Answer:
Factor this polynomial:
F(x)=x^3-x^2-4x+4
Try to find the rational roots. If p/q is a root (p and q having no factors in common), then p must divide 4 and q must divide 1 (the coefficient of x^3).
The rational roots can thuis be +/1, +/2 and +/4. If you insert these values you find that the roots are at
x = 1, x = 2 and x = -2. This means that
x^3-x^2-4x+4 = A(x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 2)
A = 1, as you can see from equation the coefficient of x^3 on both sides.
Typo:
The rational roots can be
+/-1, +/-2 and +/-4

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
consider the two points. Gradient=change in y/change in x. So 4/2=2

Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 x = -2
You want the value of x. x is being multiplied by 1/4. To get x alone on the left side, you need to divide both sides by 1/4. Dividing by 1/4 is the same as multiplying by 4.
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.
4 * 1/4 x = -2 * 4
4 * 1/4 = 1, so on the left side you get 1x which is just x.
x = 8
Answer: -8
The answer is c bc x is 3 and more
