Answer: 
Not a factor because there is a remainder.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use synthetic division to solve this..
-1 ║ 2 | 4 | -2 | -8
║ | -2| -2 | 4
║ 2 | 2| -4 | -4

PS: if anyone knows a better way to do a synthetic division chart please let me know.
Its the connection between those numbers
50
64=1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
80
the total number of feet they jog is 950 feet.
The solution of a system of equations is the point at which the two lines intersect. Since y is already isolated, we can set the equations equal to each other by doing:
4x=4x+1
Subtract 4x from both sides
0=1
Since 0 cannot equal 1 in any case, the lines never intersect. There is no solution to the problem.
