The first step is to determine the zeros of p(x).
From the Remainder Theorem,
p(a) = 0 => (x-a) is a factor of p(x), and x=a is a zero of p(x).
Try x=3:
p(3) = 3^3 - 3*3^2 - 16*3 + 48 = 27 - 27 - 48 + 48 = 0
Therefore x=3 is a zero, and (x-3) is a factor of p(x).
Perform long division.
x² - 16
-------------------------------------
x-3 | x³ - 3x² - 16x + 48
x³ - 3x²
-----------------------------------
- 16x + 48
- 16x + 48
Note that x² - 6 = (x+4)(x-4).
Therefore the complete factorization of p(x) is
p(x) = (x-3)(x+4)(x-4)
To determine when p(x) is negative, we shall test between the zeros of p(x)

Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount of punch that Jennifer made for her party is 5 Liters. Her brother made another 750 milliliters.
1000 milliliters = 1 liter
750 milliliters = 750/1000 = 0.75Liter
if they combine the two batches, the total amount made would be
5 + 0.75 = 5.75Liter
= 5.75 × 1000 = 5750 milliliters
The number of 180 milliliters servings would be
5750/180 = 31 servings
There would be leftovers of 170 milliliters
V = x/t = 4.5 mil / 3 h = 1.5 mph
Since, v = 1.5 mph (or we can say that v is constant), distance and time vary directly and the constant of variation is 1.5 mph.
