Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine if (<em>x</em> + 1) is a factor of the polynomial:

x^4 + 2x^3 + 2x^2 - 2x -3

According to the Factor Theorem, if a binomial in the form (<em>x</em> - <em>a</em>) is a factor of a polynomial P(x), then P(a) must equal zero.

Our binomial factor is (<em>x</em> + 1) or (<em>x</em> - (-1)). Hence, <em>a</em> = -1.

Let our polynomial be P(x). Find P(-1):

\displaystyle\begin{aligned}  P(-1) &= (-1)^4 + 2(-1)^3 +2(-1)^2 -2(-1) -3 \\&=0\end{aligned}

Therefore, since the resulting value is indeed zero, (<em>x</em> + 1) is indeed a factor of the given polynomial.

In conclusion: yes.

2. I am definitely sure that </span><span>Edgar wrote a statistical, because every neighbor can give a different answer. A statistical question is the question which you don't expect to get only one answer. Instead of that you will get a variety of different answers.

3. According to what I've mentioned before, the only statement which shows a characteristic of a statistical question is: </span><span>There can be variability in the answers to the question.

4. I am completely sure that this one is statistical question: </span>How many hours do you spend each week training for a sports league? Because it could be answered with variability.

5. The only statistical question in his survey is: <span>How many hours do you spend at the food court each month?. Because it gives him more different answers for his survey.</span>

Z divided by 3-2z + 4(z-8) when z = 18 <br><br> A. -122<br> B. 6<br> C. -66<br> D. 10
murzikaleks [220]

Everywhere you see z, replace the letter with 18.

z/[(3- 2z)] + 4(z - 8)

18/[(3 - 2(18))] + 4(18 - 8)

You finish.
