Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

(a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3) = a(2a^2 + 3a + 3) -3(2a^2 + 3a + 3)

  = 2a^3 +3a^2 +3a -6a^2 -9a -9

  = 2a^3 +a^2(3 -6) +a(3 -9) -9

  = 2a^3 -3a^2 -6a -9

  = 2(a^3 -1.5a^2 -3a -4.5) . . . . the form you're asking about

<h3>Answer: Yes they are equivalent</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

Expand out the first expression to get

(a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3)

a(2a^2 + 3a + 3) - 3(2a^2 + 3a + 3)

2a^3 + 3a^2 + 3a - 6a^2 - 9a - 9

2a^3 + (3a^2-6a^2) + (3a-9a) - 9

2a^3 - 3a^2 - 6a - 9

Divide every term by 2 so we can pull out a 2 through the distributive property

2a^3 - 3a^2 - 6a - 9 = 2(a^3 - 1.5a^2 - 3a - 4.5)

This shows that (a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3) is equivalent to 2(a^3 - 1.5a^2 - 3a - 4.5)

Find the X Intercepts y=x^2-3x+6<br> PLEASE HELP ME
Nat2105 [25]

The x intrercepts is where the function crosses the x axis; In other words, it is where the output of the function is 0.

In a quadratic, you can start by factoring, if it’s unable to be factored then use the quadratic formula. Also, it is good to use the discriminate.

D= Discrimminate

D>0 2 real solutions

D=0 1 real solution

D<0 2 imaginary solutions.

The discrimminate is the equation/expression under the radical of the quadratic formula. With this formula, it’s not factorable. Using the discriminate it is also seen, as you’ll get a negative in the square root. This is imagenary because you cannot take the root of a negative value, which is why “i” is used to represent the square root of negative one.
