Answer:

The y-intercept is (0,-12).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is $y=x^2-x-12$ .

Now question says to find the y-intercept of the given parabola $y=x^2-x-12$ .

We know that y-intercept means the y-value when x-value equals 0

so let's plug x=0 into given equation $y=x^2-x-12$ then solve that for y.

$y=x^2-x-12$

$y=0^2-0-12$

$y=0-0-12$

$y=-12$

Hence the y-intercept is (0,-12).

If (x+1) is a factor of x^3+2x^2-x-2, find the remaining factors.

Alexxandr [17]

Using synthetic division to divide x³ + 2x² - x - 2. Since (x + 1) is the factor, we can divide by -1. See the attached file for the synthetic division. After that, we are left with x² + x - 2. This can easily be factored into (x + 2)(x - 1). The remaining factors are (x + 2) and (x - 1).
