Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given function</u>:

If (x + 2) is a factor then:

Expand:



To find <em>a</em>, compare the coefficients of x³:

To find <em>b</em>, substitute the found value of <em>a</em> into the coefficient for x² and compare:



To find <em>c</em>, compare the constants:


Therefore:

Now factor (3x²-8x+5):



Therefore the factored function is:

<u>Zero Product Property</u>

To find the zeros, set each factor equal to zero and solve for x:



Therefore, the zeros of the function are:

1,000= 3x+x. 1,000=4x. 250=x. 1,000= 3(250) +250. 1,000=750+250. The bench costs $250.
14. Trick question, ignore the side.
Call the angle b.
34 + b + b = 180
2b = 146
b = 73
choice b
15. That's intersecting chords so the product of the segment lengths are equal:
5(22)=10 x
x = 5(22)/10 = 11
choice a
16. Intersecting tangent and secant;


Choice a
