Answer:

c. (x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

using factor theorem

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

p(a)= x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x + 12

a.(x-3)

p(3) = (3)^3 - 3(3)^2 - 4(3) + 12

= 27 - 27 - 12 + 12

= 0

therefore x-3 is a factor

b.(x + 2)

p(-2) = (-2)^3 - 3(-2)^2 - 4(-2) + 12

= -8 -12 + 8 + 12

,= 0

therefore x + 2 is a factor

c.(x + 3)

p(-3) = (-3)^3 - 3(-3)^2 - 4(-3) + 12

= -27 -27 + 12 + 12

= -30

therefore x + 3 is not a factor

d.(x-2)

p(2) = (2)^3 - 3(2)^2 - 4(2) + 12

= 8 -12 - 8 + 12

= 0

therefore x - 2 is a factor

On saturday, you bowl at mar vista bowl, where renting shoes costs $2 and each game bowled is $3.50. on sunday, you bowl at pinz
ExtremeBDS [4]

Given, at Mar Vista bowl the cost of renting shoes = $2.

The cost for each game bowled = $3.50

There are g games given. So the cost for g games bowled = $(3.50)(g) = $(3.50g)

The total amount soent at Mar Vista Bowl = $(2+3.50g)

At Pinz, the cost for shoe rental = $5.

The cost for each game bowled = $3.25.

So the cost for g game bowled = $(3.25)(g) = $(3.25g)

Total amount spent at Pinz = $(5+3.25g)

Given, the amount spent ateach of the places is same.

so we can write the equation as,

2+3.50g = 5+3.25g

We will move 3.25 to the left side by subtracting it from both sides. we will get,

2+3.50g-3.25g = 5+3.25g-3.25g

2+0.25g = 5

Now we will move 2 to the right side by subtracting 2 from both sides. We will get,

2+0.25g-2 = 5-2

0.25g = 3

Now to get g we will divide 0.25 to both sides. We will get,

\frac{0.25g}{0.25}= \frac{3}{0.25}

g =\frac{3}{0.25}

g = 12

So we have got the required answer.

The number of games bowled = 12.
