Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 17 = 4(3x - 1)

Distribute on the right side.

5x + 17 = 12x - 4

Subtract 12x from both sides. Subtract 17 from both sides.

-7x = -21

Divide both sides by -7.

x = 3

Answer:

3 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 17 = 4(3x - 1)

Distribute

5x+17 = 12x -4

Subtract 5x from each side

5x+17-5x = 12x-4-5x

17 = 7x-4

Add 4 to each side

17+4 = 7x-4+4

21 = 7x

Divide by 7

21/7 = 7x/7

3 =x

6. What are the zeroes for the<br>function<br>f(x) = 2x3 + 12x – 10x2?<br>​
agasfer [191]

Answer:

<h2>x = 0, x = 5 + √13 and x = 5 - √13.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x^3 + 12x – 10x^2 can and should be rewritten in descending powers of x:  

f(x) = 2x^3 – 10x^2 + 12x

This, in turn, can be factored into f(x) = x·(x² - 10x + 12).

Setting this last result = to 0 results in f(x) = x·(x² - 10x + 12).

Thus, x = 0 is one root.  Two more roots come from x² - 10x + 12 = 0.

Let's "complete the square" to solve this equation.

Rewrite x² - 10x + 12 = 0  as  x² - 10x +              12 = 0.

a) Identify the coefficient of the x term.  It is -10.

b) take half of this result:  -5

c) square this last result:  (-5)² = 25.

d) Add this 25 to both sides of x² - 10x +              12 = 0:

     x² - 10x +  25      +      12 = 0 + 25

e) rewrite x² - 10x +  25 as the square of a binomial:

       (x - 5)² = 13

f)  taking the sqrt of both sides:  x - 5 = ±√13

g) write out the zeros:  x = 5 + √13 and x = 5 - √13.

The three roots are x = 0, x = 5 + √13 and x = 5 - √13.

GCSE maths question about the turning point of the graph.<br> please help!
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The coordinates of the turning point are (2, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the turning points of the quadratic equation

y = ax² + bx + c, are (h, k), where

  • h = \frac{-b}{2a}
  • k is the value of y at x = h

∵ The equation of the curve is y = x² + bx + c

→ By comparing it with the form above

∴ a = 1

∵ The point (0, -5) lies on the curve

→ Substitute x by 0 and y by -5 in the equation to find the value f c

∵ -5 = (0)² + b(0) + c

∴ -5 = 0 + 0 + c

∴ -5 = c

→ Substitute it in the equatin

∴ y = x² + bx - 5

∵ The point (5, 0) lies on the curve

→ Substitute x by 5 and y by 0 in the equation to find the value f c

∵ 0 = (5)² + b(5) - 5

∴ 0 = 25 + 5b - 5

→ Add the like terms in the right side

∴ 0 = 20 + 5b

→ Subtract 5b from bth sides

∵ 0 - 5b = 20 + 5b - 5b

∴ -5b = 20

→ Divide both sides by -5 to find b

∴ b = -4

→ Substitute it in the equatin

∴ y = x² - 4x - 5

∵ a = 1 and b = -4

→ Substitute them in the rule of h above t find it

∵ h = \frac{-(-4)}{2(1)} = \frac{4}{2}

∴ h = 2

→ To find k, substitute x by 2 and y by k

∵ k = (2)² - 4(2) - 5

∴ k = 4 - 8 - 5

∴ k = -9

∴ The cordinates of the turning point are (2, -9)
