Answer:

x=2 ; x=-4 or x=-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a cubic polynomial

2x^3+7x^2-10x-24=0  

Here as we are having a cubic equation to factorize, we have to find some value of x such that when we put that value in place of x , it gives us a 0. We have to try it randomly like first we try it for x=1 then x=2 and so on.

On trying for x=2 , we see that the equation becomes 0=0 and hence x=2 is one of the solution. And also as x=2 is one of the solution, (x-2) must be one of the factor. Now we use this property to determine the other factor like this.

2x^3+7x^2-10x-24=0

Adding and subtracing 4x^2 to 2x^3 we get

2x^3-4x^2+4x^2+7x^2-10x-24=0

Now we take out 2x^2 as GCF

2x^2(x-2)+11x^2-10x-24=0

Now subtracting and adding 22x to 11x^2

2x^2(x-2)+11x^2-22x+22x-10x-24=0

taking 11x^2 as GCF out  

2x^2(x-2)+11x(x-2)+22x-10x-24=0

2x^2(x-2)+11x(x-2)+12x-24=0

2x^2(x-2)+11x(x-2)+12(x-2)=0

Now taking (x-2) out as GCF

(x-2)(2x^2+11x+12)

Now we need to split the middle term of (2x^2+11x+12) to factorize it in such a way that their product is 2*12 and sum is 11. We have 8 and 3 as these factors.

Hence it can be factored like this

(2x^2+11x+12)\\2x^2+8x+3x+12\\2x(x+4)+3(x+4)\\(2x+3)(x+4)

Hence our answer will be

(x-2)(2x+3)(x+4)=0

And thus the solutions will be

x-2=0 : x=2

x+4=0 ; x=-4

2x+3=0 ; x=-\frac{3}{2}

Answer:

x = 2

x = -4

x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the roots of the equation

2x^3 + 7x^2 – 10x – 24 = 0

We can factorize the equation into

(x-2)(x+4)(2x + 3) = 0

Roots

x = 2

x = -4

x = -3/2

Seven cakes cost £2.10 how much do 10 cakes cost
Len [333]
Ten cakes costs $2.19 (pounds, but I don't have a pounds symbol on my computer) because if you divide $2.10 by seven you get $0.3, and if you add 3×0.3 (because we have seven, and we need to add three more to get ten) we get $0.9.
 
0.9+2.10=2.19

The scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is 4

<h3>How to determine the scale factor from Figure A to Figure B?</h3>

From the question, we have the following statement:

Figure B is a scaled copy of Figure A.

The corresponding side lengths of figure A and figure B are:

Figure A = 10

Figure B = 40

The scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is then calculated as:

Scale factor = Figure B/Figure A

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Scale factor = 40/10

Evaluate the quotient

Scale factor = 4

Hence, the scale factor from Figure A to Figure B is 4
