Answer:

The solutions are x=-3,\:x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor this cubic polynomial x^3+3x^2-9x-27 you must:

  • Group the polynomial into two sections

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=\left(x^3+3x^2\right)+\left(-9x-27\right)

  • Factor out -9 from (-9x-27)

(-9x-27)=-9\left(x+3\right)

  • Factor out x^2 from (x^3+3x^2)

(x^3+3x^2)=x^2\left(x+3\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=-9\left(x+3\right)+x^2\left(x+3\right)

  • Factor out common term x+3

-9\left(x+3\right)+x^2\left(x+3\right)=\left(x+3\right)\left(x^2-9\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=\left(x+3\right)\left(x^2-9\right)

  • Factor x^2-9

x^2-9=\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27= \left(x+3\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=\left(x+3\right)^2\left(x-3\right)=0

  • Using the Zero Factor Theorem: = 0 if and only if = 0 or = 0

x+3=0, \quad{x=-3}\\x-3=0, \quad{x=3}

The solutions are

x=-3,\:x=3

Kevin is solving this problem. 737 × 205 What are the partial products Kevin will need to solve the problem? A. 3,685 and 147,40
Andrew [12]

the answer is A

700 x 5 = 3500

30 x 5 = 150

7 x 5 = 35

3500 + 150 +35 = 3685

700 x 200 = 140,000

30 x 200 = 6000

7 x 200 = 1400

140000 + 6000 + 1400 = 147400

Find what the measurements of angles a-d are and state the reason <br><br> Like how do you solve it?
ANTONII [103]
Angle d is a vertical angle to the 70° angle meaning that angle d is 70°--to confirm it, line EF is 180° and
180- 40-70= 70° (and 70/2 is 35 which is the measurement for angle e and f bc we know that they are equal)

To find a-- we know now that f is 35, bc a and f are vertical angles, that means a is equal to f...

ANSWER- a is 35° and d is 70°
