Among all choices we have 5, so
x = 5
x - 5 = 0
Let's divide the expression by (x - 5) using the long division:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40
(x - 5) * x² = x³ - 5x² Subtract
____________________________
-6x² + 38x - 40
(x - 5) * (-6x) = -6x² + 30x Subtract
____________________________
8x - 40
(x - 5) * 8 = 8x - 40 Sutract
____________________________
0
Thus: x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = (x - 5)(x² - 6x + 8)
Now, let's simplify x² - 6x + 8.
x² - 6x + 8 = x² - 2x - 4x + 8 =
= x² - 2*x - (4*x - 4*2) =
= x(x - 2) - 4(x - 2) =
= (x - 4)(x - 2)
Hence:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = (x - 5)(x - 4)(x - 2)
To calculate zero:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = 0
(x - 5)(x - 4)(x - 2) = 0
x - 5 = 0 or x - 4 = 0 or x - 2 = 0
x = 5 or x = 4 or x = 2
Answer:
x = 2 + 3.5y
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer in fraction form: -17/4 < x < 11/4
Answer in decimal form: -4.25 < x < 2.75
=======================================================
Work Shown:
|4x+3| - 9 < 5
|4x+3| < 5+9 .... adding 9 to both sides
|4x+3| < 14
-14 < 4x+3 < 14 .... see note at the bottom
-14-3 < 4x < 14-3 .... subtracting 3 from all sides
-17 < 4x < 11
-17/4 < x < 11/4 .... divide all sides by 4
-4.25 < x < 2.75
This says that x is between -4.25 and 2.75, but x is not equal to either endpoint.
Note: I used the rule that |x| < k becomes -k < x < k where k is a positive real number.
