The polynomial p(w) = 3w^3 - 20w^2 + 37w - 20 has a known factor of (w-4). Rewrite p(w) as a product of linear factors.

(w - 4)(w - 1)(3w - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Synthetic division to find the quotient on dividing p(w) by (w - 4)

4 | 3   - 20   37   - 20

            12   - 32    20

    3     - 8     5        0 ← remainder = 0

quotient = 3w² - 8w + 5 = (3w - 5)(w - 1)

p(w) = (w - 4)(w - 1)(3w - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 5 = -1/4(x + 1)

y - 20/4 = -1/4x - 1/4

y = -1/4x + 19/4
