Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - 2(x - 1) = 2 + 4x

3 - 2x + 2 = 2 + 4x

-2x + 5 = 2 + 4x

-2x - 4x = 2 - 5

-6x = -3

x = -3/-6

x = 1/2

You would multiply the negative two by x then the negative to by negative one then you would get 3-2x+2=2+4x then you would ad 2 x to 4x and get 6x the. Subtract 3-2 and you would get 1 the. You would subtract the 2 from the 1 and get -1 and you would get -1=6x so you would divide 6x and 1 and you would get x=-1/6 ( hope this helps)

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x³ + 4x² + 7x + 6

possible rational roots are ±{1, 2, 3, 6}

Try x = -2

-2 | 1 4 7 6

| ↓ -2 -4 -6

1 2 3 0 ← remainder is 0 so x = -2 is a root ⇒ (x + 2) = 0

The factored polynomial x² + 2x + 3 = 0 is not factorable so use the quadratic formula to find the roots.

a=1, b=2, c=3

$x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

$x=\dfrac{-(2)\pm\sqrt{(2)^2-4(1)(3)} }{2(1)}$

$x=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{4-12} }{2}$

$x=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{-8} }{2}$

$x=\dfrac{-2\pm2i\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$x = -1 \pm i\sqrt{2}$

$x = -1 + i\sqrt{2}$ $x = -1 - i\sqrt{2}$

$x - (-1 + i\sqrt{2})=0$ $x - (-1 - i\sqrt{2})=0$

The factors are:

$(x - 2)[x - (-1 + i\sqrt{2})][x - (-1 - i\sqrt{2})]$

What is 26/48 simplest form

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

13/14

Step-by-step explanation:

The GCF between 26 and 48 is 2. So divide 26/2=12 and 48/2=13 13/14. And after that you can not simplify anymore so 13/14 is 26/48 in it's simplest form.

Hope it helps!
