Answer:

x = -5/2    x=1      x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = 2x^3 + 5x^2 – 2x – 5

Use factor by grouping

p(x) = 2x^3 + 5x^2       – 2x – 5

Factor x^2 from the first group and -1 from the second group

    x^2(2x +5) -1( 2x+5)

Then factor out 2x+5

p(x) = (2x+5) (x^2-1)

Factor x^2 -1 as the difference of squares

p(x) = (2x+5)(x-1)(x+1)

Set to zero to find the x intercepts

0 = (2x+5)(x-1)(x+1)

Using the zero product property

2x+5 =0    x-1 =0   x+1 =0

2x = -5        x=1       x=-1

x = -5/2    x=1      x = -1

Answer:

The zeroes are (-1,0), (1, 0) and (-5/2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the zeroes by factoring:

2x^3 + 5x^2 - 2x - 5 = 0  

x^2(2x + 5) - 1(2x + 5) = 0

(x^2 - 1)(2x + 5) = 0

(x - 1)(x + 1)(2x + 5) = 0

So x = -1, 1, -5/2.

What is the simplified form of the expression?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

7c^2d-7c+4d-10

Step-by-step explanation:

Start off with the term that has c^2 in it. 5c^2d + 2C = 7c^2d, then since you have multiple choice, the d value differs between the two answer choices that have 7c^2d so you can do +3d +d to get +4d to get the fourth answer choice.

To check your work, you can add/subtract each term to see if you get 7c^2d-7c+4d-10
