division, long division, remainder theorem

For each of the following integrals, indicate whether integration by substitution or integration by parts is more appropriate, o
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

a. ∫ xSinx dx

iii. integration by parts

u =x and dv= sinx

b. ∫ x⁴/(1+x³). dx  

ii. neither

Long division is an option here before integration is done

c. ∫ x⁴. e^x³. dx

i. substitution

where u = x⁵

d. ∫x⁴ cos(x⁵). dx

i. substitution

where u = x⁵

e. ∫1/√9x+1 .dx

i. substitution

where u = 9x+1

Find the value of cosAcos2Acos3A...........cos998Acos999A where A=2π/1999
Lady bird [3.3K]
Hello,

Here is the demonstration in the book Person Guide to Mathematic by Khattar Dinesh.

Let's assume
P=cos(a)*cos(2a)*cos(3a)*....*cos(998a)*cos(999a)
Q=sin(a)*sin(2a)*sin(3a)*....*sin(998a)*sin(999a)

As sin x *cos x=sin (2x) /2

P*Q=1/2*sin(2a)*1/2sin(4a)*1/2*sin(6a)*....
         *1/2* sin(2*998a)*1/2*sin(2*999a) (there are 999 factors)
= 1/(2^999) * sin(2a)*sin(4a)*...
     *sin(998a)*sin(1000a)*sin(1002a)*....*sin(1996a)*sin(1998a)
 as sin(x)=-sin(2pi-x) and 2pi=1999a

sin(1000a)=-sin(2pi-1000a)=-sin(1999a-1000a)=-sin(999a)
sin(1002a)=-sin(2pi-1002a)=-sin(1999a-1002a)=-sin(997a)
...
sin(1996a)=-sin(2pi-1996a)=-sin(1999a-1996a)=-sin(3a)
sin(1998a)=-sin(2pi-1998a)=-sin(1999a-1998a)=-sin(a)

So  sin(2a)*sin(4a)*...
     *sin(998a)*sin(1000a)*sin(1002a)*....*sin(1996a)*sin(1998a)
= sin(a)*sin(2a)*sin(3a)*....*sin(998)*sin(999) since there are 500 sign "-".

Thus
P*Q=1/2^999*Q or Q!=0 then
P=1/(2^999)

Suppose that the terminal point determined by t is the point 12 13 , 5 13 on the unit circle. Find the terminal point determined
Tom [10]

Answer:

  (a)  (-12/13, 5/13)

  (b)  (12/13, -5/13)

  (c)  (-12/13, -5/13)

  (d)  (12/13, 5/13)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The terminal point is effectively reflected across the y-axis, so the sign of the x-coordinate changes. (-12/13, 5/13)

__

(b) The terminal point is effectively reflected across the x-axis, so the sign of the y-coordinate changes. (12/13, -5/13)

__

(c) The terminal point is effectively reflected across the origin, so the signs of both coordinates change. (-12/13, -5/13)

__

(d) The terminal point is mapped to itself, so its coordinates remain unchanged. (12/13, 5/13)

Lerok [7]
(13-0.25x4)(12+4x4)=2,464
(13-0.25x5)(12+4x5)=3,845
(13-0.25x6)(12+4x6)=2,845
so your answer is 3,845 because if Hirome sells them for $11.75 he makes $3845 if Hirome sold them for $11.50 he makes $2845.80 and if he sold them for $12.00 he would make $2464.00
