Answer:
x = -1 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly solve the quadratic expression of
2x^2-6x-8 = 0....it gives you the two brackets of.....(2x-8)(x+1)=0
then...you equate the two brackets to 0.separately
2x-8 = 0....which gives you...x = 4...as the first solution..then..;
x+1 = 0....which gives you...x = -1...as the second solution
Lines of symmetry if the triangle is isosceles.
4, 2, 1
For this case you must simplify the expression respecting the rules of multiplication of mathematics.
The steps to simplify the expression are the following:
First multiply what is in the parentheses
-2x ^ 2 (x - 5) + x (2x ^ 2 - 10x) + x
-2x ^ 3 + 10x ^ 2 + 2x ^ 3 - 10x ^ 2 + x
Then add the terms that have the same exponent
(-2x ^ 3 + 2x ^ 3) + (10x ^ 2 - 10x ^ 2) + x
x
The final simplification is
x
answer
x
