devon wanted to know if x-3 is a factor of f(x)=x^3+x^2-10x+8. she applied the factor theorem and concluded that x-3 is not a factor of f(x), as shown in the following work.
f(-3)^3+(-3)^2-10(-3)+8=20
f(-3)=20, so the remainder is 20.
the remainder is 20, so x-3 is not a factor of f(x).
did devon make a mistake? if so, what was her mistake?
a. yes, devon evaluated f(-3) incorrectly.
b. no, devon did not make any mistakes.
c. yes, devon should have evaluated f(3)

Use the frequency distribution, which shows the number of american voters (in millions) according to age, to find the probability that a voter chosen at random is in the 18 to 20 years old age range. ages frequency 18 to 20 5.9 21 to 24 7.7 25 to 34 20.4 35 to 44 25.1 45 to 64 54.4 65 and over 27.7 the probability that a voter chosen at random is in the 18 to 20 years old age range is nothing. (round to three decimal places as needed.)
