Answer:

Hey there!

2x-5y=10

Add 5y on both sides to get: 2x=10+5y

Divide by 2, not 2x. This will isolate the x.

x=5+2.5y

x=2.5y+5

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x = 5 + 5y/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When you get to 2x = 10 + 5y,

you should divide both sides with 2 only instead of 2x. Because if you divide 2x on both sides, the left side would only remain 1 (since 2x/2x = 1)

2x = 10 + 5y

x = (10 + 5y) / 2

x = 10/2 + 5y/2

x = 5 + 5y/2 .( or 5 + (5/2)y)

If the polynomials p(x)=2x³ +bx² +3x-5 and q(x)= x³+x² -4x-b leave the same remainder, when divided by x-2, prove that b = -13/5

Tju [1.3M]

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets first find the remainder when p(x) is divided by x-2

p(2)=2(2)³+b(2)²+3(2)-5

p(2)=16+4b+6-5

p(2)=4b+17

Now let's find the remainder when q(x) is divided by x-2

q(2)=(2)³+(2)²-4(2)-b

q(2)=8+4-8-b

q(2)=4-b

Now let's equate both of them

4b+17=4-b

4b+b=4-17

5b=-13

b=-13/5 as required
