if you have already covered slopes, you could also get it that way, in fact is simpler that way.
We must graph y=x^3-9x^2+11x+21. Please, see the attached file.
Then we see were the graph cuts the x-axis, and these values of x are the real solutions of the given equation:
The real solutions of the given equation are:x = -1, 3, and 7
You multiply fractions simply by multiplying numerators and denominators with each other:
Answer:
The value of k is 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of k is found by dividing the numerator of the original ratio, 5, by the sum of the numerator and denominator of the ratio
When finding a point, P, to partition a line segment AB into the ratio a/b, we find a ratio c = a / (a + b)
According to this formula we find the value of k.
k = a/(a+b)
where a = 5
b = 3
Now plug the values in the formula:
k = 5/(5+3)
k = 5/8 ....
