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...

I need help on how to do combinations
Veronika [31]
Ok sure! Let's start with the marbles first. We have one red one blue and one green. There is a red and a blue cube. All we do is list the possible combinations of one marble and one cube. The answer would be : 1 blue marble, 1 blue cube. 1 red marble, 1 blue cube. 1 green marble, 1 blue cube. Then again but with the red cube. So in all, there are 6 possible combinations. Hope this helps. ☺️

Find the value of x - Step by step answer please
Ugo [173]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

\frac{8}{x+1} = \frac{-16}{x+4}

=============================================================

Cross multiplying the terms :

⇒ 8 (x + 4) = -16 (x + 1)

⇒ 8x + 32 = -16x - 16

⇒ 24x = -48

⇒ x = -2
