Answer:

5i and -5i

Step-by-step explanation:

Both of these would have to be in the equation for either of them to work, and as the problem already told us that there is only a 3rd root, neither will be our answer.

Have a great day, and feel free to comment with questions!

Answer:

5i and -5i

Step-by-step explanation:

Imaginary roots come in pairs, so the third root must be a real number. Therefore, neither 5i nor -5i can be the third root.

Please help!!!!!

-8.1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{ - 4}{9} x + 2.4 = 6$

Times all by 9 to get rid of fraction

$- 4x + 21.6 = 54$

Take 21.6 away from both sides

$- 4x = 32.4$

Divide by -4

$x = - 8.1$

The figures in the picture are similar to each other find the value of x

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar figures have sides that are proportional. Setting up a proportion for the sides of the figures will help solve for 'x':

$\frac{small}{large}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{(x-3)}{(x+1)}$

Cross-multiply: 3(x + 1) = 6(x - 3)

Distribute: 3x + 3 = 6x - 18

Combine like terms: 21 = 3x

Solve for 'x': x = 7
