Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given cubic equation is

x^3-5x^2+3x+9=0

According to the rational root theorem 1 and -1 are possible rational roots of all polynomial.

At x=-1, the value of function 0. Therefore (x+1) is the factor of polynomial and -1 is a real root.

Use synthetic division to find the remaining polynomial.

(x+1)(x^2-6x+9)=0

(x+1)(x^2-2(3)x+3^2)=0

Using (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2

(x+1)(x-3)^2)=0

USe zero product property and equate each factor equal to 0.

x=-1,x=3,x=3

Therefore the equation have three real roots out of which the value of two roots are same.

Option C is correct.

The correct answer is letter C, because you have to calculate de discriminating which is 18abcd-4b^3d+b^2c^2-4ac^3-27a^2d^2 = 0
For your equation a=1, b=-5, c=3, d=9
So when the discriminating is equal zero, the equation has 3 real roots, two of which are equal in value.
You can prove this solving your equation using Ruffini's Rule and you will get the roots are: 3, 3, and -1

Solve using elimination.<br> 3x − 5y = 18 <br> -10x + 5y = 10
olga55 [171]

3x - 5y = 18 over

-10x + 5y = 10

Add them because the 5y's have the right symbols for us to add

-7x = 28

Divide

x = -4

Now you can plug in -4 for x in one equation, I would use the first equation!

3(-4) - 5y = 18

-12 - 5y = 18

Add 12

-5y = 30

Divide

y = -6

Your solutions are going to be:

x = -4

y = -6

To check your work plug x and y into one equation:

3(-4) - 5(-6) = 18

-12 + 30 = 18

18 = 18

Since 18 does equal 18 you know that your solution's work!
