Hi there!
Find the midpoint using the midpoint formula:
m = (p1 + p2) / 2
m = (-2 + 12) / 2
m = 10 / 2
m = 5.
Answer: {(x + 2), (x - 1), (x - 3)}
Step-by-step explanation:
Presented symbolically, we have:
x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 6
Synthetic division is very useful for determining roots of polynomials. Once we have roots, we can easily write the corresponding factors.
Write out possible factors of 6: {±1, ±2, ±3, ±6}
Let's determine whether or not -2 is a root. Set up synthetic division as follows:
-2 / 1 -2 -5 6
-2 8 -6
-----------------------
1 -4 3 0
since the remainder is zero, we know for sure that -2 is a root and (x + 2) is a factor of the given polynomial. The coefficients of the product of the remaining two factors are {1, -4, 3}. This trinomial factors easily into {(x -1), (x - 3)}.
Thus, the three factors of the given polynomial are {(x + 2), (x - 1), (x - 3)}
Both functions decrease at (-1, 2)
<h3>How to determine the decreasing intervals of the function?</h3>

The polynomial function f(x) is represented by the graph.
From the graph, the polynomial function decreases at (-2, 2)
The absolute function is given as;
f(x) = =5|x + 1| + 10
The vertex of the above function is
Vertex = (-1, 10)
Because a is negative (a= -5), the vertex is a maximum.
This means that the function decreases at (-1, ∞)
So, we have
(-2, 2) and (-1, ∞)
Combine both intervals
(-1, 2)
This means that both functions decrease at (-1, 2)
See attachment 2 for the number line that represents the interval where both functions are decreasing

4 Americans can arrange themselves in 4! ways.similarly ,3 Frenchmen can arrange themselves in 3! ways.3 Englishmen can arrange themselves in 3! ways.now these 3 groups of same nationality people can be arranged among themselves in 3! ways.so total number of ways = 3!4!3!3!
