 Hello there!

How are you doing today? I hope you are doing at least "okay".

g(x) = x³ + 2x² - x - 2

To find the zeros or the roots of a function, you need to set the function equal to 0 then solve for x.

x³ + 2x² - x - 2 = 0

Factor left side of the equation

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

Now we can set factors equal to 0

x + 1= 0 or x - 1 = 0 or x + 2 = 0

x= 0 - 1 or x = 0 + 1 or x= 0 - 2

x= -1 or x = 1 or x = -2

Thus,

The roots or the zeros of the function are:

-2, -1, 1

As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!

Answer:

Zeros are x=-2, -1, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

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

We use grouping method

We group first two terms and last two terms

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

Factor out GCF from each group

g(x) = x^2(x+ 2)-1(x +2)

FActor out x+2

g(x) =(x+ 2)(x^2-1)

To find out zeros , set g(x)=0

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

Now we set each factor =0 and solve for x

x+2=0, x= -2

x^2-1=0

x^2=1, take square root on both sides

x=1, x=-1

Zeros are x=-2, -1, 1

Write 0.001574 in scientific notation
love history [14]

Answer: 1.574 × 10-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 0.001574 into scientific notation, follow these steps:

Move the decimal 3 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 1.574, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10

Since we moved the decimal to the right the exponent n is negative

n = -3

Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10n

= 1.574 × 10-3

Find the two values of k for which y(x)=ekx is a solution of the differential equation
Travka [436]

Answer:

The 2 values of k are 3 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the given function  of y is a solution of the differential equation then it shall be able to satisfy it

Thus we have

y''-9y'+18y=0

Putiing y=e^{kx} in the above differential euation we get

\frac{d^2e^{kx}}{dx^2}-9\frac{de^{kx}}{dx}+18\cdot e^{kx}=0\\\\k^{2}e^{kx}-9k\cdot e^{kx}+18\cdot e^{kx}=0\\\\k^2-9k+18=0

Solving the above uadratic euation with the standard formula we get

k=\frac{-(-9)\pm \sqrt{(-9)^2-4\times 1\times 18} }{2}\\\\k_1=6\\\\k_2=3
