y=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
The nature of the roots can be determined by the determinant of the equation. The determinant is:
b² - 4ac
If this is positive, there are two roots
If this is 0, there is only one root
If this is negative, there are complex roots
First you graph it using a graphing calculator, you look at the table of values to find out one point in which y= 0. The first one that comes up is when x=1.
If you don't have a graphing calculator you can use trial and error by inputing some numbers into x until you get y= 0.
Once you have an x value which makes y=0, you can start factorizing it.
you divide 6x3 +4x2 -6x - 4 into (x-1) which is when y =0
to get 6x2+10x+4
This can be used to write the polynomial as (x-1)(6x2 +10x+4)
you then factorize the second bracket, 6x2 +10x+4.
you can take the 2 outside to give you 2(3x2 +5x+2)
you can factorize this to become 2(3x+2)(x+1)
Now you just substitute your factorized second bracket into your unfactorized second bracket to give you 2(3x+2)(x+1)(x-1).
From this you can deduce that k= 1
