Is x + 3 a factor of the polynomial 2x^3 + 5x - 3?

Answer: n = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given (x + h) is a factor of a polynomial f(x) then f(- h) = 0

Here

f(x) = x³ + 2x² - 5x + n and (x + 3) is a factor then f(- 3) = 0 , that is

f(- 3) = (- 3)³ + 2(- 3)² - 5(- 3) + n = 0 , so

- 27 + 2(9) + 15 + n = 0

- 27 + 18 + 15 + n = 0

6 + n = 0 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

n = - 6

The speed limit is 25 miles per hour, but it seems that many of the cars are going faster. The city places 2 counter strips 360
klio [65]
You figure out how long it would take a car traveling at 25 mph
to cover 360 ft.  Any driver who does it in less time is speeding.

           (25 mi/hr) · (5,280 ft/mile) · (1 hr / 3,600 sec)

       =    (25 · 5280 / 3600)  ft/sec  =  (36 and 2/3) feet per second.

To cover 360 ft at 25 mph, it would take

                360 ft / (36 and 2/3 ft/sec)  =   9.82 seconds .

Anybody who covers the 360 feet in less than 9.82 seconds
is moving faster than 25 mph.
_________________________________

If you're interested, here's how to do it in the other direction:

Let's say a car covers the 360 feet in ' S ' seconds.
What's the speed of the car ?

           (360 ft / S sec) · (1 mile / 5280 feet) · (3600 sec/hour)

       =    (360 · 3600) / (S · 5280)  mile/hour

       =        245.5 / S    miles per hour .

The teacher timed one car crossing both strips in 7.0 seconds.
How fast was that car traveling ?

                   245.5 / 7.0  =  35.1 miles per hour


Another teacher timed another car that took 9.82 seconds to cross
both strips.  How fast was this car traveling ?

                        245.5 / 9.82  =  25 miles per hour
