Answer:

2(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 4)

or 2x^3 - 26x - 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the polynomial if factor form:

P(x) = a(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 4)  where a is some constant.

Now, since f(-2) = 12  we can write :

12 = a(-2 + 3)(-2 + 1)(-2-4)

12 = 6a

a = 2.

So the polynomial is

2(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 4).

Expanded that is

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

= 2(x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x + 3x^2 - 9x - 12)

= 2x^3 - 26x - 24.

Line AB contains points A ( -3,5) and B (-3,3). Line AB has a slope that is
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

slope  that is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = A(- 3, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(- 3, 3)

m = \frac{3-5}{-3+3} = \frac{-2}{0}

Division by zero is undefined

Thus the slope of AB is undefined
