The equation  x^6+6x^3+5=0 which is a sixth order equation can be solved easily by making a substitution that turns the equation into an equivalent quadratic equation.

We will make the substitution, x^3=y , to simplify the equation. The two roots of this equation are x=-1,x=-5^{{1}/{3}}

x^6+6x^3+5=(x^3)^2+6x^3+5=y^2+6y+5=0.

The next step is to solve for y in the equation on the right by factorization. We will look for two factors of 5 that add up to 6 and then use those factors to factorize the quadratic equation.

y^2+6y+5=0\\(y+1)(y+5)=0\\=>y=-1,y=-5

The next step is to change back from y to x starting with

y=-1.

x^3=y\\x^3=-1\\=>x=(-1)^{{1}/{3}}=-1.

The next step is to work out the value of x when  y=-5.x^3=y\\x^3=-5\\=>x=(-5)^{{1}/{3}}=-5^{{1}/{3}}

We are given equation :x^6+6x^3+5=0

Use\:the\:rational\:root\:theorem

\mathrm{Therefore,\:we\:need\:to\:check\:the\:following\:rational\:numbers:\quad }\pm \frac{1,\:5}{1}

-\frac{1}{1}\mathrm{\:is\:a\:root\:of\:the\:expression,\:so\:factor\:out\:}x+1

\mathrm{Compute\:}\frac{x^6+6x^3+5}{x+1}\mathrm{\:to\:get\:the\:rest\:of\:the\:eqution:\quad }x^5-x^4+x^3+5x^2-5x+5

Therefore, final factored form it

x^6\:+\:6x^3\:+\:5=\left(x+1\right)\left(x^5-x^4+x^3+5x^2-5x+5\right)

We can't factor it more.

Therefore,

x+1=0.

x=-1.

Therefore, the real solution of the equation would be -1.

It would be .43, rounded. You get this answer by taking all of the 10th graders (14) and looking at how many prefer sporting events (6). Then, you simply form a decimal from 6/14, and that comes out to .428, and .43 rounded up. I hope this helps! :)

andrezito [222]

Answer:

24(f(n))

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n+3) = 3^{n+3}\\f(n+1) = 3^{n+1}

so

f(n+3) - f(n+1) = 3^{n+3} - 3^{n+1}

= 27(3^n) - 3(3^n)

= 24(3^n)

= 24(f(n))

hope this helped! :)
