Algebra.Com's Answer #556583 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! An alternative easier proof is to plug x = 2 into the equation and evaluate.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=-x^3+7x^2-55x+90\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=-(2)^3+7(2)^2-55(2)+90\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=0\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since we get a result of y = 0, this means that x = 2 is indeed a root or zero of y=-x^3+7x^2-55x+90\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let me know if you need more help or if you need me to explain a step in more detail. \n" ); document.write( "Feel free to email me at jim_thompson5910@hotmail.com \n" ); document.write( "or you can visit my website here: http://www.freewebs.com/jimthompson5910/home.html\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thanks,\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Jim \n" ); document.write( " |
