8 0

Answer:

P(2)=0 then x-2 is a factor of P(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if (x-2) is a factor just plug in 2 for x into the polynomial expression.

2(2)^3-3(2)^2-17(2)+30

2(8)-3(4)-34+30

16-12-34+30

4-34+30

-30+30

Since P(2)=0 then x-2 is a factor

sdas [7]

Answer:

Total space in the box is 75.2 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cone:

It is three dimension shape.
It has a vertex.
The slant height of a cone $l^2=r^2+h^2$ , $l$ = slant height, r= radius of the base, h= height
The lateral surface area is πrl
The volume of a cone is $\frac13 \pi r^2h$ .
