Answer:

Hi,

a=b+3

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{array}{c||c|c|c|c}&x^3&x^2&x&1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a&b&c\\x=-1&&-1&a+1&-a-b-1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a-1&a+b+1&c-a-b-1\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{c||c|c|c|c}&x^3&x^2&x&1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a&b&c\\x=2&&2&4-2a&2b+8-4a\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&2-a&b+4-2a&c+2b+8-4a\\\end{array}

Thus:

c+2b+8-4a=c-a-b-1

3b-3a=-9

<u>a=b+3</u>

A polynomial function g(x) with integer coefficients has a leading coefficient of 1 and a constant term of
mart [117]

Answer:

+1, -1, +11, -11

probably written with a +- symbol:

+-1, +-11

Maybe (silly) written like fractions:

+- 1/1, +- 11/1

Step-by-step explanation:

First list the factors of the leading coefficient. Here its 1. So we're going to use positive and negatives of the factors of 1, which is just +/- 1 . These numbers are going to go on the bottom of a fraction.

Next look for the factors of the constant, here it's 11

So that gives us

+/- 1, +/- 11 . These will go on the top of a fraction. (A fraction is a rational expression, that's why the name)

Then make all the combinations of

factors of constant

OVER

factors of leadingcoeff

So, we find

+/- 1, +/- 11
