You have to searh the x values that make f(x) = 0
Factoring this equation is very difficult.
You can divide by x+3 and you will find that the equation can be factored as
(x+3)(x-4)^2
That means that x = -3 and x = 4 make f(x) = 0
Then the points are (-3,0) and (4,0).
I'm for sure know that it is function is linear but i would wait for others to answer also
7/8 because you subtract them both by either turning them into decimals and subtracting and the

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
r + 2 - 8r = -3 - 8r
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>r</u></em>
- Combine like terms: -7r + 2 = -3 - 8r
- Add 8r to both sides: r + 2 = -3
- Subtract 2 on both sides: r = -5
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in r into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>r</em>: -5 + 2 - 8(-5) = -3 - 8(-5)
- Multiply: -5 + 2 + 40 = -3 + 40
- Add: -3 + 40 = -3 + 40
- Add: 37 = 37
Here we see that 37 does indeed equal 37.
∴ r = -5 is a solution of the equation.
<u>Step 4: Define equation</u>
-4x = x + 5
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Subtract <em>x</em> on both sides: -5x = 5
- Divide -5 on both sides: x = -1
<u>Step 6: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: -4(-1) = -1 + 5
- Multiply: 4 = -1 + 5
- Add: 4 = 4
Here we see that 4 does indeed equal 4.
∴ x = -1 is a solution of the equation.
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
PQ + QR + RS = PS
2x-6 + 1 + x-4 = 18
Combine like terms
3x -9 = 18
Add 9 to each side
3x-9+9= 18-9
3x = 27
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 27/3
x = 9
