Three times (3 ·) a number (x) plus (+) 12 minus (-) 5 times (·) the same number (x) is (=) 22

3x + 12 - 5x = 22   Combine like terms (3x and -5x)
      -2x + 12 = 22   Subtract 12 from both sides
              -2x = 10   Divide both sides by -2
                 x = -5

Multiplicative Inverse Property 2 · a = 1 use the property
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

If you write a number as a fraction, that number's reciprocal is a fraction with the numerator and the denominator switched around. For example, the reciprocal of

4

5

is

5

4

. Some general rules to keep in mind:

-If the fraction has a

0

in the numerator, the reciprocal is undefined.

-If the fraction has a

0

in the denominator, the fraction itself is undefined. Thus it can't have a reciprocal.

-Any other fraction has exactly one reciprocal.

Finally, the reciprocal of a reciprocal is the original fraction. This means if you flip a fraction's numerator and denominator, and then flip them back, you get the number you started with.

Factor the polynomial completely over the set of complex numbers.
GenaCL600 [577]

If you evaluate your polynomial at x= - 3, the polynomial = 0. So, that means ( x + 3 ) is a factor. Either using long division, or synthetic division, you'll find out that 2x^3 - 9x^2 + 3x + 4 remains. Then if you try x = 4 on that remaining polynomial, it will = 0. Use long division or synthetic division to find out that 2x^2 - x - 1 is left over. That trinomial factors into ( 2x + 1 ) ( x - 1 ).

factored form is ( x+3 )( x - 4 )( 2x + 1 )( x - 1 )
