Two solutions of the polynomial equation are given. Use synthetic division to find any remaining solutions.
1 answer:
Answer:
The remaining solutions are -7 and 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The synthetic division is shown in the attachment. After dividing the first two found factors from the polynomial, the remaining quadratic is ...
x^2 +4x -21 = 0
Its rational roots will be factors of -21, and the sum of their opposites will be 4. Knowing that 21 = 3·7, we can guess that the remaining roots are -7 and 3. The synthetic division confirms that. (A graph also confirms it.)

Answer:
C. The electric car is not moving at 0 seconds and 12 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The table given is:
x 0 2 4 6 8 10 12
y 0 45 72 81 72 45 0
From the above table, we observe that the car starts from rest and its speed increases from 0 to 6 seconds, the maximum speed being 81 mph.
After 6 seconds, the speed of the car goes on decreasing till it stops at time equal to 12 seconds.
So, the speed of the car at the start when is 0 mph as it is at rest at that time.
Also, when the time is , the car has come to a stop and thus its speed has reduced to 0 mph again. So, the car is not moving after 12 seconds.
From the above conclusion, we can say that only option C is correct.
The electric car is not moving at 0 seconds and 12 seconds.
