Algebra.Com's Answer #207252 by Grinnell(63)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! In factoring we break the polynomial down and then 'hit or miss'\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x^2-10x+3=0\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(3x-?)(x-??) = 0\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "we know that product of (?) and (??) equals positive three. (-something times -something=positive something!)\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "how about for starters one and three?\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "let 1=?, let 3 =??, substitute--this works. THE OTHER ROOT IS THREE WHICH IS THE ANSWER!\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(understand for the first root 3x-1 = 0, yes x equals 1/3.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We solved for the other. \n" ); document.write( " |
