Find two solutions to the equation (x^3 − 64)(x^5 − 1) = 0.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

the two roots are x = 1 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

(x³ − 64) (x⁵ − 1) = 0.

Now,

for the above relation to be true the  following condition must be followed:

Either  (x³ − 64) = 0 ............(1)

or

(x⁵ − 1) = 0 ..........(2)

Therefore,

considering the first equation, we have

(x³ − 64) = 0

adding 64 both sides, we get

x³ − 64 + 64 = 0 + 64

or

x³ = 64

taking the cube root both the sides, we have

∛x³ = ∛64

or

x = ∛(4 × 4 × 4)

or

x = 4

similarly considering the equation (2) , we have

(x⁵ − 1) = 0

adding the number 1 both the sides, we get

x⁵ − 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

or

x⁵ = 1

taking the fifth root both the sides, we get

\sqrt[5]{x^5}=\sqrt[5]{1}

also,

1 can be written as 1⁵

therefore,

\sqrt[5]{x^5}=\sqrt[5]{1^5}

or

x = 1

Hence,

the two roots are x = 1 and x = 4

1. The beginning steps for determining the center and radius of a circle using the completing the square method are shown below:
svet-max [94.6K]

(1) Answer : (x^2 - 6x + 9) + (y^2- 4y + 4) = 3 + (9 + 4)

Step 1: x^2 - 6x + y^2 - 4y = 3

Step 2: (x^2- 6x) + (y^2 - 4y) = 3

In completing the square method we take coefficient of x and divide by 2 and the square it . Then add it on both sides

The coefficient of x is -6. \frac{-6}{2} = (-3)^2 = 9

The coefficient of y is -4. \frac{-4}{2} = (-2)^2 = 4

Step : (x^2- 6x + 9) + (y^2 - 4y + 4) = 3 +9 + 4

(2) x^2 +  y^2 +  6x - 6y + 2 = 0

To find center and radius we write the equation in the form of

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 using completing the square form

Where (h,k) is the center and 'r' is the radius

x^2 +  y^2 +  6x - 6y + 2 = 0

(x^2 +  6x) +  (y^2  - 6y) + 2 = 0

In completing the square method we take coefficient of x and divide by 2 and the square it . Then add it on both sides

(x^2 +  6x + 9) +  (y^2  - 6y + 9)  = -2 + 9 + 9

(x + 3)^2 +  (x - 3)^2 = 16

Here h= -3 and k=3 and r^2 = 16 so r= 4

Center is (-3,3) and radius = 4

(c) Step 1: x^2 + 8x + y^2 -  6y = 11

Step 2: (x^2 + 8x) + (y^2 -  6y) = 11

Step 3: (x^2 + 8x + 16) + (y^2 - 6y + 9) = 11 + (16 + 9)

Step 4: (x^2 + 8x + 16) + (y^2 - 6y + 9) = 36

We factor out each quadratic

(x^2 + 8x + 16) = (x+4)(x+4) = (x+4)^2

((y^2 - 6y + 9)) = (x-3)(x-3) = (x-3)^2

Step 5 :(x + 4)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 6^2
