Question

The function f is defined by a polynomial. Some values of x and f(x) are shown in the table above. (I'll post it below). Which of the following must be the factor of f(x)?

A) x - 2

B) x - 3

C) x - 4

D) x - 5

Answer 1

Here's the table
\(\begin{array}{|l|l|}\hline
\sf\Large ~~~~x~~\ &\sf\Large ~~~~~f(x)\\\hline
\sf\Large~~~~0~~\ &\sf\Large~~~~~~3\\\hline
\sf\Large~~~~2~~\ &\sf\Large~~~~~~1\\\hline
\sf\Large~~~~4~~\ &\sf\Large~~~~~~0\\\hline
\sf\Large~~~~5~~\ &\sf\Large~~~-2~\\\hline
\end{array}\)

Answer 2

I'm literal trash at polynomials but medal for master :D

Answer 3

It's fine :)

Answer 4

so meek milly lets figure out the function

Answer 5

oke

Answer 6

y-intercept = (0,3)

Answer 7

yes so the y intercept for your function will be 3

Answer 8

now lets find the slope so pick two points and put it into the slope formula
