24x4 + 16x² - 8 = 8(3x4 + 2x² - 1)
= 8(x² + 1)(3x² - 1).
The 2nd factor is a square of the first one.
5
Ray Quinn finished in second place.
JLS finished second.
Since 3 x 7 = 21, then x is one factor and 21/x is the 2nd factor.
3x
The answer is, 24x
Dividing all terms by 6 gives: 9x2+24x+16 = (3x+4)(3x+4) when factored
The real equation got messed up when I posted it, the real equation is this: 2x^3 - 11x^2 + 24x - 18 divided by 2x - 3 ^ = to the 3rd and 2nd power.
8x
(3x + 2)(x + 5)
(5x - i)(5x + i) where i is the imaginary unit equivalent to the square root of negative one.
(5x - i)(5x + i) where i is the imaginary unit equivalent to the square root of negative one.
If my research is right then Catherine Parr (Henry the 8ths last wife) is my 2nd cousin 16x removed
y = -4x2 - 16x - 11you can try to factor it or use the quadratic formula:x = (-b + (b2-4ac)1/2)/(2a)x = (-b - (b2-4ac)1/2)/(2a)so...x = (16 +/- (162- (4*-4*-11))1/2)/(2*-4)x = (16 +/- (80)1/2)/-8in decimals, you have:x = (16+8.944)/-8 = -3.118x = (16-8.944)/-8 = -0.882
The 1st term is (X). The 2nd term is (4X-5). The 3rd term is (16X-25). The average of the 2nd and 3rd terms is 1/2 of their sum. Their sum is (4X-5) + (16X-25) = (20X-30). Their average is (10X-15).
