Answer:

f(-3) = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

We need just substitute x with (-3) and calculate it.

f(-3) = (-3)² -2*(-3) + 3 = 9 + 6 +3 = 18

 ((((x4) -  5x2) -  6x) -  ——) -  3

                           x      

STEP

:

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

3.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  x  as the denominator :

                     x4 - 5x2 - 6x     (x4 - 5x2 - 6x) • x

    x4 - 5x2 - 6x =  —————————————  =  ———————————————————

                           1                    x        

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

STEP

:

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  x4 - 5x2 - 6x  =   x • (x3 - 5x - 6)

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

4.2    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = x3 - 5x - 6

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  x  for which   F(x)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  1  and the Trailing Constant is  -6.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1

of the Trailing Constant :  1 ,2 ,3 ,6

Let us test ....

  P    Q    P/Q    F(P/Q)     Divisor

     -1       1        -1.00        -2.00    

     -2       1        -2.00        -4.00    

     -3       1        -3.00        -18.00    

     -6       1        -6.00        -192.00    

     1       1        1.00        -10.00    

     2       1        2.00        -8.00

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

4.3       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

x • (x3-5x-6) • x - (10)     x5 - 5x3 - 6x2 - 10

————————————————————————  =  ———————————————————

           x                          x

:

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

5.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  x  as the denominator :

        3     3 • x

   3 =  —  =  —————

        1       x  

Checking for a perfect cube :

5.2    x5 - 5x3 - 6x2 - 10  is not a perfect cube

Trying to factor by pulling out :

5.3      Factoring:  x5 - 5x3 - 6x2 - 10

Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :

Group 1:  -6x2 - 10

Group 2:  x5 - 5x3

Pull out from each group separately :

Group 1:   (3x2 + 5) • (-2)

Group 2:   (x2 - 5) • (x3)

Bad news !! Factoring by pulling out fails :

The groups have no common factor and can not be added up to form a multiplication.

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

5.4    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = x5 - 5x3 - 6x2 - 10

    See theory in step 4.2

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  1  and the Trailing Constant is  -10.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1

of the Trailing Constant :  1 ,2 ,5 ,10

If a1 = 8 and an = an-1 + 5 then find the value of a5.
Nimfa-mama [501]

Step-by-step explanation:

A1=8

A2=A1+5 plug 8 into A1 here. After getting the value, put into next equation. And repeat until you get A5

A3=A2+5

A4=A3+5

A5=A4+5

3x+1+5x=7+15+7x what is x?
LenKa [72]

Answer: x=21

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x you must first combine you like terms on each side of the equal sign. So you problem will become 8x+1=22+7x. Then get your x on one side and your numbers on the other by taking the one away from the right side and 1 away from 22. Then take away 7 from the left side to cancel it out. Then take 7x away from 8x to leave you with x. making your answer x=21
