The question is asking for what the value of a is for the given polynomial.
They gave you a factor to that polynomial, (x+a), and told you that a can be any real number beside 0.
You might remember that when you factor an equation, all you're doing is finding for what value of x will give you an answer of 0.
This is what you're doing now but in reverse. You're given x+a as a factor, so you know that x=-a will make the function equal 0.
So plug x=-a into the function and solve for a. You'd find that you get a=0 and a=2; however, the question stated that a≠0, so the only answer left is a=2.
The answer is C because you can only roll an 8 with a show of 6 when you roll 6 and 1 which gives 7 and 6 and 2 which gives 8

Answer:
From given, we have,
Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 1/2 times Theresa's height.
Steve says he's 6 inches shorter than 1 1/3 times Theresa's height.
Let the height of Theresa be "x" inches.
So, we get,
For Paul, 1 1/2 x - 16 = T
⇒ 3/2 x - 16 = T ......(1)
For Steve, 1 1/3 x - 6 = T
⇒ 4/3 x - 6 = T .........(2)
equating equations (1) and (2), we get,
3/2 x - 16 = 4/3 x - 6
6 - 16 = 4/3 x - 3/2 x
-10 = (8 - 9)/6 x
-60 = -x
x = 60 inches.
Therefore, Theresa is 60 inches tall.
