Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 is a perfect cube, 8 is a perfect cube, so we use difference of cubes.
Cube root of x^3 is x.
Cube root of 8 is 2
So
a=x
b= 2.
Set these equations equal to zero
If we do the discriminant, we get a negative answer so we would have two imaginary solutions,
Thus the only real root is 2.
If you want imaginary solutions, apply the quadratic formula.
and
They both have to be above the x axis, which makes B incorrect. B will be below the x axis. If you have a graphing calculator or know where there is one of the net, you can try it.
A and D are both wrong. The 1/2 does not become 2. What will happen is that 2 will make the graph wider.
There's only 1 answer left and that is
C <<<<<===== answer.
C reflects right across the y axis.
Inequalities and equations use similar steps to solve, but inequalities give a range of numbers that can represent the variable while an equation will give a direct answer.
Example:
4+5x=24
First you would subtract 4 or add the opposite of 4 from 24.
4+5x=24
+(-4) +(-4)
—————
5x=20
Then divide each side by 5 or multiply each side by the reciprocal of 5 to isolate the variable.
1/5*5x=20*1/5 (reciprocal)
X= 4
You would use the same steps in an inequality but end up with a different sign.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:(4+7)-(1)
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Order of operations multiplication then subtraction so 5*6=30
34-30=4
