We won't be able to answer this accurately without knowing the polynomials.
Yes, if there is no remainder after division, the divisor is a factor.
This polynomial doesn't factor. The only thing you can do is take out parts of some terms, e.g. 2(2x3 + 10x2 + x) - 3.
(x + 11y)(x - 12y)
Yes, f(x) = 2 is a polynomial of degree 0 (because there are no x terms).
Take out the common factor, 3: 3x + 6 = 3(x + 2).
To determine the relationship between ( (x - 2) ) and the polynomial ( 2x^3 + x^2 - 3 ), we can perform polynomial division. If ( (x - 2) ) divides the polynomial evenly, then ( (x - 2) ) is a factor of the polynomial. Alternatively, we can evaluate the polynomial at ( x = 2 ); if the result is zero, it confirms that ( (x - 2) ) is a factor. In this case, substituting ( x = 2 ) gives ( 2(2)^3 + (2)^2 - 3 = 16 + 4 - 3 = 17 ), indicating that ( (x - 2) ) is not a factor of the polynomial.
(x-2)(x-3)
(x-2)(x+2)
To factor a polynomial expression, you identify common factors among the terms and express the polynomial as a product of simpler polynomials. For example, consider the polynomial ( x^2 - 5x + 6 ); it factors into ( (x - 2)(x - 3) ). Each factor is written in descending order, starting with the highest degree term. The specific steps to factor will depend on the polynomial you are working with.
x^2 + 5x - 24 = (x - 3)(x + 8)
To factor the polynomial (2x^2 + 20x + 50), first, we can factor out the greatest common factor, which is 2. This gives us (2(x^2 + 10x + 25)). The quadratic (x^2 + 10x + 25) can be factored further as ((x + 5)^2). Thus, the complete factorization of the polynomial is (2(x + 5)^2).
The expression (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial (2x^2 - 7x - 15) if substituting (x = 5) yields a result of zero for the polynomial. To determine this, we can use polynomial long division or synthetic division. If (2x^2 - 7x - 15) can be divided by (x - 5) without a remainder, then (x - 5) is indeed a factor of the polynomial. Otherwise, it is not a factor.
Yes, that's correct. According to the Factor Theorem, if a polynomial ( P(x) ) is divided by ( (x - a) ) and the remainder is zero, then ( (x - a) ) is indeed a factor of the polynomial. This means that ( P(a) = 0 ), indicating that ( a ) is a root of the polynomial. Thus, the polynomial can be expressed as ( P(x) = (x - a)Q(x) ) for some polynomial ( Q(x) ).
The coefficient of a factor in a polynomial is a numerical value that multiplies that factor within the expression. For example, in the polynomial (3x^2 + 5x + 2), the coefficient of the factor (x^2) is 3, while the coefficient of (x) is 5. Coefficients can represent various quantities, such as weights or scaling factors, depending on the context in which the polynomial is used.
Suppose p(x) is a polynomial in x. Then p(a) = 0 if and only if (x-a) is a factor of p(x).
(x+4)(x-2)
2(x + 4)(x - 10)
