x^{3}+2x^{2} -5x-6

Horner:

2  1     2    -5   -6

   1     4     3     0

x^{3}+2x^{2} -5x-6=(x-2)(x^{2} +4x+3)

g(x)=x^{2} +4x+3

g(-1)=0

Horner

-1   1    4    3

    1    3     0

x^{2} +4x+3=(x+1)(x+3)

f(x)=x^{3}+2x^{2} -5x-6=(x-2)(x+1)(x+3)

Answer:

Since 2 or x-2= 0 is a zero of the function we divide it by the function to get the other factors

x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 ÷ x -2

We get

(x + 3)(x+1) = 0

Therefore x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 in factored form is

(x - 2)(x + 3)(x + 1)

Hope this helps.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

An experiment is a study carried out in a controlled environment where the person undertaking the research hopes to understand cause and effect between the independent and dependent variables. An example of a experiment is the palovian experiment

The independent variable is the variable that the person carrying out an experiment changes or manipulates. the independent variable usually have a direct effect on the dependent variable

The dependent variable is the variable that is being measured in an experiment. It is usually affected by the independent variable

Observational study is the study where the researcher observes and measures cause and effect between independent and dependent variables without trying  to control or influence the population
