Answer:

-8a-24b=28. A simplified equation would be -32a+28

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to multiple every number in the parentheses by (-4). This would give us -8,-24, and 28. Then we just replace the values and simplify by combining -8 and -24

Answer:

-8a - 24b + 28

Step-by-step explanation:

When you distribute, you multiply each number inside of the parentheses by the number outside of the parentheses.

Distribute:

-4(2a + 6b - 7)

-4(2a) -4(6b) -4(-7)

Multiply:

-4(2a) -4(6b) -4(-7)

-8a - 24b + 28

That's it! Hope this helps :)

(x² +9) and g(x) are factors of f(x).
That is, (x² +9)(g(x)) = f(x).

The roots of (x² +9) are roots of f(x). They are 3i and -3i.

The factor (x² +9) has degree 2, so f(x) has degree at least 2.

We cannot say anything about the x- or y-intercepts based on this information.

Imaginary roots usually come in even numbers (2, 4, etc.) for the polynomials we study. The information given here does not support the idea of 3 imaginary roots for f(x).
