Hi Larry
x^3 - 168 = [ 24(x-2)] / 2
x^3 - 168 = (24x - 48)/2
x^3 - 168 = 12x - 24
Subtract 12x - 24 to both sides
x^3 - 168 - (12x - 24) = 12xx - 24 - (12x - 24)
x^3 - 12x - 144 = 0
Now, factor the left sides
(x - 6)(x^2 + 6x + 24) = 0
Set factors equal to 0
x - 6 = 0 or x^2 + 6x + 24 = 0
x = 0 + 6 or x^2 + 6x + 24 - 0
x = 6
Answer : X = 6
Good luck !
The slope of this line is -1 because it goes down one and to the right one
3.124 * 10^-4
since your decimal is coming forward you need the exponent to be negative
Simplify:
37 - (-3)^2 + 30/(-3)x^2
= 37 + - 9 + - 10x^2
Combine like terms:
= 37 + - 9 + - 10x^2
= ( - 10x^2) + (37 + - 90
= - 10X^2 + 28
Answer: - 10x^2 + 28
To Factor:
37 - (- 3)^2 + 30/- 3x^2
- 10x^2 + 28
- 2(5x^2 - 14)
Answer: - 2(5x^2 - 14)
I simplify, and factor, because, you didn't really specify what you wanted help on with this equation. - Thanks -
Hope that helps!!!!
You would want to go by reverse order of operations. This is a one step equation. You subtract 2 on both sides, in which you will get: -14 = k.
