Answer:

The value of x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that g(x) = 2 x + 4 and g (x ) = -8

⇒ Equating

2 x +4 = - 8

Subtracting '4' on both sides, we get

2 x + 4 - 4 = -8 -4

⇒ 2 x + 0 = -12

⇒ 2 x = -12

Step(ii):-

Dividing '2' on both sides, we get

x = -6

The value of x = -6

Which list of decimal numbers is in ascending order?

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

12.252, 12.26, 12.387, 12.4

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the only numbers in a series that are always increasing.

The first series (0.13, 0.31, 0.04, 0.5) and fourth series (6.009, 6.015, 6.241, 6.2) all have an area where they decrease (0.04 and 6.2 respectively).

The second series of numbers is in decreasing order, rather than increasing order. This can not be the answer.

What are the zeros of the polynomial function y=2x^3-7x^2+2x+3?

zlopas [31]

$y = 2 {x}^{3} - 7 {x}^{2} + 2x + 3$

By inspection 1 is a root of y ,
Hence , (x-1) is a factor of y ,

$\dfrac{2 {x}^{3} - 7 {x}^{2} + 2x + 3 }{x - 1} = 2 {x}^{2} - 5x - 3 \\ \\ 2 {x}^{2} - 5x - 3 = (2x + 1)(x - 3)$

Hence , the 2 other roots are -1/2 and 3 , and the above graphs confirms the same.

Hope it helps you :)
