Answer:

7 is not a solution for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if 7 is a solution for x, we will simply plug in the value for x and see if the left hand side is equal to the right hand side.

3x + 8 - x = 57 - 4

3(7) + 8 - (7) ?= 57 - 4

21 + 8 - 7 ?= 53

29 - 7 ?= 53

22 ?= 53  (( NO ))

Since 22 does not equal 53, 7 is not a solution for x.

Let's find the solution for x:

3x + 8 - x = 57 - 4

2x + 8 = 53

2x = 45

x = 22.5

Let's validate this solution for x:

3x + 8 - (x) = 57 - 4

3(22.5) + 8 - (22.5) ?= 57 - 4

67.5 + 8 - 22.5 ?= 53

45 + 8 ?= 53

53 == 53  (( YES ))

Since 53 is indeed equal to 53, then 22.5 is a solution for x.

Cheers.

Answer:

No, 7 is not a solution. x=11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find whether 7 is a solution, we can plug it in as x.

3(7)+8-7=57-4

21+15=53

36=53

No, 7 is not a solution.

We can find the solution by solving out the equation normally

3x+8+x=57-4

2x+8=53

2x=45

x=22.25

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

x = –7, x = 2, or x = 4 are factors of f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : f(x)  = 5x³ +5x²-170x +280 and x + 7 is one factor .

To find  : What are all the roots of the function.

Solution :  f(x)  = 5x³ +5x²-170x +280 .

We have given that x + 7 is factor that mean x = -7 is factor of f(x )

When we divide f(x) by x +7 we get

5x² -30x +40 =0

Taking common 5 from equation

5( x² -6x +8) =0

On dividing by 5 both sides

x² -6x +8 = 0

On factoring

x² -2x -4x +8 = 0.

Taking common x from first two terms and -4 from last two terms

x ( x -2) -4 (x -2) = 0

On grouping

(x-2) (x-4) = 0

x -2 =0

x =2

x-4 =0

x = 4

Therefore, x = –7, x = 2, or x = 4 are factors of f(x).
