The equation of a line is −2x 5y=−20−2x 5y=−20. what is the x-intercept of the line? enter your answer in the box.

The criteria to find out the x-intercept of the line is we find out the result when
y = 0

- 2x + 5y = -20
- 2x + 0 = -20

x = -20 / -2
x = 10

hope this helps

Instructions: The polygons in each pair are similar. Find the<br> missing side length.

loris [4]

Answer:

missing side length is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

similar means that all correlating pairs of sides have the same ratio (old side length) / (new side length).

so, when we know the ratio of one pair, we can apply it to any other side to calculate the correlating side.

we see, when we go from small to large, that we have the ratio 32/40 = 4/5.

so, multiplying the larger side by this, we get the shorter side.

15 × 4/5 = 3 × 4 = 12

the proportion part in your picture is a bit confusing :

yes,

x/15 = 32/40 = 32/40

I don't know, why this last expression was repeated.

x/15 = 32/40

x = 15×32/40 = 15×4/5 = 3×4 = 12

as you see we get of course the same result doing it that way.

2x^3-x^2-3x=210<br> the answer is 5 but I want to know why.

Answer:

$x=5,\frac{-9+\sqrt{255}i }{4} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{255}i }{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Move all terms to one side.

$2x^{3} -x^{2} -3x-210=0$

2) Factor $2{x}^{3}-{x}^{2}-3x-210$ using Polynomial Division.

1 - Factor the following.

$2x^{3} -x^{2} -3x-210$

2 - First, find all factors of the constant term 210.

$1,2,3,4,5,6,7,10,14,15,21,30,35,42,70,105,210$

3) Try each factor above using the Remainder Theorem.

Substitute 1 into x. Since the result is not 0, x-1 is not a factor..

$2*1^{3} -1^{2} -3*1-210=-212$

Substitute -1 into x. Since the result is not 0, x+1 is not a factor..

$2(-1)^{3} -(-1)^{2} -3*-1-210=-210$

Substitute 2 into x. Since the result is not 0, x-2 is not a factor..

$2*2^{3} -2^{2} -3*2-210=-204$

Substitute -2 into x. Since the result is not 0, x+2 is not a factor..

$2{(-2)}^{3}-{(-2)}^{2}-3\times -2-210 = -224$

Substitute 3 into x. Since the result is not 0, x-3 is not a factor..

$2\times {3}^{3}-{3}^{2}-3\times 3-210 = -174$

Substitute -3 into x. Since the result is not 0, x+3 is not a factor..

$2{(-3)}^{3}-{(-3)}^{2}-3\times -3-210 = -264$

Substitute 5 into x. Since the result is 0, x-5 is a factor..

$2\times {5}^{3}-{5}^{2}-3\times 5-210 =0$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

⇒ $x-5$

4) Polynomial Division: Divide $2{x}^{3}-{x}^{2}-3x-210$ by $x-5$ .

$2x^{2}$ $9x$ $42$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

$x-5$ | $2x^{3}$ $-x^{2}$ $-3x$ $-210$

$2x^{3}$ $-10x^{2}$

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

$9x^{2}$ $-3x$ $-210$

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

$42x$ $-210$

$42x$ $-210$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

5) Rewrite the expression using the above.

$2x^2+9x+42$

$(2x^2+9x+42)(x-5)=0$

3) Solve for $x.$

$x=5$

4) Use the Quadratic Formula.

1 - In general, given $a{x}^{2}+bx+c=0$ , there exists two solutions where:

$x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} ,\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

2 - In this case, $a=2,b=9$ and $c = 42.$

$x=\frac{-9+\sqrt{9^2*-4*2*42} }{2*2} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{9^2-4*2*42} }{2*2}$

3 - Simplify.

$x=\frac{-9+\sqrt{255}i }{4} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{255}i }{4}$

5) Collect all solutions from the previous steps.

$x=5,\frac{-9+\sqrt{255}i }{4} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{255}i }{4}$
