Subtract 5a from both sides

-3=3a+6


Subtract 6 from both sides

-9=3a

Divide by three

a= -9/3 (which is -3)

Remember what you do to one side you must do to the other

To find the answer you do:
5a-3=8a+6
5a-8a-3=8a-8a+6
-3a-3=6
-3a-3+3=6+3
-3a=9
-3a/-3=9/-3
a=-3
So a is equal to -3.

If a polynomial function f(x)has root -2 + square root 8 and 9 what must be a factor of f(x)
Rasek [7]

Answer:

(x+2-\sqrt{9}) , (x-2+\sqrt{9}) ,(x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that f(x) is a polynomial function.

This implies that f(x) has x terms of positive integral degrees and also rational coefficients only.

Since an irrational root is given a root of f(x), we find that its conjugate also should be a root of f(x)

i.e. If -2+\sqrt{8} is a root, then -2-\sqrt{8} is also a root.

(Because this only when multiplied will make coefficients rational)

So the factors of f(x) should be atleast

(x+2-\sqrt{9}) , (x-2+\sqrt{9}) ,(x-9)

There can be other factors also but this is compulsory
