Answer:

Factor this polynomial:

F(x)=x^3-x^2-4x+4

Try to find the rational roots. If p/q is a root (p and q having no factors in common), then p must divide 4 and q must divide 1 (the coefficient of x^3).

The rational roots can thuis be +/1, +/2 and +/4. If you insert these values you find that the roots are at

x = 1, x = 2 and x = -2. This means that

x^3-x^2-4x+4 = A(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)

A = 1, as you can see from equation the coefficient of x^3 on both sides.

Typo:

The rational roots can be

+/-1, +/-2 and +/-4

Answer:

66600 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

First draw a rectangle and draw a diagonal line in the middle. The line makes two triangles, and the line itself is the hypotenuse. So, to find hypotenuse, the formula is:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

The variable c defines the hypotenuse. Therefore:

a = 150

b = 210

Let's solve:

150^2 + 210^2 = c^2

22500 + 44100 = c^2

66600 = c^2

Therefore, in conclusion, the result we are getting is 66600 ft.
