Question 344326: Hi,
How do you solve: x^3 - 2x^2 + 9x - 18 = 0
the teacher has given us one solution, 3i/square root of -9.
i need two other solutions and am not sure how to obtain them.
i have tried rational root theorem/ long division but do not know how to do it with square roots and imaginary numbers.
thanks

Question 344497: Applications
We can determine the time it would take an object to fall (if there were no air resistance) by using the formula t=1/4√d where d is the distance
A. how long does it take a quarter dropped from a 35foot roof to reach the ground?
B. If there are 5280 feet in one mile, how long would it take an object to fall 1-1/2 miles?
C. If it takes an object 5.9 seconds to fall d feet, how tall is the object?
I tried sloving with a graphic calculator but I am not certain on how to show work. Please help

Question 344740: Hello,
I am in Geometry, and we are required to use algebra to solve for angles and measures. But I've stumbled upon something I have forgotten in algebra. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Here's the problem:
9x^2 + x - 1 = x^2 + x + 7
I have already managed to do this:
9x^2 + x - 1 = x^2 + x + 7
8x^2 + x - 1 = x + 7
8x^2 - 1 = 7
8x^2 = 8
*This is where I get stuck.
How do I get rid of the x squared so all i'm left with is the value of x?

Question 344858: If a projectile is launched with an initial velocity of v0 feet per second from an initial height of s0 feet, then its height s(t)in feet is determined by the quadratic function s(t)=-16t^2+v0^t+s0 where t is the time in seconds. When you graph the function you will have the parabolic shape where the maximum point is called the vertex. If a ball is tossed upward with velocity 64 feet per second from a height of 5 feet, the function to represent the height at any time t is given with the equation s(t)=-16t^+64t+5
