Question

3x2 < (3x)2

For what value of x is the statement above FALSE?
(A) -3 (B) 0 (C) 1/3 (D)1 (E) For no value of x

Answer 1

either solve it or just plug in the values they gave you and see if any don't work

Answer 2

3x\(^2\) = 3*x*x
(3x)\(^2\) = (3x)(3x) = 3 * 3 * x * x = 9x\(^2\)

Which do you think grows faster? :-)

Answer 3

um what

Answer 4

what does that mean

Answer 5

\[3x^2<(3x)^2=9x^2\]
\[0<9x^2-3x^2=6x^2\]

\[0<6x^2\]...what \(x\)'s make this false?
