Answer:

It is a factor

Step-by-step explanation:

[x³ -7x² + 8x + 16] ÷ (x + 1)

[x³ + x² - 8x² - 8x + 16x + 16] ÷ (x + 1)

[x²(x + 1) - 8x(x + 1) + 16(x + 1)] ÷ (x + 1)

x² - 8x + 16 and tye remainder is 0.

So, yes (x + 1) is a factor

Simply subtract the height of Pancho’s sandcastle (3/5 of a foot) minus the height of his sister’s sandcastle (2/5 of a foot) to find a difference of 1/5 of a foot, meaning Pancho’s sandcastle was 1/5 of a foot taller than his sister’s sandcastle.
