Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

3n = n² - 54

n² - 3n - 54 = 0

n² - 9n + 6n - 54 = 0

n(n - 9) + 6(n - 9) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 6) = 0

n = 9 , -6

Which system of equations can be used to find the roots of the equation 4x^2=x^3+2x?
irina [24]
Next time, please share the answer choices.
Starting from scratch, it's possible to find the roots:

<span>4x^2=x^3+2x should be rearranged in descending order by powers of x:

x^3 - 4x^2 + 2x = 0.  Factoring out x:  </span>x(x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0

Clearly, one root is 0.  We must now find the roots of (x^2 - 4x + 2):

Here we could learn a lot by graphing.  The graph of y = x^2 - 4x + 2 never touches the x-axis, which tells us that (x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0 has no real roots other than x=0.  You could also apply the quadratic formula here; if you do, you'll find that the discriminant is negative, meaning that you have two complex, unequal roots.

Someone i need help i cant expand these expressions
vovangra [49]

Answer: The answer is 5x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3(9x+16+2)+2x

= 1/3(9x)+1/3(16)+1/3(2)+2x

=3x/1+16/3+2/3+2x/1

=3x/1+2x/1+16/3+2/3

Take the L.C.M

=3x+2x/1+16+2/3

=5x/1+18/3

=5x+6
