Year New flowers
1 1200
2 300
3 75
There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park started tracking them. Since then, there have been one fourth as many new flowers each year
Initially there are 1200 flowers and start decreasing by 
So first term is 1200 and common ratio is .
Its a geometric sequence so summation becomes
i =1∑ ∞ 1200(
Now we find the sum
We use sum formula
Where a is the first term , a= 1200
r is the common ratio , r= 1/4
Sum = 1600 wildflowers
Answer:
whats the question?
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't get the question so what is the question?
(x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15 as there is no remaider.
<h3>What is a factor of a polynomial?</h3>
We know that if x = a is one of the roots of a given polynomial x - a = 0 is a factor of the given polynomial.
To confirm if x - a = 0 is a factor of a polynomial we replace f(x) with f(a) and if the remainder is zero then it is confirmed that x - a = 0 is a factor.
Given a polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.
If (x - 5) is it's factor then f(5) = 0.
∴ f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.
f(5) = 5³ - 5² - 17(5) - 15.
f(5) = 125 - 25 - 85 - 15.
f(5) = 0.
So, the remainder is zero hence (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

Answer:
x > 7
(I think this is Right but not sure yet )
Use the remainder theorem: we can decompose the given polynomial in terms of quotient and remainder polynomials 
and 
, respectively, such that
Then letting x = -3 makes the quotient term vanish, and we're left with a remainder of
