Answer:
I say "ok" to my parents when they ask a question as a joke, but that has happened to me and it's just annoying. If you don't find it funny then don't laugh at all and don't say anything-
Yes, (x - 3) is a factor of the given polynomial.
If (x - 3) was a factor of the polynomial, then 3 would be one of the zeros of the function. That means if you input 3 into the function, you will get an output of zero.
In this case, inputting 3 does produce 0. Therefore, it is a factor.
QUESTION 1: In these type of question, the easiest way to get the answer is try to plug in the x and y values from the options given in the equation given, So in the first question all the choice except C are more then 14 if you plug in x and y's, for eg, if you plug in x = 3 and y = 2 , you get (3+3)2 = 14 6 x 2 = 14 12 is not equal to 14, so this eliminates this choice but if you chose C you get, (11+3)1 = 14 14 = 14 so this makes C the solution for first question and for the second question do the same thing, and the answer will be D. Hope this helps
QUESTION 2: 5xy + 9 = 44
5xy = 35
xy = 7
solution pairs are:
C. (1, 7) and (7, 1)
not mentioned: (-1.-7) and (-7, -1)
Hope this helps
