If 2x+4 = (x²)²÷2 then what is x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]2 years ago

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+4 = (x²)²÷2

2x + 4 = x^4/2

x^4 = 4x + 8

x^4 - 4x - 8 = 0

We can try trial an error to solve this

Looks like x = 2 fits it:

2^4 - 4(2) - 8

= 16 -8 -8 = 0

so x = 2 is one solution.

I can't find any other solution among other integers.

To find the other solutions you can draw a graph manually or by using software.

There will be either 1 or 3 more real solutions.

I used software to draw the graph and found one other solution:

x = -1.296

Factor the expression 3x^(2)+10x+8
marin [14]

Hello,

If we want to factor the expression, we have to solve

3x² + 10x + 8 = 0

a = 3 ; b = 10 ; c = 8

∆ = b² - 4ac = 10² - 4 × 3 × 8 = 4 > 0

x1 = (-b - √∆)/2a = (-10 - 2)/6 = -12/6 = -2

x2 = (-b + √∆)/2a = (-10 + 2)/6 = -8/6 = -4/3

Factor :

a (x - x1)(x - x2)

= 3(x + 2)(x + 4/3)

= (x + 2)(3x + 4)
