Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2x-1)=6(x+2)  PEDMAS

4x-2=6x+12  subtract 4x from both sides

-2=2x+12  subtract 12

-14=2x  divide by 2

x=  -7

Answer:

x = -7

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

2(2x - 1) = 6(x + 2)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                                     4x - 2 = 6x + 12
  2. Subtract 4x on both sides:          -2 = 2x + 12
  3. Subtract 12 on both sides:           -14 = 2x
  4. Divide 2 on both sides:                -7 = x
  5. Rewrite:                                         x = -7

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    2(2(-7) - 1) = 6(-7 + 2)
  2. Multiply:                        2(-14 - 1) = 6(-7 + 2)
  3. Subtract/Add:               2(-15) = 6(-5)
  4. Multiply:                        -30 = -30

Here we see that -30 does indeed equal -30.

∴ x = -7 is a solution of the equation.

Find a polynomial f(x) of degree 4 that has the following zeros.<br> 0, -5, 8, -2
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The polynomial of the function degree '4'

x⁴ - x³ -46 x² -80x =0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given zeros are 0 ,-5,8,-2

x =0 , x=-5 ,x=8 and x=-2

(x-0) , ( x+5) , (x-8) and (x+2)

The polynomial function with degree '4'

(x-0)(x-(-5)(x-8)(x-(-2) =0

x ( x+5) (x-8) (x+2) =0

(x² +5x)(x-8)(x+2) =0

(x³ -8 x²+5x² -40 x)(x+2) =0

( x³ -3 x² - 40 x) (x +2) =0

x⁴ + 2 x³ - 3 x³- 6 x²-40 x²- 80 x =0

x⁴ - x³ -46 x² -80x =0

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The polynomial of the function degree '4'

x⁴ - x³ -46 x² -80x =0
