2.√3x + 7 + √x + 1 =2​

taurus [48]3 years ago

Answer:

  x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The usual approach to these is to square the radicals until they are gone.

  \displaystyle\sqrt{3x+7}+\sqrt{x+1}=2\\\\(3x+7) +2\sqrt{(3x+7)(x+1)}+(x+1) = 4\qquad\text{square both sides}\\\\2\sqrt{(3x+7)(x+1)}=-4x-4\qquad\text{subtract $4x+8$}\\\\(3x+7)(x+1)=(-2x-2)^2\qquad\text{divide by 2, square again}\\\\3x^2+10x +7=4x^2+8x+4\qquad\text{simplify}\\\\x^2-2x-3=0\qquad\text{subtract the left expression}\\\\(x-3)(x+1)=0\qquad\text{factor}\\\\x=3,\ x=-1\qquad\text{solutions to the quadratic}

Each time the equation is squared, the possibility of an extraneous root is introduced. Here, x=3 is extraneous: it does not satisfy the original equation.

The solution is x = -1.

_____

Using a graphing calculator to solve the original equation can avoid extraneous solutions. The attachment shows only the solution x = -1. Rather than use f(x) = 2, we have rewritten the equation to f(x)-2 = 0. The graphing calculator is really good at showing the function values at the x-intercepts.

PLEASE HELP
notsponge [240]

Answer:

(a)

x cubed is

=x^3=x3

5 times the cube of x is

=5x^3=5x3

4 times x is

=4x=4x

the quotient of 4 times x and 3 is

=\frac{4x}{3}=34x

so,

the difference of 5 times the cube of x cubed and the quotient of 4 times x and 3 is

=5x^3-\frac{4x}{3}=5x3−34x ..........Answer

(b)

5 times cube of x is

=5x^3=5x3

5 times cube of x divided by 4 times x is

=\frac{5x^3}{4x}=4x5x3 ..........Answer

(c)

difference of 5 times x cube and 4 is

=5x^3 -4=5x3−4

so,

the quotient of the difference of 5 times x cube and 4 and x is

=\frac{5x^3-4}{x}=x5x3−4 ...........Answer

(d)

difference of 5 times x and 4 is

=5x-4=5x−4

so,

the cube of the difference of 5 times x and 4 is is

=(5x-4)^3=(5x−4)3 ............Answer
