Question

P(x)=1/2(x-2)(x-3)(x+3) find the constant term

Answer 1

Explanation:

P(x) = 1/2 (x - 2) (x - 3) (x +3)

1/2 (x - 2) ( x^2 + 3x - 3x - 9)

1/2 (x - 2) ( x^2 - 9)

(1/2x - 1) (x^2 - 9)

1/2x^3 - 9/2x - x^2 + 9

The constant term in this function is 9

( A constant term is a term in an algebraic expression that has a value that is constant or cannot change, because it does not contain any modifiable variables. )

I hope this helps!
