A classroom has a volume of x3 + 5x2 – 2x – 24 ft3 and the height is x – 2 ft. The floor is represented by what polynomial? x2 + x + 7 x2 – 7x + 7 x2 + x – 12 x2 + 7x + 12

OpenStudy (arlen):

volume = area of floor * height

Parth (parthkohli):

I think that you mean "area of the floor".

OpenStudy (arlen):

area of floor= volume/ height

Parth (parthkohli):

For the area of floor, divide x - 2 from that polynomial.

Parth (parthkohli):

For that, do synthetic division, long division or any other crappy method.

lindsey you there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i am

OpenStudy (arlen):

OpenStudy (arlen):

\[\frac{ x^3+5x^2-2x-24 }{ x-2 }\] hope that helps you Lindsey

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A?

OpenStudy (arlen):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Arlen, is it B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's C!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd recommend synthetic division.

OpenStudy (arlen):

yes

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
