Use synthetic division to find p(3) for p(x) = x4 – 6x3 – 4x2 – 6x – 2. . a. 3. b. –137. c. 299. d. –47

B is correct. P(3)=-137

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an polynomial P(x)

We need to find P(3).

Using Synthetic Division

First we write the coefficient of polynomial and then divide by 3.

  3   |   1      -6       -4        -6        -2  |

                    3      -9       -39     -135

           1       -3      -13      -45     -137

Last number of division would be remainder when we divide by 3

If we put x=3 into P(x)

P(3)=-137

Thus, B is correct. P(3)=-137

answer: r there any options?

step-by-step explanation:

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
