This question is ultimately asking you to factor 3x² - 9x - 30, which you can do by finding factors of 30 that, when one is multiplied by 3 due to the 3x², makes -9. These factors are 5 and 6, with 5 being multiplied by 3 so you get 15 and 6. Because you have -9, the 5 must be negative, which means the 6 is positive, so you get your final answer as:
(3x + 6)(x - 5)
I hope this helps!

9(t+1)\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}-7y=14t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}-\dfrac7{9(t+1)}y=\dfrac{14t}{9(t+1)}

Look for an integrating factor \mu(t):

\ln\mu=\displaystyle-\frac79\int\frac{\mathrm dt}{t+1}=-\frac79\ln(t+1)\implies\mu=(t+1)^{-7/9}

Multiply both sides by \mu:

(t+1)^{-7/9}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}-\dfrac79(t+1)^{-16/9}y=\dfrac{14}9t(t+1)^{-16/9}

Condense the left side as the derivative of a product:

\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[(t+1)^{-7/9}y\right]=\dfrac{14}9t(t+1)^{-16/9}

Integrate both sides:

(t+1)^{-7/9}y=\displaystyle\frac{14}9\int t(t+1)^{-16/9}\,\mathrm dt

For the integral on the right, substitute

u=t+1\implies t=u-1\implies\mathrm dt=\mathrm du

\displaystyle\int t(t+1)^{-16/9}\,\mathrm dt=\int(u-1)u^{-16/9}\,\mathrm du

\displaystyle=\int\left(u^{-7/9}-u^{-16/9}\right)\,\mathrm du=\frac92u^{2/9}+\frac97u^{-7/9}+C

\implies(t+1)^{-7/9}y=\dfrac{14}9\left(\dfrac92(t+1)^{2/9}+\dfrac97(t+1)^{-7/9}+C\right)

\implies(t+1)^{-7/9}y=7(t+1)^{2/9}+2(t+1)^{-7/9}+C

\implies y=7(t+1)+2+C(t+1)^{7/9}=7t+9+C(t+1)^{7/9}

Given that y(0)=12, we get

12=9+C\implies C=3

\implies\boxed{y(t)=7t+9+3(t+1)^{7/9}}

Find x when : 3x^3 - 2x +1 = 0
notsponge [240]
Answer:  x = "-1 " ;  <u>and</u>:  "(1 ± √3) / 2" .
____________________________________________
Explanation:
____________________________________________
Given:  3x³ −  2x  + 1 = 0 ;  Find "x" ; 

Factor:  "3x³ −  2x + 1"  ;

3x³ − 2x + 1 = (3x² <span>− 3x + 1)(x + 1) ;

Now, set the equation equal to "0" (zero);

</span> (3x² − 3x + 1)(x + 1) = 0 ;

x = 0  ; when:
__________________________________
(x + 1) = 0 ;  and/or: when:

(3x² − 3x + 1) = 0 ;
__________________________________

Start with "x + 1 = 0" ;

Subtract "1" from each side of the equation ; to isolate "x" on one side of the <span>equation ; and</span> to solve for "x" ; 

              x + 1 − 1 = 0 − 1 ; 

                x = -1 ;

_______________________________
Now, try:  

3x² − 3x + 1 = 0 ;

Since:  "3x² − 3x + 1 " cannot be factored; and since:

  "3x² − 3x + 1 = 0" ; is written in the "quadratic equation format"; that is:

  "ax² + bx + c = 0 ;  a ≠ 0;  We can use the "quadratic equation formula" to solve for "x" ;  

in which "a = 3" ;   
              "b = -3" ;
              "c = 1" ;
     
The quadratic equation formula is:
__________________________________

x = [-b ± √(b²−4ac] / 2a ;

   = ?  (Let us plug in our known values for "a, b, & c"l 

x = { [-(-3] ± [√[(-3²) − (4*3*1)] } / {2* 3} ;

x = [3 ± √(9 − 12)] / 6 

x = [3 ± √(-3 )] / 6 ; 

x = (1 ± √3) / 2 .
<span>__________________________________________________
So, the answers are:  x = " -1 " ;  and:  "</span>(1 ± √3) / 2 " .
