I'm guessing your problem is this:
y³ - 9y² + y - 9 = 0
right?
In solving this problem, I recommend doing this:
y³ - 9y² + y - 9 = 0
Factor out a y² from the first two numbers in the problem:
y²(y - 9) + (y - 9) = 0
Separate the parentheses which means y - 9 goes on one side. The y² added a one since it came from the + 1 in the middle of expression. When you're separating parentheses like this you just take the outside numbers and combine them together. Since + 1 came from the outside of the (y - 9) and y² also was sitting on the outside of (y - 9) combine them to make y² + 1. Like this:
(y² + 1)(y - 9) = 0
Now separate your two parentheses to two separate problems:
(y² + 1) = 0 and (y - 9) = 0
Now you're y² + 1 will equal:
y² = -1
y = √-1 <-- This number doesn't exist so it will be an imaginary number (i). If you guys didn't learn that in your class I recommend just leaving it as i for that part.
Now solve y - 9 = 0:
y = 9 <-- Since we added nine to both sides to get this.
So you're final answer should be y = i and 9
Answer:
217miles is how far he travels
Step-by-step explanation:
I did 62mph * 3 1/2 and got 217.
I'm unsure if this is correct but I tried my best in solving this!
The best batch size is 1053.
Since 5% have failed, this means 95% have passed the test.
95% = 95/100 = 0.95
We can set up an equation to answer this:
0.95x = 1000
Divide both sides by 0.95:
0.95x/0.95 = 1000/0.95
x = 1052.6 ≈ 1053
