Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 is a perfect cube, 8 is a perfect cube, so we use difference of cubes.
Cube root of x^3 is x.
Cube root of 8 is 2
So
a=x
b= 2.
Set these equations equal to zero
If we do the discriminant, we get a negative answer so we would have two imaginary solutions,
Thus the only real root is 2.
If you want imaginary solutions, apply the quadratic formula.
and
Answer:
The linear speed is
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the circumference of the circle
The circumference is equal to
we have
substitute
step 2
Find the linear speed in feet per minute
we know that
The wheel is rotating at 10 revolutions per minute
Convert revolutions to feet
Remember that
One revolution is equal to the circumference of the circle
so
10 revolutions is equal to
therefore
The linear speed is
