For the homework Pg 339 #3c, it asks for the removal discontinuity after graphing. I graphed it and I understand how to find the hole/removal discontinuity for only the x portion. How do I solve for the y portion of the hole/removal continuity. I got that the x hole is 2. In the back of the book it says that the removal discontinuity is (2,2). So, the y portion of the hole is 2 as well. But, how do you find that?

for #52 p.334 i cant seem to factor it even though it is probably somthing really simple

Just wondering how to factor number 19 on page 340.
Johannes Grandin
11/21/2010 10:45:26 am
For page 339 #3c, you can actually just plug it into the calculator and then look at your graph. Then you can go to your table and wherever it says ERROR for the y portion, that's the hole. The hole is also whatever you were able to cancel out when you factor the numerator and denominator.

On page 340, how do you factor #53 and #61? For #61, I have a feeling it has something to do with the difference of two squares but I can't figure it out.

for number 6 on page 360 would the answer to the problem be x cubed + ll x squared +40x because there was a 48 in the polynomial but since it was divided by 48 wouldn't that just be one?

When you do long division, how do you know when to make subtraction or addition in the answer??
Archana Sathappan
11/23/2010 12:29:11 pm
Aneesh- You just have to change the sign of every variable/constant of whatever the remainder is.

The answer for #5 on pg. 346 is x^2 -x+3.
Nikita Hariharan
11/24/2010 01:56:52 am
Oh and sorry Becky for the signs you always change the sign to whatever the constant/variable is. so for exaple, in the problem you asked, when there is a remainder of -2x squared +7, the first term is negative so the number you would plug in would have to get you to a negative that way when you subtract, the terms will cancel out.
Ishta
11/24/2010 02:07:15 am
Becky-the question is 2x^3-3x^2+7x-3/(2x-1). first take the 1st 2 terms, 2x^3-3x^2 and look at the 1st one. 2x^3 divided by 2x (from 2x-1)That would be x^2 so put that at the top of the radical. Then multiply x^2 and 2x-1. That should equal 2x^3+x^2. Then subtract it from the the orginal(2x^3-3x^2). DO NOT FORGET TO CHANGE SIGNS. That will you with -2x^2. Bring down the 7x. Now think again, -2x^2 divided by 2x=-x. Put negative above the radical. Multiply through and subract. You should be left with 6x. Bring down the -3. 6x divided by 2x is 3 so put that on top of radical. Multiply through and subtract. There should be no remainder. The answer is (2x-1)(x^2-x+3)=2x^3-3x^2+7x-3. Check answer by distributing and you are done.

i do not understand how to divide number 13 on pg 346. Can anyone explain and show me how to do it step by step
Archana Sathappan
11/29/2010 09:30:43 am
The problem for 13 on pg. 346 is x^3+3x^2+3x+1/x^2+2x+1. First do x^3/x^2 to get x and place that right on top of the x portion of your division set up. Then multiply all the terms (x^2+2x+1) by x to get x^3-2x^2-x. Then change the sign of all of those that you can take the difference of that from x^3+3x^2+3x+1. The remainder is then x^2+2x+1. Then you do x^2/x^2 to get 1 and you place that right on top of the constant portion of your divisiom set up. Then multiply 1 by x^2+2x+1 to get x^2+2x+1. Then change the sign of all of the terms so that you can take the difference of that from x^2+2x+1. The remainder is 0. At the top in your "answer section" you have x+1 as your answer and there was no remainder, so the answer is x+1. Hope this helps!

For number 17 on page 346, yes you should end up with a remainder of 2. So your answer would end up like:

Meltem Cazimi
11/30/2010 11:56:14 am
emily! uhmm no you cant just take an exponent out as a GCF it has to have the same base, you need to look at what you cubed to get the number thats there. for number 37 you have to cube r to get r^3 and you have to cube s^2 to get s^6, so then you do (r-s^2)(r^2+rs^2+s^4) because you take and square the first and second numbers in the first perenthesis to get the first and last number in the second and then just multiply those two to get the middle. i hope that makes sense.
Meltem Cazimi
11/30/2010 11:59:05 am
for the first two problems on the homework, numbers 3 and 7, i plugged the equations in the calculater and the graph shows both of them crossing the x axis which means theres a solution, but in the table there are no 0's to indicate which would be solutions, also when i used the factor theroem i couldnt figure out what would be the solutions, help ?
Archana Sathappan
11/30/2010 12:28:33 pm
The way you check to see how many answer you will get is by looking at the highest exponent in the problem. SO if you had something like 2x^3+2x^2+5+1, you would have 3 answers b/c the highest exponent is 3. Hope this helps Aneesh.
craig cook
11/30/2010 01:27:32 pm
Meltem, even though the graph touches the x-axis, the solutions are not integers so that is why none of the numbers equal 0, so u r right about there being no solution. About the other question, when you find which number(s) are equal to 0, take those number(s), flip the sign in front of them and put and x in front of it. Here is an example:

Amir Khalid Richardson
12/2/2010 10:10:01 am
Rohan to solve for number 27 you should factor it so it is (x+5)(x+8)/(5-x)(x+8) after you cancel out the eights you should end up with (x+5)/(5-x), which can't be factored

Christian Carvallo
12/8/2010 02:20:58 pm
Ryan, for number 6 the coordinates of the hole would be (-2,-5) you can find that by replacing x with -2 to find the y coordinate. The VASY would be at -1 because if you substitute -1 of x you get zero in the denominator. And the HASY would be at y=1 because both the numerator and denominator have high powers of 2 so by taking the highest coefficient of the two, (they are both 1) you get 1. hope this helps.

Miranda Colin
12/12/2010 10:49:08 am
Ashley, I don't have my book with me because I finished the homework in school so I don't remember what the problem was about. However, from what I understand, if y increases while x decreases, or vice versa, then it's inversely. If both y and x increase or both y and x decrease then it varies directly.I'm not entirely sure if that's what you were asking for so sorry if I didn't answer your question.
Jake Bennema
12/12/2010 12:35:35 pm
FOr #14 on page 397, I am pretty sure for question a, it is an inverse proportion, but I am not sure how to set up the general equation, any help would be great. thanks Comments are closed.
