Three numbers x, y, and z are in the ratio 2: 7: 8. if 12 is subtracted from y, then three numbers form a geometric sequence (in the order x, y–12, z). find x, y, and z. there are 2 sets.

Daryl factors the polynomial p(x)=x3+x2−26x+24 to rewrite it as p(x)=(x+6)(x−4)(x−1). which equations must be true? there may be more than one correct answer. select all correct answers. p(1)=0 p(−4)=0 p(−1)=0 p(6)=0 p(4)=0 p(−6)=0
