Answer:
x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) = x³ − 4x² − x + 22
This is a cubic equation, so it must have either 1 or 3 real roots.
Using rational root theorem, we can check if any of those real roots are rational. Possible rational roots are ±1, ±2, ±11, and ±22.
g(-1) = 18
g(1) = 18
g(-2) = 0
g(2) = 12
g(-11) = 1782
g(11) = 858
g(-22) = -12540
g(22) = 8712
We know -2 is a root. The other two roots are irrational. To find them, we must find the other factor of g(x). We can do this using long division, or we can factor using grouping.
g(x) = x³ − 4x² − 12x + 11x + 22
g(x) = x (x² − 4x − 12) + 11 (x + 2)
g(x) = x (x − 6) (x + 2) + 11 (x + 2)
g(x) = (x (x − 6) + 11) (x + 2)
g(x) = (x² − 6x + 11) (x + 2)
x² − 6x + 11 = 0
Quadratic formula:
x = [ 6 ± √(36 − 4(1)(11)) ] / 2
x = (6 ± 2i√8) / 2
x = 3 ± i√8
The three roots are x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8.
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
To set up for this answer, we need to set it up as an equation: 2x+12=5x-9.
get the xs on one side and the whole numbers on the other.
that leaves you with 21=3x.
divide by 3 on both sides to get the answer of x=7
Either SSS or not possible
Mark if correct!
12 people ⇒8 cups
1 person ⇒ 8/12 = 2/3 cup
7 persons ⇒ 2/3 x 7 = 14/3 4 2/3 cups
