Answer:
x = 8 is the answer :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope(m) = -2/5
slope is passing through the points: (x,1) and (3,3)
-2(3 - x) = 2 × 5
-6 + 2x = 10
2x = 10 + 6
2x = 16
x = 8
Hopefully, this answer helped :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4; g(x)=5x³ -7x + 4
Step 1. Calculate the difference between the functions
(a) Write the two functions, one above the other, in decreasing order of exponents.
ƒ(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4
g(x) = 5x³ - 7x + 4
(b) Create a subtraction problem using the two functions
ƒ(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4
-g(x) = <u>-(5x³ - 7x + 4) </u>
ƒ(x) -g(x)=
(c). Subtract terms with the same exponent of x
ƒ(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4
-g(x) = <u>-(5x³ - 7x + 4) </u>
ƒ(x) -g(x) = 4x³ + 2x² + 2x
Step 2. Factor the expression
y = 4x³ + 2x² + 2x
Factor 2x from each term
y = 2x(2x² + x + 1)
This is a polynomial of degree 2, and remember that complex roots always come in pairs; therefore, in a second degree polynomial you can only have 0 real roots and 2 complex roots, or 2 real roots and 0 complex roots. There is no way you can have 1 real root and 1 complex root because, as stated before, complex (non-real) roots always come in pairs; so the only way of having 1 real root is dumping the polynomial of degree 2 (
) by changing the 14 to 0. That way we'll left with 
which only has one real root:
