has
p(x) = 2x3 – 3x2-mx-6
1. the polynomial function has x-2
as one of its factors. what is the value of m?

The value of m = - 1.

Explanation:

An expression which contains two or more algebraic terms is called the polynomial. It is made up of two terms namely Poly and Nominal meaning many terms.

P(x) = 2x^3 - 3x^2 - mx - 6

x - 2 is one of the factor of the polynomial.

So x - 2 = 0

    x = 2

Substituting the value of x,

P(2) = 2(2)^3 - 3(2)^2 - m(2) - 6

       2(8) - 3(4) - m(2) - 6 = 0

       16 - 12 - 2m - 6 = 0

        - 2 - 2m = 0

           - 2m = 2

               m = - 1

answer: i'm not sure which is which for i get confused on it all the time but i can tell you that the answer lies with the convex and concave devices. i hope this you. have a good day and best of luck to you!
