Upon a slight rearrangement this problem gets a lot simpler to see.
x^3-x+2x^2-2=0 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms...
x(x^2-1)+2(x^2-1)=0
(x+2)(x^2-1)=0 now the second factor is a "difference of square" of the form:
(a^2-b^2) which always factors to (a+b)(a-b), in this case:
(x+2)(x+1)(x-1)=0
So g(x) has three real zero when x={-2, -1, 1}
We divide 40 by 1/2:-
40 / 1/2 = 40 * 2/1 = 80 answer
I’m not entirely sure how to answer this without a word problem, but from what I see, all you have to do is multiply the two numbers.
12 x 43= 516
5 x 88 = 440
8x 63= 504
7 x 28= 196
Usually, when you see a number followed by another number in parentheses, like here, that means to multiply.
It’s b because it’s -85 f so the planet is colder
