If you're asking for extrema, like the previous posting
well
like the previous posting, since this rational is identical, just that the denominator is negative, the denominator yields no critical points
and the numerator, yields no critical points either, so the only check you can do is for the endpoints, of 0 and 4
f(0) = 0 <---- only maximum, and thus absolute maximum
f(4) ≈ - 0.19 <---- only minimum, and thus absolute minimum

Answer:
YES
NO
NO
Step-by-step explanation:
The given polynomial is:
(x - a) is a factor of a polynomial iff x = a is a solution to the polynomial.
To check if (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial f(x), we substitute x = 5 and check if it satisfies the equation.
∴ f(5) = 5³ + 4(5)² - 25(5) - 100
= 125 + 100 - 125 - 100
= 225 - 225
= 0
We see, x = 5 satisfies f(x). So, (x - 5) is a factor to the polynomial.
Now, to check (x + 2) is a factor.
i.e., to check x = - 2 satisfies f(x) or not.
f(-2) = (-2)³ + 4(-2)² - 25(-2) - 100
= -8 + 16 + 50 - 100
= -108 + 66
≠ 0
Therefore, (x + 2) is not a factor of f(x).
To check (x - 4) is a factor.
∴ f(4) = 4³ + 4(4)² - 25(4) - 100
= 64 + 64 - 100 - 100
= 128 - 200
≠ 0
Therefore, (x - 4) is not a factor of f(x).
