Answer:
P(x) =
- 7x² + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given zeros x = 2, x = - 2, x =
, x = - 
Then the factors are (x - 2), (x + 2), (x -
), (x +
)
and the polynomial is the product of the factors, that is
P(x) = (x - 2)(x + 2)(x -
)(x +
) ← expand in pairs using FOIL
= (x² - 4)(x² - 3) ← distribute
=
- 3x² - 4x² + 12 ← collect like terms
=
- 7x² + 12
B. 25/20 using gcf simplified is 5/4
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
add all of the totals including the missing pair
we now have 24
7+1 is 8
24 minus 8 is 16
24 can be split into 2 groups of 8
and we have 2/3 left. which makes our solution 1/3
