Answer:
Solution Given:
To find the simplest form we need to open bracket
-2x²(3x²-2x-6)
-2x²*3x²-2x²*(-2x) -2x²*(-6)\
is a required answer.
A good place to start is to set
to y. That would mean we are looking for
to be an integer. Clearly,
, because if y were greater the part under the radical would be a negative, making the radical an imaginary number, not an integer. Also note that since
is a radical, it only outputs values from
, which means y is on the closed interval:
.
With that, we don't really have to consider y anymore, since we know the interval that
is on.
Now, we don't even have to find the x values. Note that only 11 perfect squares lie on the interval
, which means there are at most 11 numbers that x can be which make the radical an integer. All of the perfect squares are easily constructed. We can say that if k is an arbitrary integer between 0 and 11 then:

Which is strictly positive so we know for sure that all 11 numbers on the closed interval will yield a valid x that makes the radical an integer.
Trapezoid: four sides, two of which are parallel.
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m represents the slope, and on this equation, instead of m we have -3. So -3 is the slope
