Question

5. Solve for x using any method you'd like. Round to the hundredth. Show all your work. (2 points each) d. 20x^3 = 7x^5

Answer 1

Solving this equation for x, we have:

`\begin{gathered} 20x^3=7x^5 \\ 7x^5-20x^3=0 \\ x^3(7x^2-20)=0 \\ \begin{cases}x^3=0\to x=0 \\ 7x^2=20\to x=\pm\sqrt[]{(20)/(7)}\end{cases} \end{gathered}`
