-4x +4 = -3x + 31
4 - 31 = -3x + 4x
-27 = x
Answer: D all of the above
Step-by-step explanation:
Next time, please share the answer choices.
Starting from scratch, it's possible to find the roots:
<span>4x^2=x^3+2x should be rearranged in descending order by powers of x:
x^3 - 4x^2 + 2x = 0. Factoring out x: </span>x(x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0
Clearly, one root is 0. We must now find the roots of (x^2 - 4x + 2):
Here we could learn a lot by graphing. The graph of y = x^2 - 4x + 2 never touches the x-axis, which tells us that (x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0 has no real roots other than x=0. You could also apply the quadratic formula here; if you do, you'll find that the discriminant is negative, meaning that you have two complex, unequal roots.
