Answer:

≈ 1.32471795725...

Explanation:

If x is one less than its cube, then

x = x³ - 1,

x³ - x - 1 = 0

so f(x) = ? would be an appropriate (continuous) function to apply the Intermedate Value Theorem on some appropriate interval to see if it takes on the value 0 in that interval.

f(x) = x³ - x - 1

For large x the left hand side is positive, for x = 0 it is negative. The root can be calculated exactly, it is given by:

\sqrt[3]{\frac{1}{2} + \sqrt{\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{27} }  } + \sqrt[3]{\frac{1}{2} - \sqrt{\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{27} }  }

≈ 1.32471795725...

3- A rectangle has an area of 30 square meters arm a perimeter of 34 meters the dimensions , of the rectangle I 9 , a J v ft HA
Leto [7]
If you are looking for the answer to the question above you have to ask yourself what two numbers multiply to 30 and equal 17 when added up. We halve the perimeter to make this easier. So your answer is 15 and 2 because 15 *2=30. If the sides are 15 and 2 then, 15(2) +2(2)=34. There is your answer.
