Is x-3 a factor of the polynomial p(x)=2x4-9x3+15x2-22x+12 and for waht reason
andre [41]
Yes, (x - 3) is a factor of the given polynomial.

If (x - 3) was a factor of the polynomial, then 3 would be one of the zeros of the function. That means if you input 3 into the function, you will get an output of zero.

In this case, inputting 3 does produce 0. Therefore, it is a factor.

BRAINLIEST ANSWER!! The product of 3, and a number increased by seven, is -36. Translate the equation, then solve.
EleoNora [17]

Product is multiplication.

Let the number = x


3 *( X+7) = -36

Use distributive property:

3x +21 = -36

Subtract 21 from each side:

3x = -57

Divide both sides by 3:

x = -57 /3

x = -19


Check: 3 * (-19 +7) = 3 * -12 = -36


The number is -19
