Answer:

The binomial is a factor

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to show that x+3 is a factor of the polynomial, then;

f(a) = 0

Get a by equating x+3 to zero

x+3 = 0

x = -3

Get f(-3)

f(-3) = (-3)^4 + 8(-3)^3 + 11(-3)^2 -11(-3) + 3

f(-3) = 81 - 216 + 99 + 33 + 3

f(-3) = 216-216

f(-3) = 0

Since the remainder of the polynomial when divided by x+3 is zero, this shows that x+3 is a factor of the given polynomial

David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9. Frances gets ?80 more than David. Explain how you know Egil gets ?80.

Natalija [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9.

Let 2x, 7x and 9x be the amounts of money that David, Agil and Frances get respectively.

We are told that Frances gets $80 more than David. So we can write this information in an equation as:

$9x=2x+80$

Now let us solve for x.

$9x-2x=80$

$7x=80$

$x=\frac{80}{7}$

Now let us substitute $x=\frac{80}{7}$ in 7x (amount of money that Egil gets).

$\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=7\cdot \frac{80}{7}$

Upon cancelling out 7 from numerator and denominator we will get,

$\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=80$

Therefore, Egil will get $80.
