Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
z = x^3 +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Noting the squared term, it makes sense to substitute for that term:
z = x^3 +1
gives ...
16z^2 -22z -3 = 0 . . . . the quadratic you want
_____
<em>Solutions derived from that substitution</em>
Factoring gives ...
16z^2 -24z +2z -3 = 0
8z(2z -3) +1(2z -3) = 0
(8z +1)(2z -3) = 0
z = -1/8 or 3/2
Then we can find x:
x^3 +1 = -1/8
x^3 = -9/8 . . . . . subtract 1
x = (-1/2)∛9 . . . . . one of the real solutions
__
x^3 +1 = 3/2
x^3 = 1/2 = 4/8 . . . . . . subtract 1
x = (1/2)∛4 . . . . . . the other real solution
The complex solutions will be the two complex cube roots of -9/8 and the two complex cube roots of 1/2.
Answer:
She will ride an average of 5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the average, add all the values together and divide by the amount of values:
3 + 5 + 4 + 8 = 20
20 ÷ 4 = 5
Average of 5 miles
4y + 228 = 352
4y = 352 - 228
4y = 124
