Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
the x value is just plugging that number in for x so
-3x-8=10 (add 8 to both sides) so
-3x=18 (divide by -3 on both sides) so
x=-6
Answer:
False
Take water heating up for example. Heat travels just from...heat!

The correct answer should be x = 7 or x = -1
Hello there!
This is a conceptual question about quadratic functions.
Remember that a solution of ANY function is where it intersects the x-axis, so if the quadratic function intersects the x-axis TWO times, this means that there are TWO real solutions.
Here's a list of things to remember that will help you out for quadratic functions...
•if a quadratic function intersects the x-axis twice, it has two real solutions.
•if a quadratic function intersects the x-axis once, it has one real solution and one imaginary solution.
•if a quadratic function intersects the x-axis zero times, it has zero deal solutions and two imaginary solutions.
Please NOTE: If you want to know how many solutions a polynomial function has, look at it's highest exponent. If it is 2, then it has 2 solutions whether they be real or imaginary. If it is 3, then it has 3 solutions.
Also, if one of the factors are the same for a polynomial function, the way it hits the x-axis changes! This is just some extra information to help you in the long run!
I hope this helps!
Best wishes :)
To start off, you can divide the right side of the equation by x to get rid of most of the x's so you get the polynomial x^4 - 10x^2 + 9. This means that f(x) = x^4 - 10x^2 + 9x. By factoring the right side of the equation, you get f(x) = (x^2 - 1)(x^2 - 9). I think the minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 3.
