Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
2.4 - 1.57 = 0.83
C is the correct answer because that's the only answer where all the numbers (i.e. 3, -1, 2) all, when plugged into the function, equal 0. For example:
3³ - (4 × 3²) + 3 + 6 = 0
-1³ - (4 × (-1)²) + (-1) + 6 = 0
2³ - (4 × 2²) + 2 + 6 = 0
As we see, everything adds up to 0. So, C is the correct answer.
This is not a polynomial equation unless one of those is squared. As it stands x=-.833. If you can tell me which is squared I can help solve the polynomial.
Ok, that is usually notated as x^3 to be clear. I'll solve it now.
x^3-13x-12=0
Then use factor theorum to solve x^3-13x-12/x+1 =0
So you get one solution of x+1=0
x=-1
Then you have x^2-x-12 now you complete the square.
Take half of the x-term coefficient and square it. Add this value to both sides. In this example we have:
The x-term coefficient = −1
The half of the x-term coefficient = −1/2
After squaring we have (−1/2)2=1/4
When we add 1/4 to both sides we have:
x2−x+1/4=12+1/4
STEP 3: Simplify right side
x2−x+1/4=49/4
STEP 4: Write the perfect square on the left.
<span>(x−1/2)2=<span>49/4
</span></span>
STEP 5: Take the square root of both sides.
x−1/2=±√49/4
STEP 6: Solve for x.
<span>x=1/2±</span>√49/4
that is,
<span>x1=−3</span>
<span>x2=4</span>
<span>and the one from before </span>
<span>x=-1</span>
The answer would be 4:5 because they said basketballs first
