Eighteen cause 27 divided by 3 is 9. so 9 x 2 = 18
        
                    
             
        
        
        
The first step is to determine the zeros of p(x).
From the Remainder Theorem, 
p(a) = 0  => (x-a) is a factor of p(x), and x=a is a zero of p(x).
Try x=3:
p(3) = 3^3 - 3*3^2 - 16*3 + 48 = 27 - 27 - 48 + 48 = 0
Therefore x=3 is a zero, and (x-3) is a factor of p(x).
Perform long division.
                    x²             -  16
      -------------------------------------
x-3 |  x³  -  3x²  -  16x  +  48
         x³  -  3x²
        -----------------------------------
                         -  16x  + 48
                         -  16x  +  48         
Note that x² - 6 = (x+4)(x-4).
Therefore the complete factorization of p(x) is
p(x) = (x-3)(x+4)(x-4)
To determine when p(x) is negative, we shall test between the zeros of p(x)
   x      p(x)       Sign
----  ---------    ---------
  -4          0    
   0        48         +
   3           0
3.5   -1.875         -
   4           0
p(x) is negative in the interval x = (3, 4).

Answer:
 First option:  
Step-by-step explanation:
 The missing graph is attached.
 
 The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:
 
 Where "m" is the slope and  "b" is the y-intercept.
 We can observe that:
 1. Both lines have the same y-intercept:
 
 2. The lines are solid, then the symbol of the inequality must be 
 or 
.
 3. Since both shaded regions are below the solid lines, the symbol is:
 
 Based on this and looking at the options given, we can conclude that the graph represents the following system of inequalities:
 
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
P(x) = a(x - 2)2(x + 4), a ≠ 0
  
Use the given point (0,-10) to find a.
  
-10 = a(0 - 2)2(0 + 5) = a(4)(5) = 20a
a = -10/20 = -1/2
  
P(x) = (-1/2)(x - 2)2(x + 5)
  
You can expand this if you wish
 
        
             
        
        
        
This is solved by breaking the equasion down.
2 { 5 [12 + 5 (500 - 100) + 399 ]}
2 { 5 [12 + 5 (400) + 399]}
2 { 5 [12 + 2000 + 399]}
2 { 5 [2411]}
2 {12055}
24110
