15. Select the graph which correctly displays the function f(x) = |x + 2|– 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(0)=2-3=-1 so the point (0,-1) must be on the graph

f(-5)=|-5+2|-3=3-3=0 so the point (-5,0) must be on the graph

Then, the correct answer is the second graph

the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996

step-by-step explanation:

in synthetic division, use -6 as the divisor and use the coefficients {4, -3, 5, 6}:

-6     )   4     -3     5     6

                -24   162 -1002

          4   -27   167   -996

thus, the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996.

note:   your "4x°-3x+5x+6" is ambiguous / incomplete.   i had to assume that you meant '4x^3 - 3x^2 + 5x + 6."
