Answer:
a = -86.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Factor Theorem, if x + 4 is a factor then P(-4) = 0, so:
P(-4) = 2(-4)^3 - 11(-4)^2 + a(-4)- 40 = 0
-128 - 176 - 4a - 40 = 0
-4a = 128 +176 + 40
-4a = 344
a = -86.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x < -2
Discussion:
7 < 3 - 2x => Add 2x to both sides
7 + 2x < 3 - (2x - 2x) => As 2x -2x = 0
7 + 2x < 3 => Subtract 7 from both sides
(7-7) + 2x < 3 - 7 => As 7-7 = 0 and 3-7 = -4
2x < -4 => Divide both sides by 2
x < -4./2 = -2
Thank you,

(X+2)(3x+1) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Answer: Step E
Step-by-step explanation:
The error is in the last step. In Step D, we see that we're supposed to subtract the second part from the first part. We also see we have the terms 2x-8 in the numerator on the right. Since we're subtracting, the expression should actually be -2x +8. 3 -2x +8 should be -2x +11 which is not the numerator in Step E so the last step is wrong.
BC would equal the same as EF, they are similar. All you would have to do is figure out the pre image (BC) of EF.
