8 0

Answer:

(x + 1)(x - 1) (x- 2)(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving in steps:</u>

  • x^4 - 7x^3 + 9x² + 7 x – 10=
  • (x^4 - 1 )- (7x^3 - 7x) + (9x^2 - 9) =
  • (x^2 + 1)(x^2 - 1) - 7x(x^2 - 1) + 9(x^2 - 1) =
  • (x^2-1)(x^2 + 1 - 7x + 9) =
  • (x + 1)(x - 1)(x^2 - 7x + 10) =
  • (x + 1)(x - 1)((x^2 - 2x) - (5x - 10)) =
  • (x + 1)(x - 1) (x- 2)(x - 5)

The discriminant of the equation x^2 - 4x + 4 = 0 shows there will be solution(s).
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

one real

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

a = 1

b = -4

c = 4

Discriminate

Discriminate = sqrt(b^2 - 4*a*c)

Discriminate  = sqrt(  (-4)^2 - 4 * (1)(4) )

Discriminate = sqrt ( 16 - 16)

Discriminate = sqrt(0)

Discriminate = 0

That means the 1 real root is -  b / 2a = 4/(2*1) = - -2 = 2

Professor shepherd weighed two pieces of metal for an experiment. the piece of iron weighed 7/12 of a pound and the piece of alu
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The iron weighed 1/12 pound more than the aluminum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the aluminum is given as 1/2 pound. But that can also be written as 6/12 pound.

This is a subtraction problem (subtracting fractions...so also a common denominator problem)

In order to subtract fractions you have to get a common denominator.

7/12 - 1/2

= 7/12 - 6/12

= 1/12

The iron is 1/12 pound heavier than the aluminum.

Help me on this math question
Korolek [52]

To evaluate an algebraic expression, you have to substitute a number for each variable and perform the arithmetic operations. In the example above, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12. If we know the value of our variables, we can replace the variables with their values and then evaluate the expression.
