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)
true: y = 9 would give us a straight line because of two reasons:
a: we don’t know if x is rising
b: we don’t have an x in the equation
No because 9/1,000 in decimals would be 0.009 because if the number was a 3 number then it would go in the tenths
7(x - 3) + 3(4 - x) = -8
7x - 21 + 12 - 3x = -8
7x - 3x = -8 + 21 - 12
4x = 1
x = 1/4
