Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 4 = 0
2x= -4
x=-2
(a) See the attached sketch. Each shell will have a radius <em>y</em> chosen from the interval [2, 4], a height of <em>x</em> = 2/<em>y</em>, and thickness ∆<em>y</em>. For infinitely many shells, we have ∆<em>y</em> converging to 0, and each super-thin shell contributes an infinitesimal volume of
2<em>π</em> (radius)² (height) = 4<em>πy</em>
Then the volume of the solid is obtained by integrating over [2, 4]:

(b) See the other attached sketch. (The text is a bit cluttered, but hopefully you'll understand what is drawn.) Each shell has a radius 9 - <em>x</em> (this is the distance between a given <em>x</em> value in the orange shaded region to the axis of revolution) and a height of 8 - <em>x</em> ³ (and this is the distance between the line <em>y</em> = 8 and the curve <em>y</em> = <em>x</em> ³). Then each shell has a volume of
2<em>π</em> (9 - <em>x</em>)² (8 - <em>x</em> ³) = 2<em>π</em> (648 - 144<em>x</em> + 8<em>x</em> ² - 81<em>x</em> ³ + 18<em>x</em> ⁴ - <em>x</em> ⁵)
so that the overall volume of the solid would be

I leave the details of integrating to you.
So focusing on x^4 + 5x^2 - 36, we will be completing the square. Firstly, what two terms have a product of -36x^4 and a sum of 5x^2? That would be 9x^2 and -4x^2. Replace 5x^2 with 9x^2 - 4x^2: 
Next, factor x^4 + 9x^2 and -4x^2 - 36 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity inside of the parentheses: 
Now you can rewrite this as
, however this is not completely factored. With (x^2 - 4), we are using the difference of squares, which is
. Applying that here, we have
. x^4 + 5x^2 - 36 is completely factored.
Next, focusing now on 2x^2 + 9x - 5, we will also be completing the square. What two terms have a product of -10x^2 and a sum of 9x? That would be 10x and -x. Replace 9x with 10x - x: 
Next, factor 2x^2 + 10x and -x - 5 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside: 
Now you can rewrite the equation as
. 2x^2 + 9x - 5 is completely factored.

Answer:
61
Step-by-step explanation:
first it goes up by 10 then 5 now 10


you can check in your calculator.
anyhow, to get the "recurring decimal to fraction", you start by setting to some variable, "x" in this case, then move the repeating part to the left of the point by multiplying it by some power of 10, and then do the equating.
