If \(\frac{15 - 2x}{(x+4)(x-3)}\) = \(\frac{R}{(x+4)}\) \(\frac{9}{7(x-3)}\), find the value of R

A.

\(\frac{-32}{7}\)

B.

\(\frac{-23}{7}\)

C.

\(\frac{23}{7}\)

D.

\(\frac{32}{7}\)

Correct answer is C

\(\frac{15 - 2x}{(x+4)(x-3)}\) = \(\frac{R}{(x+4)}\) + \(\frac{9}{7(x-3)}\)

 15-2x = R(x - 3) +9(x +4)/7

Put x =-4, we have 15 -2(-4) = -7R

23 -7R;

R = 23/7

Given that f: x --> x\(^2\) - x + 1 is defined on the Set Q = { x : 0 ≤ x < 20, x is a multiple of 5}. find the set of range of F.

A.

{21, 91, 221}

B.

{21, 91, 221, 381}

C.

{1,21, 91, 221}

D.

{1,21, 91, 221,381}

Correct answer is A

multiples of 5 less than 20 = 5, 10 and 15

= [ 5, 10 and 15 ]x\(^2\) - x + 1


x\(^2\) - x + 1

when x = 5

5\(^2\) - 5 + 1; 25 - 5 + 1 --> 21

when x = 10

10\(^2\) - 10 + 1

100 - 9 = 91

when x = 15

15\(^2\) - 15 + 1

225 - 15 + 1 = 211
