Answer:
The answer is (-4/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x − 4) = 12x
Multiply (x – 4) by 3 we get,
3(x – 4) = 12x
3x – 12 = 12x
3x – 12x – 12 + 12 = 12x – 12x + 12
-9x = 12
-9x/(-9) = -12/9
x = -4/3
Thus, The value of x is -4/3

The number of positive roots is the number of changes of signs there are, then decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0
negative roots, sub every x with -x and reevaluate, count change of signs
decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0
y=+2x⁵-x⁴-2x³+4x²+x-2
+,-,-,+,+,-
1 2 3
3 or 1 positive roots
replace x with -x ( baically flip all signs of odd powerd numbers)
y=-2x⁵-x⁴+2x³+4x²-x-2
-,-,+,+,-,-
1 2
2 or 0 negative roots
3 or 1 positive roots
2 or 0 negative roots
2nd option is answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope m = 5/6
The points (-2,1)
So; y1 = 1 and x1 = -2
The equation is y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 5/6(x + 2)
Multiply each term by 6
6y - 6 = 5(x + 2)
6y - 6 = 5x + 10
6y = 5x + 10 + 6
6y = 5x + 16
- 5x + 6y = 16
Multiplying by minus
5x - 6y = -16
