Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given function as shown below,
Formula used:
Synthetic division is a nice shortcut for long division of polynomials by divisors of the form x-k-
Calculation:
Let us use the synthetic division to verify the result of part (b).
Synthetic division is a nice shortcut for long division of polynomials by divisors of the form x-k-
The pattern for synthetic division of a cubic polynomial is summarized below
First we will have to set up an array,
Divisor
Quotient
Let us again perform the test for another factor,
Divisor
Quotient
Hence, x = 3 and x = 4are factors of the given polynomial function.
Now, we can write the function as,
After factorizing the quotient,
Hence, after factorizing polynomial completely, the function will become
Conclusion:
The function will become

The growth of bacteria in food products makes it necessary to time-date some products (such as milk) so that they will be sold and consumed before the bacteria count is too high. Suppose for a certain product that the number of bacteria present is given by f(t)=5000.1 Under certain storage conditions, where t is time in days after packing of the product and the value of f(t) is in millions. The solution to word problems should always be given in a complete sentence, with appropriate units, in the context of the problem. (a) If the product cannot be safely eaten after the bacteria count reaches 3000 million, how long will this take?
