Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

a=- \frac{ x^{2}- \sqrt{( x^{3} + x^{2} b+12x-72(x-2)-2x} }{x-2} ,- \frac{ x^{2}+ \sqrt{( x^{3} + x^{2} b+12x-72(x-2)-2x} }{x-2}

Solve for b by simplifying both sides of the equation then isolating the variable.

b= \frac{12}{x}+ \frac{72}{ x^{2} }-2+2a- \frac{4a}{x}+ \frac{ a^{2} }{x}- \frac{2a^{z} }{ x^{2} }

Hopefully i helped ^.^ Mark brainly if possible. Lol once again i saw the same question so why not answer it again!

Given the polynomial 2x3 + 18x2 − 18x − 162, what is the value of the coefficient 'k' in the factored form?2x3 + 18x2 − 18x − 16
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

k=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

f(x)=2x^3+18x^2-18x-162

We factor 2 to obtain;

f(x)=2(x^3+9x^2-9x-81)

We factor the polynomial within the parenthesis by grouping.

f(x)=2(x^2(x+9)-9(x+9)

f(x)=2(x^2-9)(x+9)

f(x)=2(x^2-3^2)(x+9)

We apply difference of two squares on the second factor: x^2-3^2=(x-3)(x+3)

f(x)=2(x+3)(x-3)(x+9)

We now compare to;

f(x)=2(x+k)(x-k)(x+9)

It is now obvious that k=3
