3x² = 16x - 5
3x² - 16x + 5 = 16x - 16x - 5 + 5
3x² - 16x + 5 = 0
x = <u>-(-16) +/- √((-16)² - 4(3)(5))</u>
                       2(3)
x = <u>16 +/- √(256 - 60)</u>
                   6
x = <u>16 +/- √(196)</u><u /><u /><u />
                6
x = <u>16 +/- 14 </u>
             6
x = <u>16 + 14</u>    x = <u>16 - 14</u>
            6                   6
x = <u>30</u>            x = <u>2</u>
       6                   6
x = 5              x = 0.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

X - the number

3x^2=16x-5 \\&#10;3x^2-16x+5=0 \\&#10;3x^2-15x-x+5=0 \\&#10;3x(x-5)-1(x-5)=0 \\&#10;(3x-1)(x-5)=0 \\&#10;3x-1=0 \ \lor \ x-5=0 \\&#10;3x=1 \ \lor \ x=5 \\&#10;x=\frac{1}{3} \ \lor \ x=5

The number is 1/3 or 5.

The equation of line AB is y = 2x + 4. Write an equation of a line parallel to line AB in slope-intercept form that contains poi
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option D</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

y = 2x + 4

comparing with the above equation for a line

The slope / m = 2

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = 2

So we have

The equation of the line using point

( 3 , -2) and slope 2 is

y + 2 = 2( x - 3)

y + 2 = 2x - 6

y = 2x - 6 - 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>y = 2x - 8</h3>

Hope this helps you

finlep [7]
Prime factorization of 1728 is 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
Simplifying the above expression: 26 × 33
Simplifying further: 123
Therefore, the cube root of 1728 by prime factorization is (2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3)1/3 = 12
