Answer:
c. (x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
using factor theorem
if x - 3 is a factor then p(a) = 0
p(a)= x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x + 12
a.(x-3)
p(3) = (3)^3 - 3(3)^2 - 4(3) + 12
= 27 - 27 - 12 + 12
= 0
therefore x-3 is a factor
b.(x + 2)
p(-2) = (-2)^3 - 3(-2)^2 - 4(-2) + 12
= -8 -12 + 8 + 12
,= 0
therefore x + 2 is a factor
c.(x + 3)
p(-3) = (-3)^3 - 3(-3)^2 - 4(-3) + 12
= -27 -27 + 12 + 12
= -30
therefore x + 3 is not a factor
d.(x-2)
p(2) = (2)^3 - 3(2)^2 - 4(2) + 12
= 8 -12 - 8 + 12
= 0
therefore x - 2 is a factor
Answer:
12 cups of sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
i hope it right
X-int:let y=0
3x-2(0)=18
3x=18
divide both sides by 3
therefore x=6
y-int:let x=0
3(0)-2y=18
-2y=18
we divide both side by -2
therefore y=-9
