Answer:
k = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
The remainder theorem tells you that the remainder from division f(x)/(x -k) is f(k). You want the value of k such that ...
f(k) = -15
Looking on the given graph, you find that k must be -4. That is, ...
f(-4) = -15
k = -4
_____
The divisor with k=-4 is (x -(-4)) = (x +4). The second attachment shows the division of f(x) by (x+4). The remainder is shown on the bottom line.

16. There are 3 right triangles, 3 Pythagorean theorem equations
x²+b²= 16²
12²+a² = x²
a²+4² = b²
combine equations using substitution to get in terms of only x
substitute b² for (a² +x²) in first equation
x²+a²+4²=16²
substitute a² for (x² - 12²)
x²+x²-12²+4² = 16²
solve for x
2x² - 144 + 16 = 256
2x² = 256 + 144 - 16
2x² = 384
x² = 384/2
x² = 192
x = 13.85
rounded to nearest tenth, x = 13.9

I think it is C. 60.
You can eliminate A because it is not a right angle, and D because the angle is bigger than the given angle. So it is between 50 and 60, and I hope this is right and the picture makes sense
