Answer: No, x+3 is not a factor of 2x^2-2x-12
========================================================
Explanation:
Let p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
If we divide p(x) over (x-k), then the remainder is p(k). I'm using the remainder theorem. A special case of the remainder theorem is that if p(k) = 0, then x-k is a factor of p(x).
Compare x+3 = x-(-3) to x-k to find that k = -3.
Plug x = -3 into the function
p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
p(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - 2(-3) - 12
p(-3) = 12
We don't get 0 as a result so x+3 is not a factor of p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
----------------------------------------
Let's see what happens when we factor p(x)
2x^2 - 2x - 12
2(x^2 - x - 6)
2(x - 3)(x + 2)
The factors here are 2, x-3 and x+2
Answer: C. 6 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
2 * -5 * -7 = -10 * -7 = 70
70 + 4 = 74
3 * 4 = 12
74/12 = 6 1/6
Answer:
hello there,
the answer for this equation is:
The value of Start Fraction 6 Over x End Fraction + 2x2, when x = 3 is 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
:
The greatest common factor is 28.
The factors of 56 are: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56
The factors of 84 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84
Then the greatest common factor is 28.
