MATH QUESTION

Postby cawck mongler on Thu Aug 30, 2007 3:18 pm

So whoever gets this right is the new king of the forums or something.

t^3+t^2-3t-9
---------------
t+3

Everynight my dad tells me to do this shit, and everynight he gets pissed off because I don't know how, so tell me. DONT ASK ME WHY I HAVE TO DO THIS.

The t^2 and stuff means 2 over t, and its t^3+t^2 etc. over t+3, so divide.

Disregard ^

The answer is t^2+2t-3

So am I the king of the forums or something?

t = -1, -1.44 or 1.44

The above results are when the subsequent graph line pass through the t-axis...(well, not quite the t-axis, but at y=6)

:D

Why are you people giving values? The answer is a factor.

yes I did, did you want me to give a basic factorized equation? or prefer me to give the actual value?

t=3
, it can't be -3 because you get division by zero then.

Why did you alter your results post 4 times? And I may be forgetting something (and probably am), but how do you get 3 x-values with a parabola?

t^3+t^2-3t-9=0

(t^2-3)(t+1)-6=0

(t-3^0.5)(t-3^0.5)(t+1)-6=0

solved

It isnt a parabola, it becomes muted 3 times, like all cubed equations

No, I mean the factor. Explain this to me, I've forgotten so much :oops:
Did you divide by the t+3?

(t+3)(t+3)(t-3)
----------------- = 0
t+3


Do your own math from here buddies :)


I simplified the original equation. Now you can eliminate the denominator, and you get:

(t+3)(t-3)=0

Magical isn't it?

wrong im afraid...

expand them factors, and yyou will end up with..

t^3+6t^2+18t-27

a little off there

(t+3)(t+3) = t^2+9t+9

{t^2+9t+9}(t-3) =t^3+6t^2+18t-27

From the factors, wouldn't the solution be 1, since -3 causes a division by zero scenario?

QFT! :lol:

^0.5 means squared root, btw.
