Answer: The answer is YES.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to check whether (x - 8) is a factor of the function f(x)=-2x^3+17x^2-64.

Factor Theorem states that if (x - a) is a factor of P(x), the we must have P(a) = 0.

We have

f(8)\\\\=-2\times 8^3+17\times 8^2-64\\\\=-2\times 512+17\times 64-64\\\\=-2048+16\times 64\\\\=-1024+1024\\\\=0.

Thus, (x - 8) is a factor of f(x).

Yes when the function f(x) = -2x3+17x2-64 is divided by x-8, the remainder is zero. Therefore, x-8 is a factor of f(x) = -2x3+17x2-64

Which is the best example of a down payment?
Maru [420]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Proof by some contradictions:

D is not a good example because she does not pay anything upfront

B is not a good example because he pays <u>everything </u>upfront with some of the money from a third party

A is not right because the 500 is a security deposit, which is a different concept from a down payment

Therefore the answer should be C, where money is payed upfront and payed after he receives the product.
