Answer:
(x-8) is the factor.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given trinomial is
.
We need to find the factor of this trinomial.

The factors of
is (x-2) and (x-8).
So, the factor of
is (x-8). Hence, the correct option is (B).
Answer:
FG = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given:
FH = 9x + 15
GH = 5x + 4
FG = ?
From the question given above, we can say that G is the midpoint of FH. This implies that:
FH = FG + GH
With the above idea in mind, we can obtain FG as follow:
FH = 9x + 15
GH = 5x + 4
FG = ?
FH = FG + GH
9x + 15 = FG + 5x + 4
Rearrange
FG = 9x + 15 - 5x - 4
FG = 9x - 5x + 15 - 4
FG = 4x + 11
Next, we shall determine the value of x. This can be obtained as follow:
Since G is the midpoint of FH, it therefore means that FG and GH are equal i.e
FG = GH
With the above idea in mind, we can obtain the value of x as follow:
FG = 4x + 11
GH = 5x + 4
FG = GH
4x + 11 = 5x + 4
Collect like terms
11 - 4 = 5x - 4
7 = x
x = 7
Thus, we can obtain the value of FG as follow:
FG = 4x + 11
x = 7
FG = 4x + 11
FG = 4(7) + 11
FG = 28 + 11
FG = 39
***Check ***
FH = 9x + 15
x = 7
FH = 9(7) + 15 = 63 + 15 = 78
GH = 5x + 4
x = 7
GH = 5(7) + 4 = 35 + 4 = 39
FG = 4x + 11
x = 7
FG = 4(7) + 11 = 28 + 11 = 39
FH = FG + GH
FH = 78
FG = 39
GH = 39
FH = FG + GH
78 = 39 + 39
78 = 78
Answer:
D=1
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x)=x³-9x²+27x-25
g(2)=(2)³-9(2)²+27(2)-25
