A. Yes, the remainder is -50.
B. No, but the remainder is 0.
C. Yes, the remainder is 0.
D. No, the remainder is -50.

Answer 1

when i plugged one into the equation i got 6..

Answer 2

-50

Answer 3

D

Answer 4

oh i see i thought it waqs positive 1 not negative thanks!

Answer 5

x+1=0
x=-1
f(x)=x^3-10x^2+27x-12
f(x)=(-1)^3-10(-1)^2+27(-1)-12
=-1-10-27-12=-50

Answer 6

The last one.

Answer 7

and its not a factor.
if you do the polinomyal roots you'll get:

(x-4) (x^2-6 x+3)

so there's no (x+1) to anyone xD

Answer 8

meda plz

Answer 9

it is not a factor and has a remainder -50
