If (x - 2) is a factor of 2x³ + x² - 3 then for the value of x = 2 the polynominal is equal zero.
Substitute:
2 · 2³ + 2² - 3 = 2 · 8 + 4 - 3 = 16 + 4 - 3 = 17 ≠ 0
Answer: B) (x - 2) is not a factor.
Part A)
Multiply the amount he earned by 8.5%
8.5% written as a decimal is 0.085.
75,000 x 0.085 = $6,375
Part B)
Subtract the amount of tax from his earnings:
75,000 - 6,375 = $68,625
The answer is 9 because 9 to the second power is 81 and 81*9 = 729 :)))
i hope this is helpful
have a nice day
