Question

How do i solve using the rational root theorem. 2x3-9x2-11x+8=0

Answer 1

2(3)-9(2)-11x+8=0
(2)(3)-(9)(2)-11x+8=0
6+-18+-11x+8=0
(-11x)+(6+-18+8)=0 Combine Like Terms.
-11x+-4=0
-11x-4=0
Add 4 to both sides.
-11x-4+4=0+4
-11x=4
Divide both sides by -11.
-11x/-11=4/-11
x=-4/11

Hope this helps!
