Prove that x' + 5x + 6 is a factor of x' + 5x' + 2x - 20x - 24 3. Solve 2x - x = 7x- - 9r + 3.4. Amit has designed a rectangular storage unit to hold large factory equipment. His scale model has dimensions 1 m by 2 m by 4 m. By what amount should he increase each dimension to produce an actual storage unit that 15 9 times the volume of his scale model?

Each tray starts as a rectangular sheet of metal from which identical squares are cut from the four corners. The resulting rectangular flaps are then folded up and welded to produce an open-topped rectangular tray. What size of square should Maria cut from a rectangular sheet of metal 15 cm by 25 cm in order to produce a tray with a o e 6. The distance of a ship from its harbour is modelled by the function d(t) = -3t + 3t>+18t where t is the time elapsed in hours since departure from the harbour. (draw a diagram to illustrate the problem) a) Factor the time function. b) When does the ship return to the harbour? c) There 1s another zero of d(t). What 1s 1t and why 1s 1t not relevant to the problem? d) Draw a sketch of the function where O0
