Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x⁴ + 4x³ - 30x² = 2x²*(x² + 2x - 15)
x² + 2x - 15
Sum = 2
Product = -15
Factors = 5 ; (-3)
x² + 2x - 15 = x² + 5x - 3x - 3 *5
= x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5)
= (x + 5)(x - 3)
2x⁴ + 4x³ - 30x² = (2x²) (x + 5)(x - 3)
get the equation in slope intercept form
2x-3y=9
subtract 2x from each side
-3y = -2x +9
divide by -3
y = 2/3 x -3
slope = 2/3
y intercept = -3
x intercept set y=0 and solve
0 = 2/3 x -3
add 3 to each side
3 = 2/3 x
multiply each side by 3/2
9/2 = x
the x intercept is 9/2 or 4 1/2
