Taking

and differentiating both sides with respect to

yields
![\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[3x^2+y^2\bigg]=\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[7\bigg]\implies 6x+2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cbigg%5B3x%5E2%2By%5E2%5Cbigg%5D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cbigg%5B7%5Cbigg%5D%5Cimplies%206x%2B2y%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20dy%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%3D0)
Solving for the first derivative, we have

Differentiating again gives
![\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[6x+2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\bigg]=\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[0\bigg]\implies 6+2\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)^2+2y\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cbigg%5B6x%2B2y%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20dy%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cbigg%5D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cbigg%5B0%5Cbigg%5D%5Cimplies%206%2B2%5Cleft%28%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20dy%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cright%29%5E2%2B2y%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%5E2y%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%5E2%7D%3D0)
Solving for the second derivative, we have

Now, when

and

, we have
-- The area of the long skinny piece on top is (6 x 33) = 198
-- The length of the dotted line between the top and bottom pieces is (33-21) = 12
-- The area of the bottom piece is (12 x 15) = 180
-- The area of the whole thing is (198 + 180) = 378
-- The perimeter of the whole thing is (33 + 6 + 21 + 15 + 12 + 15 + 6) = 108
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Factorize:

<u>Factor Theorem</u>
If f(a) = 0 for a polynomial then (x - a) is a factor of the polynomial f(x).
Substitute x = 1 into the function:

Therefore, (x - 1) is a factor.
As the polynomial is cubic:

Expanding the brackets:


Comparing coefficients with the original polynomial:



Therefore:

Cannot be factored any further.
