Answer:

P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x+3)(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: P(x)=x⁴+3x³-28x²-36x+144

It is a polynomial with degree 4.

It should maximum four factor.

Hit and trial error method.

Put x = 2 into P(x)

P(2)=2⁴+3×2³-28×2²-36×2+144

P(2) = 0

So, x-2 would be factor of P(x)

Now divide x⁴+3x³-28x²-36x+144 by x-2 to get another factors

(x^4+3x^3-28x^2-36x+144)\div (x-2) = x^3+5x^2-18x-72

P(x)=(x-2)(x^3+5x^2-18x-72)

Put x = 4

P(4) = 0

now divide x^3+5x^2-18x-72 by x-4

(x^3+5x^2-18x-72)\div (x-4) = x^2+9x+18

P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x^2+9x+18)

Now factor x^2+9x+18

\Rightarrow x^2+9x+18

\Rightarrow (x+6)(x+3)

Complete factor of P(x)

P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x+3)(x+6)

Is this true or false need answer asap
VLD [36.1K]
Answer: True

Step-by-Step Explanation:

=> 2x + 3y = -7 (Eq. 1)
=> -x = 2y (Eq. 2)
=> x = 1, y = -3

Substitute values of ‘x’ and ‘y’ in Eq. 1 :-

=> 2x + 3y = -7
= 2(1) + 3(-3) = -7
= 2 + -9 = -7
=> -7 = -7
=> LHS = RHS

Therefore, it is a Solution.

Answer:

A.

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. When adding a negative number to a positive, you subtract. 2.3 - 2.3 will equal 0.

B. When adding two negative numbers, you get an even smaller negative number. (-3.7) + (-4.1) = -7.8

C. When subtracting a negative number, the two negative signs become a positive. -12/4 is equal to 3. -2.6 + 3 is 0.4, which is positive.

D. 5/2 is the same as 2.5. If you subtract 2.5 from 2.5, you will get 0, which is not negative.

E. Two negative signs make a positive, so 72 + 100 is positive, not negative.
