Determine if x − 2 is a factor of p ( x ) = x 4 − 3 x 2 + 2 x − 8 , and explain why.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Cerrena [4.2K]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

If x − 2 is a factor of p(x), then p(2) will equal 0.

p(x) = x⁴ − 3x² + 2x − 8

p(2) = 2⁴ − 3(2)² + 2(2) − 8

p(2) = 16 − 12 + 4 − 8

p(2) = 0

So x − 2 is indeed a factor of p(x).

Please help me I need this answer and I can not figure it out im not smart so could you please help
Rom4ik [11]

So really all you have to do is simply the expressions on top to match them.

Starting with (4t-8/5)-(3-4/3t), distribute the negative sign to the right portion in parentheses, then distribute it all out and you will get 16/3t- 23/5

Basically, use distribution to simplify, here's all the matches:

(4t-8/5)-(3-4/3t) --> 16/3t- 23/5

5(2t+1)+(-7t+28) --> 3t+33

(-9/2t+3)+(7/4t+33) --> -11/4t+36

3(3t-4)-(2t+10) --> 7t-22
