Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 2x³ + 3x² - 3x - 2

Note that

f(1) = 2 + 3 - 3 - 2 = 0 , thus

(x - 1) is a factor

Dividing f(x) by (x - 1) gives

f(x) = (x - 1)(2x² + 5x + 2) = (x - 1)(x + 2)(2x + 1)

To find the roots equate f(x) to zero, that is

(x - 1)(x + 2)(2x + 1) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

2x + 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 1 ⇒ x = - \frac{1}{2}

The solution set is therefore

{ - 2, - \frac{1}{2}, 1 } → C

Solve for x. Assume that lines which appear to be diameters are actually diameters​
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: number 7. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

7X + 1 + -5X = 15

Reorder the terms:

1 + 7X + -5X = 15

Combine like terms: 7X + -5X = 2X

1 + 2X = 15

Solving

1 + 2X = 15

Solving for variable 'X'.

Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.

1 + -1 + 2X = 15 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0

0 + 2X = 15 + -1

2X = 15 + -1

Combine like terms: 15 + -1 = 14

2X = 14

Divide each side by '2'.

X = 7

Simplifying

X = 7
