(x + 1 ) is not a factor of the polynomial

given (x - a) is a factor of a polynomial f(x) then x = a is a root and the remainder is f(a) = 0

evaluate the polynomial f(- 1)

f(- 1) = 2(- 1)³ - 9(- 1)² + 17(- 1) - 6

       = - 2 - 9 - 17 - 6 = - 34 ≠ 0

Thus (x + 1) is not a factor of the polynomial

What is the velocity of an object dropped from a height of 180 m when it hits the ground?
Helen [10]
You can use this formula: <span>vf^2=0+2(9.8)(M) 
solve it out like so:
vf^2=0+2(9.8)(180)
vf^2=2(1764)
vf^2=3528
now, square both sides to cancel out the power of 2. you are left with:
about 59.4 m/s</span>

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that:

Two angles are Complementary when they add up to 90 degrees

Two angles are supplementary when they add up to 180 degrees

Let the angle = x

If the complement of an angle is equal to the supplement of four times the angle, then find the measure of the angle.

90 - x = 180 - 4x
