Answer:
- 3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
- 5x + 4 = 20
- 5x = 20 - 4
- 5x = 16
x = 16 / - 5
x = - 3.2
The answer is a = 132.93 cm2
Answer:
x = - 3 with multiplicity 2
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = (x - 3)(x + 3)(x + 3) = (x - 3)(x + 3)²
Equating each factor to zero and solving for x
x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3 with multiplicity 1
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = -3
Thus x = - 3 has multiplicity of 2
The fact that the factor is squared gives the multiplicity
(x + 3)³ has root - 3 of multiplicity 3
5/3 and 6/2 because the pattern shows that it adds one to the numerator while it deducts one from the denominator.
Use PEMDAS
1. 2(2^2)-2
=2(4)-2
=8-2
=6
2. 2((-2)^2)-(-2)
=2(4)+2
=8+2
=10
