Let the function P be defined by P(x) = 23 + 722 – 26x - 72 where (x +9) is a factor. To rewrite the function as the product of two factors, long division was used but

an error was made:

22 + 163 +118

& +9) 23 + 722 – 260 – 72

-23 + 9x2

16:22 – 263

-16.x2 + 1443

118x - 72

-118.2 + 1062

990

How can we tell by looking at the remainder that an error was made somewhere?

step-by-step explanation:

well kind of. you get friend requests. and you can accept them or not so yes.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
