Question

so steps using zero property solve this equation pls: y^3=-22y^2-40y

Answer 1

First step is to move everything to the left side of your equation. What would you get?

Answer 2

You can do this by adding +22y^2 +40y to both sides.

Answer 3

if i subtract y^3
i get 0=-23y-40y right

Answer 4

You would subtract y^3 from both sides then, but it's easier to make everything positive than keep it negative.

Answer 5

so what i get after subtract y^3

Answer 6

-y^3 + y^3 = -y^3 -22y^2 -40y

What would this simplify to?

Answer 7

but y^3 is not a square root how do i solve for y?

Answer 8

Follow me on this. It'll make sense one we work it step by step. Did you simplify the expression i presented in my last post?

Answer 9

simply ?

Answer 10

so i devided by y

Answer 11

?

Answer 12

dividing by y will not help us.
