The function f ( x ) = x ^3 + 2x^2− 5 x − 6 has a root at 2. name all roots of this function.

a.-2, -1, -3

b.2, 1, 3

c.2, -1, -3

d.-2, 1, 3

sub x=1 into f(x),

remainder= 1^3+2(1)^2-5(1)-6= -8

since remainder≠0, x=1 is not a root of the function

sub x=-1,

remainder = (-1)^3+2(-1)^2-5(-1)-6= 0

by remainder theorem,

x=-1 is a root of f(x)

hence, the correct ans is c

35 is an outlier

step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
