Answer:

DF = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Andrew was wrong in the assumption that DE = EF

Segments of tangents to a circle from the same external point are congruent

That is

EF = FG = 8

Then

DF = DE + EF = 6 + 8 = 14

Question 2 Determine if (x-3) is a factor to the polynomial P(x) = 2x³ +5x²-28x - 15. (3 marks)

tangare [24]

Answer:

(x - 3) is a factor of P(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

if (x - 3) is a factor of P(x) then P(3) = 0

P(3) = 2(3)³ + 5(3)² - 28(3) - 15

= 2(27) + 5(9) - 84 - 15

= 54 + 45 - 99

= 99 - 99

= 0

since P(3) = 0 then (x - 3) is a factor of P(x)
