x - 2 = 0 ,    x + 2 = 0  ,   x + 1 = 0 ,  x -1 = 0   x  = 2 ,      x  =  - 2  ,  x  = - 1    ,   x = 1So we shall check these by putting in 5x^3+8x^2−7x−6   one by one.

Putting x = - 2 ,  we get 5(-2)^3+8(-2)^2−7(-2)−6= 5 (-8) + 8(4) +14 - 6= -40 + 32 + 8 = 0So  x + 2  is a factor of given equation.

Putting x = 2 ,  we get 5(2)^3+8(2)^2−7(2)−6= 5 (8) + 8(4) -14 - 6= 40 + 32 -20= 52So  x - 2  is a not a factor of given equation.

Putting x = - 1 ,  we get 5(-1)^3+8(-1)^2−7(-1)−6= 5 (-1) + 8(1) +7 - 6= -5 + 8 + 1 = 4So  x + 1  is not a factor of given equation.

Putting x = 1 ,  we get 5(1)^3+8(1)^2−7(1)−6= 5 (1) + 8(1) -7 - 6= 5 + 8 -13 = 0So  x -1  is a factor of given equation.

A population of ants is 10,000 at the start of April. Since then, it triples each month.
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Month since April                                   Number of Ants

          0                                                         10,000

           1                                                         30,000

          2                                                         90,000

          3                                                        270,000

          4                                                         810,000

Every month, the ant population triples so the multiply the previous population by 3 to find out the new population.

0 months from April = 10,000 * 1 = 10,000 ants

1 month from April = 10,000 * 3 = 30,000 ants

2 months from April = 30,000 * 3 = 90,000 ants

3 months from April = 90,000 * 3 = 270,000 ants

4 months from April = 270,000 * 3 = 810,000
