Answer:
x = 1, -7.5
Explanation:
2x² + 13x = 15
Divide the left side of the equation by 2
2(x² + 6.5x) = 15
Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient
6.5/2 = 3.25
3.25² = 10.5625
Add 10.5625 to the left side
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15
Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.
10.5625 • 2 = 21.125
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125
To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x
b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25
2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125
Divide by 2
(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625
Square root.
(x + 3.25) = √18.0625
x + 3.25 = ±4.25
Subtract 3.25.
x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1
x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5
x = 1, -7.5
Answer: capillary action
Explanation: it occurs when the adhesion forces (attraction between two surfaces or substances) in the liquid are stronger than the cohesion forces (attraction between the same molecule)
B, the opposing forces are the same, thus, the ball doesn't move back or forward.
