Write P(x) = x3 + x2 − 17x + 15 as a product of two factors, using x − 3 as one factor.

(x-1)(x-3)(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the rational root theorem

Constant term = 15, Coefficient of leading term = 1

Factors of 15: 1, 3 , 5, 15

Factors of 1: 1

Therefore, (x-1) is a factor

Cubic equations must have 3 factors to get to the third degree, therefore (x-1)(x-3)(x+5)

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.

i think the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

not 100% sure though.
