Which of the following binomials below is a factor of this trinomial? x^2+6x+8 a. x-8 b. x+4 c. x^2+8 d. x+8

To get the answer, you'd factor the equation.

List factors that multiply for 8.
1 x 8
2 x 4

Out of these, which can add to 6?
2 x 4


So,

and

and adds for 6,

simply put it together.

Then, you get:


Your answer would be (x+4).

Hope this helps!

Iwould like to think so. what’s the question you need with?

Answer

1 number

explanation

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

 

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.
