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

What's 14 ten thousands + 12 thousand
statuscvo [17]
The answer to this question would be 152,000

In this question, you are given multiple number names and asked to add it. To answer this question, it will be easier to split the sentences into multiple parts like this:
<span>1. "14 ten thousands" mean 14 * 10,000 =140,000
</span><span>2. "12 thousands" mean 12 * 1,000= 12,000
Then, if you add them up it will be: 140,000+ 12,000= 152,000</span>

Find the 52nd term of the given arithmetic sequence-30, -38, -46, -54...
torisob [31]

The sequence is given to be:

-30,-38,-46,-54...

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is calculated using the formula:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

where a₁ is the first term, n is the number of terms, and d is the common difference.

From the given sequence, the following parameters can be gotten:

\begin{gathered} a_1=-30 \\ d=-38-(-30)=-8 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the parameters can be substituted into the formula to find the 52nd term:

\begin{gathered} n=52 \\ \therefore \\ a_{52}=-30+(52-1)(-8) \\ a_{52}=-30+51(-8)=-30-408 \\ a_{52}=-438 \end{gathered}

The 52nd term is -438.

Linear equations... HELP!
fgiga [73]
The answer is m = 250 - 25w.
This is because this answer is in y=mx+b format (slope-intercept form) and has the correct values.
In slope-intercept form, m is the slope and b is y-intercept.
In m = 250 - 25w, the y-intercept is 250 and the slope is -25.
This matches the graph.
Y-intercept is where a line crosses the y-axis, which is 250 in this case.
The slope is negative since the values are decreasing over time (as x-values increase, y-values decrease).

The length of OM is 4/3 the length of OJ, and the length of ON is 4/3 the length of OK. Thus, two pairs of sides from the triangles are proportional to each other.

Also, angle O from one of the triangles is equal to angle O of the other triangle because they are the same angle.

Thus, the two triangles are similar by SAS (side-angle-side) similarity theorem. This theorem is quite similar to the SAS congruence theorem.

To make a similarity statement, we just have to match corresponding parts when naming the triangle.
