3x to the power of 3 + 21x squared + 36x = 0 by factoring the quadratic equation.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

x = 0, -4 and -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is "3x to the power of 3 + 21x squared + 36x = 0".

We can write this expression as follows :

$3x^3+21x^2+36x=0$

Taking 3x common.

$3x(x^2+7x+12)=0\\\\3x=0\ \text{and}\ (x^2+7x+12)=0$

x = 3

$x^2+7x+12=0\\\\x^2+3x+4x+12=0\\\\x(x+3)+4(x+3)=0\\\\(x+4)(x+3)=0\\\\x=-4,-3$

Hence, the solution of the given quadratic equation are x = 0, -4 and -3.

Can someone PLEASE help me solve this equation ? due soon

$\sf{Given : 3tanx + 7 = \dfrac{2}{(1 - sinx)(1 + sinx)}}$

We know that : (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²

$\implies \sf{3tanx + 7 = \dfrac{2}{1 - sin^2x}}$

We know that : 1 - sin²x = cos²x

$\implies \sf{3tanx + 7 = \dfrac{2}{cos^2x}}$

$\sf{\bigstar \ \ We \ know \ that : \boxed{\sf{\dfrac{1}{cos^2x} = sec^2x}}}$

$\implies \sf{3tanx + 7 = 2sec^2x}$

We know that : sec²x = 1 + tan²x

$\implies \sf{3tanx + 7 =2(1 + tan^2x)}$

$\implies \sf{2 + 2tan^2x - 3 tanx - 7 = 0}$

$\implies \sf{2tan^2x - 3 tanx - 5 = 0}$

$\implies \sf{2tan^2x - 5tanx + 2tanx - 5 = 0}$

$\implies \sf{2tanx(tanx + 1) - 5(tanx + 1) = 0}$

$\implies \sf{(tanx + 1)(2tanx - 5) = 0}$

$\implies \sf{tanx = -1 \ (or) \ tanx = \dfrac{5}{2} }$

Add the followinf expresion<br>b. x- 3y + 4z , y – 2x- 8z ,5x – 2y – 3z

Mariana [72]

Answer:

4x - 4y - 7z

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3y + 4z + y - 2x - 8z + 5x - 2y - 3z =

(x - 2x + 5x) + (y - 3y - 2y) + (4z - 8z - 3z) =

4x + (- 4y) + (-7z) =

4x - 4y - 7z <===
