Answer:
a = -86.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Factor Theorem, if x + 4 is a factor then P(-4) = 0, so:
P(-4) = 2(-4)^3 - 11(-4)^2 + a(-4)- 40 = 0
-128 - 176 - 4a - 40 = 0
-4a = 128 +176 + 40
-4a = 344
a = -86.
It will be $3.68 for each rose bush because if she bought 6 of them for $22.08 then 22.08/6=3.68
Your answer would be 9 1/8
Answer:
Remember that a perfect square trinomial can be factored into the form (a+b)^2
or (a-b)^2
Examples:
(x+2)(x+2) is a perfect sq trinomial --> x^2+4x+4
(x-3)(x-3) is a perfect sq trinomial --> x^2-6x+9
(x+2)(x-3) is not a perfect square trinomial because its not in the form (a+b)^2 or (a-b)^2
Now to answer your question,
for the first one, x^2-16x-64, you cannot factor it so it is not a perfect square trinomial
for the second one, 4x^2 + 12x + 9, you can factor that into (2x+3)(2x+3) = (2x+3)^2 so this is a perfect square trinomial
for the third one, x^2+20x+100 can be factored into (x+10)(x+10) so this is also a perfect square trinomial
for the fourth one, x^2+4x+16 cannot be factored so this is not a perfect square trinomial
Therefore, your answer is choices 2 and 3
