Step-by-step explanation:

Each root r gives rise to a binomial factor (x-r). Each complex root also has a conjugate root, so roots ±ri give rise to a binomial factor (x^2 +r^2).

1. p(x) = (x -(-6))(x -3)(x -5)

  p(x) = (x+6)(x-3)(x-5)

__

2. p(x) = (x -2)(x -(-2))(x^2 +6^2)

  p(x) = (x -2)(x +2)(x^2 +36)

__

If you want standard form, you can start with factored form, then multiply it out.

3. p(x) = (x -1)(x +1)(x -7) = (x^2 -1)(x -7) = (x^2 -1)x +(x^2 -1)(-7)

  p(x) = x^3 -7x^2 -x +7

__

4. p(x) = (x -3)(x +3)(x^2 +2^2) = (x^2 -9)(x^2 +4)

  p(x) = x^4 -5x^2 -36

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.
