Answer: No, x+3 is not a factor of 2x^2-2x-12
========================================================
Explanation:
Let p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
If we divide p(x) over (x-k), then the remainder is p(k). I'm using the remainder theorem. A special case of the remainder theorem is that if p(k) = 0, then x-k is a factor of p(x).
Compare x+3 = x-(-3) to x-k to find that k = -3.
Plug x = -3 into the function
p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
p(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - 2(-3) - 12
p(-3) = 12
We don't get 0 as a result so x+3 is not a factor of p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
----------------------------------------
Let's see what happens when we factor p(x)
2x^2 - 2x - 12
2(x^2 - x - 6)
2(x - 3)(x + 2)
The factors here are 2, x-3 and x+2
Answer:the answer this is negative 3

Answer:
y = square root x2 - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
16x³ - 54
= 2(8x³ - 27)
= 2(2x - 3)(4x² + 6x + 9) ← answer
Answer:
n = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
5(n-7)=2(n+14)
Distribute
5n -35 = 2n+28
Subtract 2n from each side
5n-2n -35 = 2n-2n +28
3n-35 =28
Add 35 to each side
3n-35+35 = 28+35
3n = 63
Divide by 3
3n/3 = 63/3
n =21
