Use the remainder theorem to determine whether x - 2 is a factor of
f(x) = x3 + 3x2 - x - 18

a)
yes, x - 2 is a factor of f(x) because f(2) = 0

b)
no, x - 2 is not a factor of f(x) because f(2) = 0

c)
yes, x - 2 is a factor of f(x) because f(-2) = -12

d)
no, x - 2 is not a factor of f(x) because f(-2) = -12

Which of the following equations are equivalent to -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m? -15m = -4m -7m - 8 = m - 4 -3m - 8 = 4 - m m - 4 = -7m - 8 -8 - 7m = -4 + m -8 - 3m = 4 - m
