Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
You know 0, 1, and -1 are not roots, because the constant is not 0 and the coefficients don't add to 0, even when negating the ones of odd-degree terms.
When evaluating polynomials by hand, it often works well to write them in "Horner form."
P(x) = ((-2x +1)x +4)x +4
P(2) = ((-2·2 +1)2 +4)2 +4 = (-3·2 +4)2 +4 = -2·2 +4
P(2) = 0
2 is a root of P(x).

I like a graphing calculator for questions like this. It can give an answer instantly. (The equation was pasted directly from the question into the calculator, so the solution took 2 clicks and 2 keystrokes.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
you could create an equation which would be 288= 90 + 20(x)
x = the amount of days needed
answer would be 10 days
Answer:
300 students
Step-by-step explanation:
To know the number of students, we must divide the total amount of milk spent by the amount spent for each and in this way we will obtain the value we are looking for, like this (both have the same units of L, so there is no problem ):
30 / (1/10) = 300
that is to say that there are a total of 300 students
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Select an ordered pair: (2, 7)
Select another ordered pair: (6, 19)
slope = (difference in y)/(difference in x)
slope = (19 - 7)(6 - 2)
slope = 12/4
slope = 3
