Step-by-step explanation:

if x-4 is a factor of 2x^3 + x^2- 26x - 40

then f(4) = 0

f(x) = 2x^3 + x^2- 26x - 40

f(4) = 2(4)^3 + (4)^2 - 26(4) - 40

f(4)= 2(64) + 16 - 104 - 40

f(4) = 128 + 16 - 104 - 40

f(4) = 0

hence factorize completely is the photo

A directed line segment begins at F(-8, -2), ends at H(8, 6), and is divided in the ratio 8 to 2 by G. What are the coordinates

I am Lyosha [343]

Given:

A directed line segment begins at F(-8, -2), ends at H(8, 6), and is divided in the ratio 8 to 2 by G.

To find:

The coordinates of point G.

Solution:

Section formula: If a point divide a line segment with end points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ in m:n, then the coordinates of that point are

$Point=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)$

Point G divide the line segment FH in 8:2. Using section formula, we get

$G=\left(\dfrac{8(8)+2(-8)}{8+2},\dfrac{8(6)+2(-2)}{8+2}\right)$

$G=\left(\dfrac{64-16}{10},\dfrac{48-4}{10}\right)$

$G=\left(\dfrac{48}{10},\dfrac{44}{10}\right)$

$G=\left(4.8,4.4\right)$

Therefore, the coordinates of point G are (4.8, 4.4).
