That means that, for example:
if your number is 49 the nearest whole number would be 50.
so by saying estimate the figure to the nearest whole number , they are basically saying find your nearest whole number.
F( x ) = ( x - 1 ) ( x + 2i )( x - 2i ), because the zeroes are 1, -2i, +2i ;
f( x ) = ( x - 1 )( x^2 - 4i^2 ) = ( x - 1 )( x^2 + 4 ) = x^3 - x^2 + 4x - 4 ;
ANSWER
When 
is written in the form 
, it looks like 
EXPLANATION
To write in the form , we have to complete the squares.
We add and subtract half the coefficient of 
square.
The first three terms of the function is now a perfect square.
We now simplify rto obtain,
Answer:
factors are any group of number or expressions which, when multiplied, produce another number or expression.
Basic example: 4 can be broken into 2 factors---2 and 2. 2 times 2 = 4
Example using an unknown:
2X + 6 = 2 * (X + 3)
In the given problem, there is no whole-number common factor. A normal convention would be to factor based on the unknown term----thus 8X is factored into 8 and X.
So: 8X + 7 = 8 ( X + 7/8 )
The following would also be correct:
8X + 7 = 4 ( 2X + 7/4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
