Answer:
Factor this polynomial:
F(x)=x^3-x^2-4x+4
Try to find the rational roots. If p/q is a root (p and q having no factors in common), then p must divide 4 and q must divide 1 (the coefficient of x^3).
The rational roots can thuis be +/1, +/2 and +/4. If you insert these values you find that the roots are at
x = 1, x = 2 and x = -2. This means that
x^3-x^2-4x+4 = A(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)
A = 1, as you can see from equation the coefficient of x^3 on both sides.
Typo:
The rational roots can be
+/-1, +/-2 and +/-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
It would be -7
Step-by-step explanation:
The 12 is negative, so instead of adding, you would subtract 5.
Answer:
Here is the answer...hope it helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Disagree, it is not always correct
Consider dividing 5 by 0.5, you get 10 which is greater than what you started with
