Subtract x^10 from both sides. add 17 to both sides. divide both sides by 7.3 take root and the answer should be x=1.08821, -1.08821
If the multiplicity is even, the x-intercept will touch the x-axis and turn away (sometimes people call this "kissing" the x-axis). If the multiplicity is odd, the intercept will go right through the x-axis, so the answer to your question is false. In general, remember that odd crosses and even touches/turns/kisses.
We can’t see the tables unless you upload a picture :)
8 = 8v - 4 (v + 8)
Distribute the 4 through the parentheses
8 = 8v - 4v - 32
combine like terms
8 = 4v - 32
add 32 to both sides
8 + 32 = 4v -32 + 32
combine like terms
40 = 4v
divide each side by 4
40/10 = v
4 = v
v= 4
