Hello,
(x+2i)(x-2i)(x-4)=(x²+4)(x-4)=x^3-4x²+4x-16
Answer C
Let the two numbers be represented by x and y respectively.
Then x + y = 23, and x - y = 5.
Solve this system of linear equations for x and y. Start by rearranging them vertically:
x + y = 23
x - y = 5
--------------- Combining the two equations eliminates y:
2x = 28.
Then x = 14. If x = 14, then 14 + y = 23, and y = 9..
The solution is (14, 9); that is, x = 14 and y = 9.
x=3 is your answer. This is because it only crosses the x-axis and this occurs at positive 3. y=3 on the other hand would be a horizontal line that only touches positive 3 on the y-axis.
The <em>approximate</em> solution of the equation shown in the picture is x ≈ 39 / 8 (Right choice: B).
<h3>How to find an approximate solution of a one-variable equation</h3>
The solution of the equation is between x = 4 and x = 5. Now we begin by evaluating each side of the expression (f(x) = x² - 5 · x + 4, g(x) = 2 / (x - 1)) at the average of x = 4 and x = 5.
x = (4 + 5) / 2
x = 4.5
f(4.5) = 4.5² - 5 · 4.5 + 1
f(4.5) = - 5 / 4
g(4.5) = 2 / (4.5 - 1)
g(4.5) = 4 / 7
The solution of the equation is between x = 4.5 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:
x = (4.5 + 5) / 2
x = 4.75
f(4.75) = 4.75² - 5 · 4.75 + 1
f(4.75) = - 3 / 16
g(4.75) = 2 / (4.75 - 1)
g(4.75) = 8 / 15
The solution of the equation is between x = 4.75 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:
x = (4.75 + 5) / 2
x = 4.875
f(4.875) = 4.875² - 5 · 4.875 + 1
f(4.875) = 25 / 64
g(4.875) = 2 / (4.875 - 1)
g(4.875) = 16 / 31
The <em>approximate</em> solution of the equation shown in the picture is x ≈ 39 / 8 (Right choice: B).

Answer: yes
Step-by-step explanation: because you would get the same number cause anything plus or even divided by 0 then 8 each time you try ex: 8 + 0 = 8
8 - 0 = 8
