Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step in solving the equation is to cube both sides:
(∛x)³ = (-4)³ . . . . . = (-4)(-4)(-4) = 16(-4) = -64
x = -64 . . . . . simplified

We're not sure what "checking" is supposed to involve here. Usually, one would check the answer by seeing if a true statement is made when the answer is put into the original equation.
∛(-64) = -4 . . . true
Many calculators will not compute √(-64) because they compute roots using logarithms. The log of a negative number is not defined.
So, the way one would check this is to cube both sides, which is how we got the answer in the first place. We expect the same result from doing the same operation again, so it isn't really a check.
Answer:
Tia cut a 4-meter 8-centimeter wire into 10 equal pieces. for Jay 10 quarts would be the answer. Step-by-step explanation: He needs x quarts for the inside painting and x + 19 quarts for the outside. These two measures add up to 2x + 19, which equals 107 (quarts) total. The last one is tring A is 35 cm long, string B is 5 times as long as string A, then string B is 35·5=175 cm long. In total both strings have length 35+175=210 cm. The total length of string needed for 17 identical decirative bottes is cm that is 35.7 m.
Answer:
(x - 1)( x - 2) (x + 2) = x³ -x² -4x + 4.
Explanation:
1) Given equation:
3 5x x + 2
- ------- + -------- = ---------------
x + 2 x - 1 x² - 3x + 2
2) So, the denominators are x + 2, x - 1, and x² - 3x + 2
3) The LCD is the product of the common and non common factors raised to the greatest power.
4) x + 2, and x - 1 are already prime factors
5) Factor x² - 3x + 2
x² - 3x + 2 = (x - 2)(x - 1)
6) Then, the factors are x + 2, x - 1, and x - 2, and the LCD is the product of them:
(x - 1)( x - 2) (x + 2)
7) If you expand the products (distributive property) you get:
x³ -x² -4x + 4.
Answer:
B = 70
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees
A + B + C = 180
40 + 2x-30 + x+20 = 180
Combine like terms
3x + 30 = 180
Subtract 30 from each side
3x+30-30 = 180-30
3x = 150
Divide by 3
3x/3 =150/3
x = 50
We want to find angle B
B = 2x-30
=2(50) - 30
= 100 - 30
= 70
Answer:
n = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that
256 = 
, thus
=
Since the bases on both sides are equal (2) equate the exponents
n - 1 = 8 ( add 1 to both sides )
n = 9
