X = 6
28 = -2 - 5x
28 + 2 = 5x
30 = 5x
30/5 = 5x/5 (we divide by five on both side because we want x to be by itself)
6 = x

Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways to go at this.
My first choice is to use a graphing calculator. It shows the function has a zero at x=5, so x-5 is a factor.
Another good choice is to use synthetic division (2nd attachment). If the remainder is zero, then x-5 is a factor. It is and it is.

You can also evaluate the function at x=5. The remainder theorem tells you that if the value is zero, then x-5 is a factor. Evaluating the polynomial written in Horner form is a lot like synthetic division.
(((x -4)x -15)x +58)x -40 for x=5 is ... (-10·5 +58)5 -40 = 40-40 = 0
The value of h(5) is zero, so x-5 is a factor of h(x).
20L = 20,000mL. 20,000 / (22+3) people = 800mL/person
5/12 - 4/5 = -23/60. You can't simplify -23/60. Hope this is right
