Solve for x over the real numbers:
x^3 (x^2 - 4) = 0
Split into two equations:
x^3 = 0 or x^2 - 4 = 0
Take cube roots of both sides:
x = 0 or x^2 - 4 = 0
Add 4 to both sides:
x = 0 or x^2 = 4
Take the square root of both sides:
Answer: x = 0 or x = 2 or x = -2
Answer:
Isn't it 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
1 . 1
_ _ 3 = _
2 . 6
3/4 x 2/1 = 6/4
Simplify:
6/4 = 3/2
So, 3/2 or 1.5
So
y=ax^2+bx+c
(x,y)
sub the points and solve
(4.28,6.48)
6.48=a(4.28)^2+b(4.28)+c
(12.61,15.04)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)+c
well, for 3 variables, we need equations and therefor 3 points
maybe we are supposed to assume it starts at (0,0)
so then
0=a(0)^2+b(0)+c
0=c
so then
6.48=a(4.28)^2+b(4.28)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)
solve for a by subsitution
first equation, minut a(4.28)^2 from both sides
6.48-a(4.28)^2=b(4.28)
divide both sides by 4.28
(6.48/4.28)-4.28a=b
sub that for b in other equation
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+((6.48/4.28)-4.28a)(12.61)
expand
15.04 =a(12.61)^2+(81.7128/4.28)-53.9708a
minus (81.7128/4.28) both sides
15.04-(81.7128/4.28)=a(12.61)^2-53.9708a
15.04-(81.7128/4.28)=a((12.61)^2-53.9708)
(15.04-(81.7128/4.28))/(((12.61)^2-53.9708))=a
that's the exact value of a
to find b, subsitute to get
(6.48/4.28)-4.28((15.04-(81.7128/4.28))/(((12.61)^2-53.9708)))=b
if we aprox
a≈-0.038573167896199
b≈1.6791118501845
so then the equation is
y=-0.038573167896199x²+1.6791118501845x
I had that question yesterday
