D) because “y is” means “y equals” leaving only 2 choices, and it said “6 less than the independent variable, 6. (Y=6-x)
Answer:
-8 -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it is the most reasonable
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A, B are wrong since 8,795 is a constant, it doesn’t change;
D is wrong since it is the starting cost, not total cost
x^2 - 4
------------------------------
x + 7 | x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x - 28
x^3 + 7x^2
------------------
0 - 4x - 28
-4x - 28
-------------
0
Now we know that
x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x - 28 = (x^2 - 4)(x + 7)
x^2 - 4 can be factored since it is the difference of two squares.
x^2 - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)
The complete factoring is:
x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x - 28 = (x +2)(x - 2)(x + 7)
