5x3-4x2-20x+16=0 Three solutions were found : x = 4/5 = 0.800 x = 2 x = -2Reformatting the input :Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2". 1 more similar replacement(s).
Step by step solution :Step 1 :Equation at the end of step 1 : (((5 • (x3)) - 22x2) - 20x) + 16 = 0 Step 2 :Equation at the end of step 2 : ((5x3 - 22x2) - 20x) + 16 = 0 Step 3 :Checking for a perfect cube : 3.1 5x3-4x2-20x+16 is not a perfect cube
Trying to factor by pulling out : 3.2 Factoring: 5x3-4x2-20x+16
Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :
Group 1: 5x3+16 Group 2: -4x2-20x
Pull out from each group separately :
Group 1: (5x3+16) • (1)Group 2: (x+5) • (-4x)

I hope it helps

Answer:

$(5x-4)(x^2+4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the given expression

$5x^3-4x^2+20x-16$

We need to find the factor form of given expression.

Using grouping method we get

$(5x^3-4x^2)+(20x-16)$

Taking out highest common factors from each group.

$x^2(5x-4)+4(5x-4)$

Taking out common factors.

$(5x-4)(x^2+4)$

Therefore, the factored form of given expression is $(5x-4)(x^2+4)$ .

1. Describe how factoring a quadratic expression ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 1, is different from factoring x2 + bx + c.

Afina-wow [57]

1. Factoring a quadratic expression ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 1, is different from factoring x2 + bx + c because for the former type of expression you have to factor out the value of "a". Then, proceed to the factoring steps as usual.

2. To confirm the equations to be equal with the parent function we do as follows:
 (2x – 4)(x + 5) = 2x^2 + 10x - 4x - 20 = 2x^2 + 6x -20
(x – 2)(2x + 10) = 2x^2 +10x - 4x -20 = 2x^2 +6x - 20

3. The roots of the quadratic expression represents the values of x that would satisfy the expression. The x-intercepts are the values of x when y is equal to zero, it is where the plot touches intersects the x-axis.

List a positive and negative number whose absolute value is greater than 3?

Georgia [21]

Answer: |5|, |-6|, |4|, |-3.5|

Step-by-step explanation: The absolute value is related with the distance between the number and the zero of the number line, then each number greater than 3 will have an absolute value greater than 3, as we can see in the picture, the numbers positive or negative will have a positive distance to the origin of the number line.
