find the constant k so that : - x 2 - ( k + 11 ) x - 8 = - ( x - 2 ) ( x - 4 )
"- x 2 - ( k + 11 ) x - 8 = - ( x - 2 ) ( x - 4 ) : given - x 2 - ( k + 11 ) x - 8 = - x 2 + 6 x - 8 - ( k + 11 ) = 6 : two polynomials are equal if their corresponding coefficients are equal . k = - 17 : solve the above for k correct answer c"
add(11, add(4, 2))
