So all the sides are equal so you'd want to set 2x = (5/2)x - 5. then solve the equation and x = 10

to solves the equation first subraxt (5/2)x from both sides and you wnd up with -0.5x = -5 then divide by -0.5 to get x = 10
hope this helped!

Do you agree with the statement that " cubic functions must have at least 1 x-intercept but not more than 3, whereas quadratic f

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Yes, I agree

Step-by-step explanation:

For the cubic function

A cubic function is represented as:

$f(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d$

A cubic function may have 1, 2 or 3 x intercepts. This is shown below

For 3 x intercepts

$y = x^3 - x$

Equate y to 0

$x^3 - x = 0$

Expand

$x(x^2 - 1) = 0$

Express $x^2 - 1$ as difference of two squares

$x(x - 1)(x +1 ) = 0$

x = 0 or 1 or -1

For 2 x intercepts

$y = x^3 - x$

$y =(x-5)^2)(x+7)$

Equate y to 0

$(x-5)^2(x+7) = 0$

Expand

$(x-5)(x-5)(x+7) = 0$

x= 5 or x = -7

For 1 x intercept

$y = x^3$

Equate y to 0

$x^3 = 0$

Take cube roots of both sides

$x = 0$

It has been shown above that a cubic function may have 1, 2 or 3.

So, I agree to the statement

For the quadratic function

A quadratic function will not have any x intercept when the function can not be factorized;

E.g.

$y = x^2 + x + 17$

The above function has no x intercept.

A quadratic function will have at least 1 x intercept when the function can be factorized;

E.g.

$y = x^2- 6x + 9$

Equate y to 0

$x^2- 6x + 9 = 0$

Expand

$x^2 - 3x - 3x + 9 = 0$

$(x - 3)(x-3) = 0$

$x = 3$

We've shown that a quadratic may have no x intercept, and it may also have x intercept(s)

Hence, I agree to both statement
