Answer:
5 31/30 or 181/30
Step-by-step explanation:
5x³ + 8x² - 7x - 6
1)
x + 2 is a factor because when using synthetic division, the remainder is zero.
-2 | 5 8 -7 -6
<u>| ↓ -10 4 6 </u>
5 -2 -3 0 ← remainder is zero
2)
x + 2 is not a factor because when using synthetic division, the remainder is not zero.
-1 | 5 8 -7 -6
<u>| ↓ -5 -3 10 </u>
5 3 -10 4 ← remainder is not zero
Answer: A
The y-intercept is 43, which means that at 0 hours it was 43 degrees. The slope is -2 so it means that the temperature is decreasing at a rate of 2 degrees per hour.
