Answer:

<h2>The answer is 87</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² + 14x - 5

To find the reminder when f(x) is divided by x - 5 , substitute the value of x into the above formula

That's

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

So we have

f(5) = 5² + 14(5) - 8

f(5) = 25 + 70 - 8

f(5) = 95 - 8

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad(\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-1})\\\\\\% slope = m\stackrel{slope}{m}\implies\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{\stackrel{y_2}{-1}-\stackrel{y1}{4}}}{\underset{run}{\underset{x_2}{4}-\underset{x_1}{(-1)}}}\implies \cfrac{-5}{4+1}\implies \cfrac{-5}{5}\implies -1$

$\begin{array}{|c|ll}\cline{1-1}\textit{point-slope form}\\\cline{1-1}\\y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\\cline{1-1}\end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{4}=\stackrel{m}{-1}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-1)}]\\\\\\y-4=-1(x+1)\implies y-4=-x-1\implies \blacktriangleright y = -x+3 \blacktriangleleft$
