will fan & medal?!

Answer 1

A mysterious box is delivered to the dinner party you are attending. The label on the box says that the volume of a box is the function f(x) = x3 + 3x2 – 10x – 24. To open the box, you need to identify the correct factors of f(x). Party-goers offer up solutions, and it is your job to find the right ones.

Their suggestions are:

(x – 1)
(x + 2)
(x – 3)
(x + 4)
(x + 6)
(x – 12)
List the correct factors. Then justify your selections with complete sentences

?1

Answer 4

f(-2)=(-2)^3+3(-2)^2-10(-2)-24=-8+12+20-24=-32+32=0
x=-2
or x+2 is a factor.

\[x^2+x-12=x^2+4x-3x-12=x(x+4)-3(x+4)=(x+4)(x-3)\]

Answer 5

is only + - 2 a factor?

Answer 6

?!

Answer 7

f(x)=(x+2)(x+4)(x-3)

Answer 8

thank you.
