We have to solve this equation:

x^3-6x^2+6x=0

Third degree polynomials like this one are not easily solved, but this one has a root at x = 0. The let us factorize this polynomial as x times a second degree polynomial:

\begin{gathered} x^3-6x^2+6x=0 \\ x(x^2-6x+6)=0 \end{gathered}

Now we can find the roots of the quadratic polynomial as:

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt[]{(-6)^2-4\cdot1\cdot6}}{2\cdot1} \\ x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt[]{36-24}}{2} \\ x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt[]{12}}{2} \\ x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt[]{4\cdot3}}{2} \\ x=\frac{6\pm2\sqrt[]{3}}{2} \\ x=3\pm\sqrt[]{3} \\ x_1=3-\sqrt[]{3} \\ x_2=3+\sqrt[]{3} \end{gathered}

Then, the solutions to the equation are:

x = 0

x = 3 - √3

x = 3 + √3

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

30.14

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The formula for cirumference is 2(pi)r
  • If the diameter equals 9.6 then the radius is 4.8
  • 4.8 times 2 equals 9.6
  • 9.6 times 3.14(pi) equals 30.144 which could be rounded to 30.14

Margarita [4]
Hello : 
<span>
 y=5x+8
y= -4x-1 
5x+8 = -4x-1
9x =-9
x = -1 
y = 5(-1)+8 = 3 
</span><span>ordered pair is the solution to the system : ( -1 , 3)</span>

Why is it possible to have two different rational functions with the same asymptotes?
jolli1 [7]

Answer: Down below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal asymptote for a function is a horizontal line that the graph of the function approaches as x approaches ∞ (infinity) or -∞ (minus infinity). ... There are literally only two limits to look at, so that means there can only be at most two horizontal asymptotes for a given function
