zzz [600]1 year ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 is a perfect cube, 8 is a perfect cube, so we use difference of cubes.

{a}^{3}  -  {b}^{3}  = (a - b)( {a}^{2}  + ab +  {b}^{2} )

Cube root of x^3 is x.

Cube root of 8 is 2

So

a=x

b= 2.

(x - 2)( {x}^{2}  - 2x + 4)

Set these equations equal to zero

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

{x}^{2}  - 2x + 4 = 0

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.

1 + i  \sqrt{ 3 }

and

1 - i \sqrt{3}

viva [34]

Answer:

r = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

5 = (3 - r)/(-8 - (-4))

5 = (3 - r)/(-8 + 4)

3 - r = 5 × -4

3 - r = -20

-r = -23

r = 23

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

It is reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 468 (amount of animals already there) and add how ever many more coming (192) then you'll get 680. If you add 100 more that will only be 780 animals.
