Factor the polynomial completely over the set of complex numbers.

a(x)=2x^4 - 3x^3 - 24x^2 + 13x + 12

explain!

If you evaluate your polynomial at x= - 3, the polynomial = 0. So, that means ( x + 3 ) is a factor. Either using long division, or synthetic division, you'll find out that 2x^3 - 9x^2 + 3x + 4 remains. Then if you try x = 4 on that remaining polynomial, it will = 0. Use long division or synthetic division to find out that 2x^2 - x - 1 is left over. That trinomial factors into ( 2x + 1 ) ( x - 1 ).

factored form is ( x+3 )( x - 4 )( 2x + 1 )( x - 1 )

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
