Using equations to solve the word problem, Katherine's age is 8 years

<h3>Word Problem</h3>

Word problem are often mathematical problem that are represented in words and sometimes can be solved using an equation.

To solve this problem, we have to represent the problem using mathematical equations;

Let;

Katherine's age = x²

Alexandra = 5(x + 1)

Sum of their age = 109

5(x + 1) + x² = 109

5x + 5 + x² = 109

x² + 5x - 104 = 0

Solving for the equation; x = 8

Katherine's age is 8

No, he needs to do 5(to the power of 2) plus 3(to the power of 2)
this should give him 25 plus 9 = 34

Graph the function f(x) = x3 – 5x2 + 6x using the graphing calculator. What are the solutions to the related equation? Check all
Juli2301 [7.4K]

the solutions to the related equation are 0,2,3 .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , function  f(x) = x3 – 5x2 + 6x . Graph of this function is given below  . We need to find What are the solutions to the related equation . Let's find out:

Solution of graph means the  value of x at which the value of f(x) or function is zero . We can determine this by seeing the graph as at what value of x does the graph intersect or cut x-axis !

At x = 0 .

From the graph , at x=0 we have f(x) = 0 i.e.

⇒ f(x) = x^3- 5x^2 + 6x

⇒ f(0) = 0^3- 5(0)^2 + 6(0)

⇒ f(0) =0

At x = 2 .

From the graph , at x=2 we have f(x) = 0 i.e.

⇒ f(x) = x^3- 5x^2 + 6x

⇒ f(0) = 2^3- 5(2)^2 + 6(2)

⇒ f(0) =0

At x=3 .

From the graph , at x=3 we have f(x) = 0 i.e.

⇒ f(x) = x^3- 5x^2 + 6x

⇒ f(0) = 3^3- 5(3)^2 + 6(3)

⇒ f(0) =0

Therefore , the solutions to the related equation are 0,2,3 .
