Let's check which polynomial is divisible by ( x - 1 ) using hit , trial and error method .
A ( x ) = 3x³ + 2x² - x
The word " divisible " itself says that " it is a factor "
Using factor theorem ;
Let;
=> x - 1 = 0
=> x = 1
Substitute the value of x in p ( x )
p ( 1 ) =
3 ( 1 )³ + 2 ( 1 )² - 1
3 ( 1 ) + 2 ( 1 ) - 1
3 + 2 - 1
5 - 1
4
This implies ;
A ( x ) is not divisible by ( x - 1 )
Similarly,
B ( x ) = 5x³ - 4x² - x
B ( 1 ) =
5 ( 1 )³ - 4 ( 1 )² - 1
5 ( 1 ) - 4 ( 1 ) - 1
5 - 4 - 1
5 - 5
0
This implies ;
B ( x ) is divisible by ( x - 1 )
Similarly,
C ( x ) = 2x³ - 3x² + 2x - 1
C ( 1 ) =
2 ( 1 )³ - 3 ( 1 )² + 2 ( 1 ) - 1
2 ( 1 ) - 3 ( 1 ) + 2 - 1
2 - 3 + 2 - 1
4 - 4
0
This implies ;
C ( x ) is divisible by ( x - 1 )
Similarly,
D ( x ) = x³ + 2x² + 3x + 2
D ( 1 ) =
( 1 )³ + 2 ( 1 )² + 3 ( 1 ) + 2
1 + 2 + 3 + 2
8
This implies ;
D ( x ) is not divisible by ( x - 1 )
<h2>Therefore ; </h2>
<h3>B ( x ) & C ( x ) are divisible by ( x - 1 ) </h3>
Wait if he worked 1 hour this question still makes no since
Answer:sure
Step-by-step explanation:
11.p=-8, 17-8=9
12.y=11, 3*11=33+16=46
13.t=4, 4*4=16-14=2
14.x=9, -9x 9*8=82-9=72-9=62
15.z=4, 12*4=48-18=30
16.g=0, 4*0=0, 7+0=7
17.x=4, 9*4=36-24=-3
18.q=3, 18*3=48+2=50
19.c=2, 3*2=6-4.5=4.1
20.y=4, 9+4=13+4.8=17.4
