Answer:
The fourth answer choice is the correct one: 2(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x²-18x+36/x-6 should be factored, as follows:
2(x²-9x+18) / (x-6) = 2(x - 3) (x - 6) / (x - 6)
Substituting x = 6 would result in division by zero and is thus not allowed.
Remembering this, we can reduce 2(x - 3) (x - 6) / (x - 6) to 2(x - 3) for x≠6.
Answer: A
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = x³ + 4x² + 7x + 6
possible rational roots are ±{1, 2, 3, 6}
Try x = -2
-2 | 1 4 7 6
<u>| ↓ -2 -4 -6</u>
1 2 3 0 ← remainder is 0 so x = -2 is a root ⇒ (x + 2) = 0
The factored polynomial x² + 2x + 3 = 0 is not factorable so use the quadratic formula to find the roots.
a=1, b=2, c=3
