Solve for x (2x-3/3-7x-2=x/3) |
|
Answer» Step-by-step explanation: Given cubic equation is 2x +7x +2x−3=0 From observation, we get −1 is one ROOT as 2(−1) 3 +7(−1) 2 +2(−1)−3=−2+7−2−3=0 Therefore, on dividing the given equation by (x+1) from synthetic division, we get 2x 3 +7x 2 +2x−3 ⇒(x+1)(2x 2 +5x−3)=0 ⇒(x+1)(x+3)(x− 2 1
)=0 ⇒x=−1,−3, 2 1
