I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. A polynomial function has a zero value at x=3 for the <span>expression where one factor is x-3. This factor when x=3 will always result to a zero value no matter what you multiply to it. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Answer:  The correct option is (D) (x - 3).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a polynomial function has a zero at x = 3.

We are to select the correct expression that must be a factor of the polynomial.

<em><u>FACTOR THEOREM :  </u></em> The theorem states that if x = a is a zero of a polynomial p(x), then (x - a) will be a factor of the polynomial p(x).

In case of our given polynomial, since x = 3 is a zero of the polynomial, so by factor theorem, we can say that

(x - 3) is a factor of the given polynomial.

Thus, the required factor is (x - 3).

Option (D) is CORRECT.

What two consecutive numbers have a sum of 53? Thanks! :P
Musya8 [376]
Let's the name the first number x and the consecutive number x + 1. The sum of both of these numbers equals to 53.

We now have our equation:

x + x + 1 = 53

Now solve for x.

x + x + 1 = 53
2x + 1 = 53 <-- Combine like terms
2x = 52 <-- Subtract 1 from each side
x = 26

So, the first number is 26 and the second number is 27.
