Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of -3 are 1, -1, 3, +3. So:
| 2 -7 8 -3
<u>1 | 2 -5 3</u>
| 2 -5 3 0
<u> 1 | 2 -3 </u>
2 -3 0
So the factorization is (x-1)² (2x-3)=0. So:
Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of -4 are 1, -1, 2, -2, 4, -4. So:
| 1 -1 0 -4
<u>2 | 2 2 </u>
1 2 2 0
So the factorization is (x-2)(x²+x+2)=0 . When calculating the discriminant of the trinomial, it is concluded that it has no roots since the result is negative. So you only have one solution.
Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of 2 are 1, -1, 2, -2. So:
| 6 7 9 2
<u>-2 | -12 10 -2</u>
6 -5 1 0
So the factorization is (x+2)(6x²-5x+1)=0 . The quadratic equation is solved by the general formula:
