The answer is letter c. x2-8x+24-[72/(x+3)]. If you do not know how to solve this using the long division method, you can always evaluate the options through the process of elimination first. Since the degree of the other factor is already 1 (x to the power of 1), you know that option d. is not the correct answer because you know that the other factor must be raised to the power of 2. That leaves us with a, b and c. Working backwards and multiplying the given factor (x+3) with the factor in b, gives us x3-5x2+72. So from there, you know that you have to eliminate 72, which can be removed when it is subtracted by itself. Letter c does just that. Try multiplying (x+3) and option c for yourself :).

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial : x³ - 5x²

Factors of given polynomial = x + 3

Let, p(x) = x³ - 5x²

To get other factor of p(x), we divide p(x) by given factor.

On division we get,

Quotient = x² - 8x + 24

Remainder = -72

So another factor is x^2-8x+24-\frac{72}{x+3}

Therefore, Option C is correct.

Solve the system of equations by elimintion express the solution as and order paired
tester [92]
First convert the first equation to combine like terms. Then set your equations up as an addition problem. You want at least one of your variables (y) to be of opposite values so the will cancel out to leave you with just one variable (x). Plug in 1/3 for the x into one of the equations to solve for y. Then write as an ordered pair.
