Use the Factor Theorem to show that (x - 3) is a factor of the polynomial P(x) = x^5-3x^4+5x^3-15x^2-6x+18

P(3) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor Theorem is a consequence of Remainder Theorem.

Remainder Theorem states that if polynomial f(x) is divided by a binomial (x - a) then the remainder is f(a).

Factor Theorem states that if f(a) = 0, then the binomial (x - a) is a factor of f(x).

We have the polynomial

To prove that x-3 is a factor of P, we calculate P(3):

Thus, x-3 is a factor of P(x)

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this gracious day. in order to compare the ratios easily, it is best that we simplify the question first. so, the cougars would have 6 wins for 5 losses, bobcats make 2 wins for 1 loss. bulldogs and tigers have a ratio where you can't simplify it. so, the team with the lowest rate would be the bobcats.

i hope that this ! : d

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
