Why is (x-3) NOT a factor of x3+2x2-5x-6

Mathematics

As the expression is not equal to zero on x=3, x-3 is not a factor of given expression

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

x^3+2x^2-5x-6

We have to check if x-3 is a factor of given expression

In order for x-3 to be a factor of expression, we have to put x-3 = 0 => x=3 in expression.

If the expression is zero at x=3 then x-3 is a factor of expression otherwise not.

So putting x=333 in expression

=(3)^3+2(3)^2-5(3)-6\\= 27+2(9) - 15-6\\= 27+18-15-6\\= 45-21\\=24 \neq 0

As the expression is not equal to zero on x=3, x-3 is not a factor of given expression

You would need to do 10,125/45 = n, and in which case we just solve. 
10,215/45=227, so there are 227 napkins in each box.


Hope this helps and have a nice day:)

sergey [27]

Answer:

<h2>(2a − 5 + b) · 5</h2><h2>10×(a − 2.5 + 0.5b)</h2><h2>(−2a + 5 − b) ⋅ (−5)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

10a-25+5b\\\\-2(-5a-25+5b)=(-2)(-5a)+(-2)(-25)+(-2)(5b)\\=10a+50-10b\qquad NOT\\\\(2a-5+b)(5)=(2a)(5)+(-5)(5)+(b)(5)=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\10(a-2.5+0.5b)=(10)(a)+(10)(-2.5)+(10)(0.5b)\\=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\(-2a+5-b)(-5)=(-2a)(-5)+(5)(-5)+(-b)(-5)\\=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\-10(-a-2.5-0.5b)=(-10)(-a)+(-10)(-2.5)+(-10)(-0.5b)\\=10a+25+5b\qquad NOT
