Section 2.3
Question 58
Since x = 2/3, (x - 2/3) is a factor of the given polynomial.
Using synthetic division, I got the following resulting coefficients: 48, -48, 9 with remainder 0.
This leads to 48x^2 - 48x + 9.
Factoring 48x^2 - 48x + 9, I got the following three factors: 3(3x - 1)(4x - 3).
The real solutions are: x = 1/4, x = 3/4.
You say?
