The Value of a for which (x - 5) is a factor of x³ -3x² +ax -10 is a = -8 .
The Equation is given as x³ -3x² +ax -10 ;
the factor of the above equation is given as (x - 5) ;
Since (x - 5) is given to be a factor ,
we have , x - 5 [tex]=[/tex] 0 ;
On solving ,
we have , x = 5 .
For (x - 5) to be a factor of x³ -3x² +ax -10 ,
x = 5 should satisfy the given equation .
that means ; (5)³ -3(5)² +a(5) -10 = 0 ;
⇒ 125 - 3×25 + 5a - 10 = 0 ;
⇒ 125 - 75 + 5a - 10 = 0 ;
⇒ 50 + 5a - 10 = 0 ;
⇒ 40 + 5a = 0 ;
⇒ 5a = -40 ;
dividing both sides by 5 ,
we get ;
a = -40/5 = -8 .
Therefore , the value of a is "-8" .
The given question is incomplete , the complete question is
For what value of a is (x - 5) a factor of x³ -3x² +ax -10 ?

to rent a certain meeting room, a college charges a reservation fee of $18 and an additional fee of $6 per hour. The chemistry club wants to spend at most $72 on renting the room. what are the possible numbers of hours the cemetery club could rent the meeting room? use t for the number of hours. write your answer as an inequality solved for t.
Answer:
t ≤ 9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Reservation fee = $18
Additional fee per hour = $6
Let x = number of hours
At most in inequality means ≤ less than or equal to
The inequality is
18 + 6t ≤ 72
6t ≤ 72 - 18
6t ≤ 54
t ≤ 54/6
t ≤ 9 hours

Answer:
mean: 13
range: 15
there is no mode
median: 13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
mean= 14+9+20+5+17+13 = 78
78÷6= 13
range = highest number minus the smallest number
20-5 = 15
the mode is the number that occurs the most
median= 13+14= 27
27÷2 = 13.5

Value of a in term of x = 8/x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
14 = ax + 6
Find:
Value of a in term of x
Computation:
⇒ 14 = ax + 6
Step 1; Subtract 6 from both side
⇒ 14 - 6 = ax + 6 - 6
We get step 2
⇒ 8 = ax
Divide x from both side and we get step 3
⇒ 8 / x = ax / x
Step 4
⇒ 8/x = a
Step 5
⇒ a = 8/x
Value of a in term of x = 8/x

hint: use your knowledge of parallel lines. what do you know about these angles? are they congruent or supplementary?
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The given angles are supplementary which means their sum is 180
8x - 6 + 98 = 180 add like terms
8x + 92 = 180 subtract 92 from both sides
8x = 88 divide both sides by 8
x = 11

what is the length of a rectangle whose preimeter is p, if the width is 6 express using algebra
Answer:
[tex]l=\dfrac{p}{2}-6[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The perimeter of a rectangle = p
Width = 6
We need to find the length of the rectangle.
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is given by :
[tex]p=2(l+b)[/tex]
l is length
Put b = 6
So,
[tex]p=2(l+6)\\\\\dfrac{p}{2}=l+6\\\\l=\dfrac{p}{2}-6[/tex]
So, the required length is equal to [tex]\dfrac{p}{2}-6[/tex].

The distance from city a to city b is 1400 miles and from city a to city c is 500 miles. Estimate how many miles farther city b is from city a than city c is
Answer:
900 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Distance from City A to city B = 1400 miles
Distance from City A to City C = 500 miles
Miles farther city B is from city A than city C is ;
Distance from A to B - Distance from A to C
1400 miles - 500 miles
= 900 miles
if p and q vary inversely and p is 17 when q is 15, determine q when p is equal to 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
q = 51
Writing these statements symbolically, we get p = k/q. This is inverse variation.
Solving for k, we get k = pq. Thus the governing equation is k = pq, or k = (17)(15) = 255.
We then have a specific equation: p = 255/q, or q = 255/p.
If p is 5, q is q = 255/5 = 51

What X !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help me please!!!!
Answer:
x = 135°Step-by-step explanation:
According to the problem,
45° + x = 180° [Linear pair]
=> x = 180° - 45°
=> x = 135° (Ans)
Answer:
The value of x is 135°.
Step-by-step explanation:
This figure displays a straight angle, meaning that its measure is 180°.
180° - 45° = 135°
Since angle x is indeed an obtuse angle, the answer is correct! Hope this helps; have a great day.
