What are the solutions to the equation? 7x^3=28x

7x³ = 28x is our equation. We want its solutions.

When you have x and different powers, set the whole thing equal to zero.

7x³ = 28x

7x³ - 28x = 0

Now notice there's a common x in both terms. Let's factor it out.

x (7x² - 28) = 0

As 7 is a factor of 7 and 28, it too can be factored out.

x (7) (x² - 4) = 0

We can further factor x² - 4. We want a pair of numbers that multiply to 4 and whose sum is zero. The pairs are 1 and 4, 2 and 2. If we add 2 and -2 we get zero.

x (7) (x - 2) (x + 2) = 0

Now we use the Zero Product Property - if some product multiplies to zero, so do its pieces.

x = 0        -----> so x = 0

7 = 0       -----> no solution

x - 2 = 0   ----> so x = 2   after adding 2 to both sides

x + 2 = 0  ---> so = x - 2  after subtracting 2 to both sides


Thus the solutions are x = 0, x = 2, x = -2.

sid and Jill hiked 4 1/8 miles in the morning and 1 1/7 miles in the afternoon.how many times as far did they hike in the mornin
mote1985 [20]
Your answer is ..
First,
we have to turn our mixed fractions into an improper fraction.
=4 1/8 which is 33/8(4 x 8 + 1).

Our next mixed fraction,
we have 1 1/7 which is 8/7(1 x 7 + 1).

Now, we have the get the same denominator in order to subtract.
SO, both 8 and 7 goes in to 56. So we multiply both mixed fractions to get the same denominator.
(Tip: what ever you do to do numerator, you do to the denominator; and the other way around).
33/8 : 33*7=231 and our denominator, 8*7=56
So our improper fraction now,
231/56

Our next fraction 8/7,
7*8= 56 and our numerator 8*8=64.
=64/56

So, now we subtract.
231-64= 167 and our common denominator. 167/56

Now we divide 167 by 56 which is 2 and remainder is 55.
So, you should end up with a mixed fraction, 2 55/56.
