Question

what are the roots of the polynomial equation x3-7x=6x-12? Use a graphing calculator and a system of equations.

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

X3-7x=6x-12
x3-7x-6x+12=0
x3-13x+12=0
(x-1)(x2+x-12)=0
Calculate delta of the second bracket:
delta = 1+4*12=49
sqrt(delta)=sqrt(49)=7
x_1=(-1-7)/2=-4
x_2=(-1+7)/2=3

(x-1)(x+4)(x-3)=0

Answear:
Roots: x=1, x=-4, x=3.
