Answer:

-\frac{16}{17}\\-0.94117

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\left(8\right)}}\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}}\\\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}=\frac{17}{32}\\\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}\\2\left(9+3\right)-4-3=17\\2\left(9+3\right)-4-3\\2\left(9+3\right)=24\\2\left(9+3\right)\\\mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:9+3=12\\=2\cdot \:12\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:12=24\\=24-4-3

\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:24-4-3=17\\=\frac{17}{4\cdot \:8}\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:4\cdot \:8=32\\=\frac{17}{32}\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}\\=-\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{17}{32}}\\\mathrm{Divide\:fractions}:\quad \frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}}=\frac{a\cdot \:d}{b\cdot \:c}\\=-\frac{1\cdot \:32}{2\cdot \:17}\\Refine\\=-\frac{32}{2\cdot \:17}\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:17=34\\=-\frac{32}{34}

\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:2\\=-\frac{16}{17}\\\mathrm{Decimal:\quad }\:-0.94117

Given g(x) = x² - 6x - 16, which statement is true?
inn [45]

The correct choice of this question with the given polynomial is <em>"The zeros are </em>-2<em> and </em>8<em>, because the factors of g are (x + </em>2<em>) and (x - </em>8<em>)"</em>. (Correct choice: H)

<h3>How to analyze a second orden polynomial with constant coefficients</h3>

In this case we have a second order polynomial of the form <em>x² - (r₁ + r₂) · x + r₁ · r₂</em>, whose solution is <em>(x - r₁) · (x - r₂)</em> and where <em>r₁</em> and <em>r₂</em> are the roots of the polynomial, which can be real or complex numbers but never both according the fundamental theorem of algebra.

If we know that <em>g(x) =</em> <em>x² -</em> 6 <em>· x -</em> 16, then the <em>factored</em> form of the expression is <em>g(x) = (x - </em>8<em>) · (x + </em>2<em>)</em>. Hence, the correct choice of this question with the given polynomial is <em>"The zeros are </em>-2<em> and </em>8<em>, because the factors of g are (x + </em>2<em>) and (x - </em>8<em>)"</em>. \blacksquare
