First get like things on the same side:
-5/6b - 1/2b= -2/3 - 3/4
Then find equivalent fractions to make the equation easier to solve.
-5/6b - 3/6b= -8/12 - 9/12
Then just add things together and solve.
-8/6b= -17/12
-8b= 6(-17/12)
-8b= -17/2
b= (-17/2)/-8
b= 17/16
You can then plug the answer back into the original question to make sure it is the correct answer.
Answer:
The other zeros are -2 and 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
As 1 is a zero then (x - 1) is a factor so we divide:
x - 1 )x^3-2x^2-5x+6(x^2-x-6
x^3-x^2
-x^2-5x
-x^2+x
-6x+6
-6x+6
...........
x^2 - x - 6 = 0
(x - 3)(x + 2)
x = -2, 3.
