I think it is. Dont take my word for it tho
(x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15 as there is no remaider.
<h3>What is a factor of a polynomial?</h3>
We know that if x = a is one of the roots of a given polynomial x - a = 0 is a factor of the given polynomial.
To confirm if x - a = 0 is a factor of a polynomial we replace f(x) with f(a) and if the remainder is zero then it is confirmed that x - a = 0 is a factor.
Given a polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.
If (x - 5) is it's factor then f(5) = 0.
∴ f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.
f(5) = 5³ - 5² - 17(5) - 15.
f(5) = 125 - 25 - 85 - 15.
f(5) = 0.
So, the remainder is zero hence (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

Answer:
3xy² - 14y²
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope that this is the problem
- x²y + [ - (x²y - 2xy² + y²) + (xy² - 3y² + x²y)] - (10y² - x²y)
= - x²y + [ - x²y + 2xy² - y² + xy² - 3y² + x²y] - 10y² + x²y
Now combine like terms in the [ ].
= - x²y + [ -x²y + x²y + 2xy² + xy² - y² - 3y² ] - 10y² + x²y
= - x²y + [ 0 + 3xy² - 4y²] - 10y² + x²y
= - x²y + 3xy² - 4y² -10y² + x²y Now combine like terms
= (-x²y + x²y) + 3xy² + (-4y² - 10y²)
= 0 + 3xy² - 14y²
= 3xy² - 14y² or y²(3x - 14)
25 because it s a less common denominaor
(5,0) and (10,-10) is on the line and (5,0) is not so the answer is (5,0)
