Take out 3x^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i have x-0,3,-3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is this correct?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[3x^2(x^2+9)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You have to use the quadratic equation on x^2+9

You will get an imaginary solution.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no you dont either
OpenStudy (luigi0210):
@dabeezy remember what we did earlier with the i?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
um, i have x=0,3,-3
is this correct?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup

do you homework, thank you but luigio is going help me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{ 2a }\]
OpenStudy (luigi0210):
You have to use the quad formula, unless you know how to solve without it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
dude, its not necessary
OpenStudy (anonymous):
um, i have x=0,3,-3

0 is right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
by factoring
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Let me just ask.
Is the problem
3x^4+27x^2
or
3x^4-27x^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
luigio, is it necessary to check answer aftr solving by factoring?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
also its immpossible to use quadratic exuation, its not in ax^2+bx+c+0 form its to the fourth exponent, not squared.....quadratic equation is used when ax^2+bx+c+0 not ax^4+bx+c+0

no neither,
its 3x^4=27x^2 solving a polynomial equation using factoring
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I was actually talking about this part.
x^2+9
I got that by factoring out 3x^2
The full equation is
3x^2(x^2+9)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
move all non zero numbers to righ to obtain zero on opposing side
OpenStudy (luigi0210):
Oh I see
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You CAN use the quadratic equation on x^2+9

its minus 9
OpenStudy (luigi0210):
Your answer is correct then, you just had us confused because of that positive
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh, ok.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because it was + 27, but when u take to other side of equation it becomes negative
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but i have 3 seperate answers, is it necessart to check the solutions ?

Tell us how you got that answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in some cases will the solutions be false when plugging back in?
