Since the early 1990s, geneticists have produced crops that yield fruits and vegetables commonly found in u.s. supermarkets.

Since the early 1990s, geneticists have produced "genetically modified" crops that yield fruits and vegetables commonly found in U.S. supermarkets. Genetically modified plants (and also applicable to animals) in agriculture are those plants whose DNA are being modified using genetic engineering techniques.

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x4+2x2-6x+1)/(x+1)

Checking for a perfect cube :

3.1    3x4 + 2x2 - 6x + 1  is not a perfect cube

Trying to factor by pulling out :

3.2      Factoring:  3x4 + 2x2 - 6x + 1  

Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :

Group 1:  -6x + 1  

Group 2:  3x4 + 2x2  

Pull out from each group separately :

Group 1:   (-6x + 1) • (1) = (6x - 1) • (-1)

Group 2:   (3x2 + 2) • (x2)

Bad news !! Factoring by pulling out fails :

The groups have no common factor and can not be added up to form a multiplication.

3.3    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = 3x4 + 2x2 - 6x + 1

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  x  for which   F(x)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  3  and the Trailing Constant is  1.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1,3

of the Trailing Constant :  1

Let us test

 P    Q    P/Q    F(P/Q)    Divisor

     -1       1        -1.00        12.00      

     -1       3        -0.33        3.26      

     1       1        1.00        0.00      x - 1  

     1       3        0.33        -0.74      

The Factor Theorem states that if P/Q is root of a polynomial then this polynomial can be divided by q*x-p Note that q and p originate from P/Q reduced to its lowest terms

In our case this means that

  3x4 + 2x2 - 6x + 1  

can be divided with  x - 1
