The equations which are sums of perfect cubes are as follows;

$\rm 8x^6+27x^9+1$

$\rm x^6+x^3$

$\rm 27x^9+x^{12}$

<h3>Perfect cubes;</h3>

Perfect cubes are the numbers that are the triple product of the same number.

We have to determine

Which are sums of perfect cubes?

1. The given equation is $\rm 8x^6+27x^9+1$ .

The equation can be written as;

$\rm 8x^6+27x^9+1\\\\2^3(x^2)^3+3^3(x^3)^3+1^3$

All the terms in the expression are can be represented as perfect cubes.

2. The given equation is $\rm 81x^3+16x^6$ .

The equation can be written as;

$\rm 81x^3+16x^6\\\\9^2x^3+4^2(x^2)3$

In this, all the terms are not perfect cubes, some of them are squares.

3. The given equation is $\rm x^6+x^3$ .

The equation can be written as;

$\rm x^6+x^3\\\\(x^2)^3+x^3$

All the terms in the expression are perfect cubes.

4. The given equation is $\rm 27x^9+x^{12}$ .

The equation can be written as;

$\rm 27x^9+x^{12}\\\\3^3(x^3)^3+(x^4)^3$

All the terms in the expression are perfect cubes.

5. The given equation is $\rm 9x^3+27x^9$ .

The equation can be written as;

$\rm 9x^3+27x^9\\\\3^2x^3+3^3(x^3)^3$

In this, all the terms are not perfect cubes, some of them are squares too.

What are the zeros of the function f(x) = (3x^2 + 9x + 6) / (3x - 6) ?

cricket20 [7]

3x^2 + 9x + 6 = 0
3x^2 + 3x + 6x + 6 = 0
3x(x + 1) + 6(x + 1) = 0
(3x + 6)(x + 1) = 0
3x + 6 = 0 and x + 1 = 0
3x = -6 and x = -1
x = -2 and x = -1
