RUDIKE [14]3 years ago

In order to solve it, we need find the zero of the polynomial.

we find the zero of the polynomial by splitting the middle term method

2x2 -+ 4x - 16

= 2x2 + 8x - 4x -16

= 2x( x + 4)- 4(x + 4)
= (2x-)(x+4)

we find the zeroes of the factors

experimentally we find two values, 2 and -4.

Thus, values of x are 2 and -4

Three consecutive integers whose sum is -147
suter [353]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first integer be x

2nd integer = x + 1

3rd integer = x + 2

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -147

3x + 3 = -147

3x = -147 - 3

3x = -150

x = -150 ÷ 3

x = -50

The three consecutive integers are

-50, -49, -48
