Find the value of x when 6-4x = 6x-8x-2.

Mathematics
1 answer:
mestny [16]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6−4x=6x−8x−2

6+−4x=6x+−8x+−2

−4x+6=(6x+−8x)+(−2)(Combine Like Terms)

−4x+6=−2x+−2

−4x+6=−2x−2

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

−4x+6+2x=−2x−2+2x

−2x+6=−2

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−2x+6−6=−2−6

−2x=−8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x−2=−8−2

x=4

Find the polynomial function
laiz [17]

Answer:

y = 2x³ +x² -3x +6

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial correlation function of a graphing calculator can work with the table of function values to give you the equation. (See attached)

_____

If you want to solve this by hand, you can write the equations for the unknown coefficients in the polynomial function, then solve those. First of all, notice that you are given the y-intercept, (0, 6), so you know one of the coefficients already. That leaves a system of 3 equations in 3 unknowns that need to be solved.

___

<em>Writing the equations</em>

... ax³ +bx² +cx +6 = y . . . . the generic linear equation in a, b, c that you're writing

For x = -1:

... -a +b -c +6 = 8

For x = 1

... a + b + c + 6 = 6

For x = 2

... 8a +4b +2c +6 = 20

In augmented matrix terms, this set of linear equations looks like ...

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}-1&1&-1&2\\1&1&1&0\\8&4&2&14\end{array}\right]

___

<em>Solving the equations</em>

There are a number of ways to solve these. Again, a graphing calculator often has solution functions, such as reducing a matrix to row-echelon form, that will solve this in a keystroke or two.

If you add the first two equations, you get ...

... 2b = 2 ⇒ b = 1

Substituting that into the first equation allows you to simplify it to ...

... -a -c = 1

Dividing the third equation by 2 (and substituting for b) makes it ...

... 4a +c = 5

Adding these equations gives ...

... 3a = 6 ⇒ a = 2

Then ...

... c = -a -1 = -2 -1 = -3

And our polynomial function is ...

... y = 2x³ +x² -3x +6

<span>Let's analyze Hannah's work, step-by-step, to see if she made any mistakes. 

</span>In Step 1, Hannah wrote \dfrac{d}{dx} (-3+8x) <span> as the sum of two separate derivatives </span>\dfrac{d}{dx}(-3)+ \dfrac{d}{dx} (8x) <span>using the </span><span>sum rule.
</span>
This step is perfectly fine. 

In Step 2, \dfrac{d}{dx}(8x) was kept as it is, and \dfrac{d}{dx}(-3) was rewritten as 0 using the constant rule.Indeed, according to the constant rule, the derivative of a constant number is equal to zero.

This step is perfectly fine. 

In Step 3, \dfrac{d}{dx} (8x)  was rewritten as \dfrac{d}{dx}(8) \dfrac{d}{dx}(x) supposedly using the constant multiple rule.

The problem is that according to the constant multiple rule, \dfrac{d}{dx}(8x)&#10; should be rewritten as 8 \dfrac{d}{dx}(x) and not as \dfrac{d}{dx}(8)\dfrac{d}{dx}(x).  

<span>Therefore, Hannah made a mistake in this step.</span>

Round the number to the hundredths place. 26,379.87492
Ivahew [28]
If you look at the numbers past the decimal point, the first digit - 8 - is in the tenths place. So, - 7 - is in the hundredths. What number is beside that? 4. When you round four, does it go up to ten or down to zero? Which is it closer to? The answer is zero.

So, the 7 in the hundredths place stays the same and any numbers after it are turned to zeros and cut off. Ending up with 26,379.87
