Factor the equation. (u + 2)(u – 1) = 0(u + 1)(u – 2) = 0(u – 2)(u – 1) = 0
Factor the equation. ✔ (u + 2)(u – 1) = 0(u + 1)(u – 2) = 0(u – 2)(u – 1) = 0
What are the solutions of the original equation?x = 1 or x = –2x = –1 or x = 2x = –5 or x = –2x = 4 or x = –5
What are the solutions of the original equation?x = 1 or x = –2x = –1 or x = 2✔ x = –5 or x = –2x = 4 or x = –5
Is the equation x9 – 5x3 + 6 = 0 quadratic in form? Explain why or why not.
No. It is not quadratic in form because (x³)² = x⁶, not x⁹, so the variable part of the first term is not the square of the variable part of the second term.
