-15-5= -20
Thus, -2x^2 = -20
Then -20/-2= 10
So, x^2 = 10
When you square root both of them, the answer is root 10

Houw would i factor this problem out completely?

kvasek [131]

You can factor out a 3t first, resulting in:
$3t(2t^2+3t-5)$

Now, let's factor the equation in the middle using the quadratic equation. Plug in the values to the quadratic equation:
$\frac{-3\pm \sqrt{3^2-4(2)(-5)}}{2(2)} = -\frac{3\pm \sqrt{49}}{4} = -\frac{3\pm 7}{4}$

Simplify, you get your x's:
$x = 1, -\frac{5}{2}$

To write the equation in simplified form, you just write it this way:
$3t(x-1)(2x+5)$

That's your answer ^

Jackie is reading a 252 page novel for her summer reading project. On Monday she reads 4/8 of the novel. On Tuesday she reads 28

natima [27]

So far, Jackie has read 217 pages

In order to determine the total number of pages Jackie read, we would have to determine the number of pages she read each day and add these pages together

Number of pages she read on Monday = $\frac{4}{8}$ x 252 = 126 pages
Number of pages she read on Tuesday = 28 pages
Number of pages she read on Wednesday = $\frac{1}{4}$ x 252 = 63 pages
