Consider the polynomial function

divide p(x) by x - 6. rewrite p(x) in a completely factored form.

! my teacher is really bad at explaining things, we never went over how to do this, and i don't even get a text book to me understand.

The answer to your question is (x- 6)(x - 5)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial                x³ - 9x² + 8x + 60

Divide by                 x - 6

                               x²  - 3x  - 10

                 x  -  6     x³  - 9x²  +  8x  + 60

                             - x³ + 6x²

                               0    -3x²  +  8x

                                     +3x²  - 18x

                                       0     - 10x  + 60

                                               +10x   -60

                                                 0       0       Remainder

Result     (x² - 3x - 10)(x - 6)

Factor  x² -3x - 10 = (x - 5)(x + 2)

Final result = (x- 6)(x - 5)(x + 2)

step-by-step explanation:

i found the life tables for the year 2012. 

life table of males at age 30. probability of dying between ages x and x+1

total population:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001030

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001061

males:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001420

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001448

white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001005

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001037

white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001372

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001399

non hispanic white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001083

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001116

non hispanic white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001477

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001503

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
