Solution:

As we are given that f(1) = 0 .

It mean that $(x-1)$ is one of the factor of the given equation.

Remainder theorem can be applied as below:

$\frac{(x^3+3x^2-x-3)}{(x-1)}=\frac{x^3-x^2+4x^2-4x+3x-3}{(x-1)}\\ \\\frac{x^3-x^2+4x^2-4x+3x-3}{(x-1)}=\frac{x^2(x-1)+4x(x-1)+3(x-1)}{(x-1)} \\\\\frac{x^2(x-1)+4x(x-1)+3(x-1)}{(x-1)}=\frac{(x^2+4x+3)(x-1)}{(x-1)} \\\\\frac{(x^2+4x+3)(x-1)}{(x-1)} =\frac{(x^2+3x+x+3)(x-1)}{(x-1)} \\\\\frac{(x^2+3x+x+3)(x-1)}{(x-1)} =\frac{(x-1)(x+3)(x+1)}{(x-1)}$

Hence the factors are (x-1),(x+3) and (x+1).

Hence the correct option is B.

Marginal cost At a certain factory the marginal cost is 3(q-4)^2 dollars per unit when the level of production is q units.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

a.) C(q) = -(1/4)*q^3 + 3q^2 - 12q + OH b.) $170

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Marginal cost is defined as the decrease or increase in total production cost if output is increased by one more unit. Mathematically:

Marginal cost (MC) = change in total cost/change in quantity

Therefore, to derive the equation for total production cost, we need to integrate the equation of marginal cost with respect to quantity. Thus:

Total cost (C) = Integral [3(q-4)^2] dq = -(1/4)*(q-4)^3 + k

where k is a constant.

The overhead (OH) = C(0) = -(1/4)*(0-4)^3 + k = -16 + k

C(q) = -(1/4)*(q^3 - 12q^2 + 48q - 64) + k = -(1/4)*q^3 + 3q^2 - 12q -16 + k

Thus:

C(q) = -(1/4)*q^3 + 3q^2 - 12q + OH

(b) C(14) = -(1/4)*14^3 + 3*14^2 - 12*14 + 436 = -686 + 588 - 168 + 436 = $170

What is the additive identity of the complex number 14 + 5i?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: B) 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1. When you add complex numbers you must add the whole parts and then the imaginary parts.

2. One of the properties of complex numbers is called "Additive identity" which is represented by:

$0+0i$

3. Then, for the complex number $14+5i$ , you have:

$(14+5i)+(0+0i)=(14+0)+(5+0)i=14+5i$

4. Therefore, the answer is the option B.

Complete the steps for solving 7 = –2x2 + 10x. Factor out of the variable terms. inside the parentheses and on the left side of

Mamont248 [21]

we have

$7=-2x^{2} +10x$

Factor the leading coefficient

$7=-2(x^{2} -5x)$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$7-12.50=-2(x^{2} -5x+2.5^{2})$

$-5.50=-2(x^{2} -5x+2.5^{2})$

Divide both sides by $-2$

$2.75=(x^{2} -5x+2.5^{2})$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$2.75=(x-2.5)^{2}$

Taking the square roots of both sides (square root property of equality)

$x-2.5=(+/-)\sqrt{2.75}$

Remember that

$\sqrt{2.75}=\sqrt{\frac{11}{4}}= \frac{\sqrt{11}}{2}$

$x-2.5=(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{11}}{2}$

$x=2.5(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{11}}{2}$

$x=2.5+\frac{\sqrt{11}}{2}=\frac{5+\sqrt{11}}{2}$

$x=2.5-\frac{\sqrt{11}}{2}=\frac{5-\sqrt{11}}{2}$

<u>the answer is</u>

The solutions are

$x=\frac{5+\sqrt{11}}{2}$

$x=\frac{5-\sqrt{11}}{2}$
