1.determine K if -3 is root of 2x^2+k x+9=0

2.solve for B. A= 3B/KB+D

I tried looking on various websites but they're confusing.

Please help and explain your steps! Thanks.

1. if x= -3 2 x (-3)^2 -3k + 9 = 0

18 -3k + 9 = 0

3k = 27

k = 9

2. A = 3B/KB + D

A - D = 3/K the B's can be cancelled

K(A-D) = 3

if K is 9 again

9(A-D) = 3
A-D = 3/9
or 1/3

If -3 is a root, then
2(-3)^2 +k(-3) +9 = 0
-3k = -27
k = 9

A= 3B/(KB+D) <-- You must mean this, else it makes no sense as the B's would cancel out.
A(KB+D)= 3B
AKB +AD = 3B
AD = 3B -AKB
AD = B(3-AK)
AD/(3-AK) = B

A= 3B/KB+D

B can be any number as they cancel out. Are u sure u got the qn right?

1) square the whole equation first
9= 2x^2 +kx +9
move the 9 over
2x^2 +kx= 0
factorise
x(2x +k)=0
k= -2x
