Answer:
x = 3/2 or x = -5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the real numbers:
8 x^2 - 2 x - 15 = 0
Using the quadratic formula, solve for x.
x = (2 ± sqrt((-2)^2 - 4×8 (-15)))/(2×8) = (2 ± sqrt(4 + 480))/16 = (2 ± sqrt(484))/16:
x = (2 + sqrt(484))/16 or x = (2 - sqrt(484))/16
Simplify radicals.
sqrt(484) = sqrt(4×121) = sqrt(2^2×11^2) = 2×11 = 22:
x = (2 + 22)/16 or x = (2 - 22)/16
Evaluate (2 + 22)/16.
(2 + 22)/16 = 24/16 = 3/2:
x = 3/2 or x = (2 - 22)/16
Evaluate (2 - 22)/16.
(2 - 22)/16 = -20/16 = -5/4:
Answer: x = 3/2 or x = -5/4
Assuming f(x) is the cost and X is the number of months.
f(x)=2x+40

Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
Put 2 where x is and see if you get a true statement.
1/2(2) -4 = 5
1 -4 = 5
-3 = 5 . . . . . . False
2 is not a solution to the equation.
__
The solution is x=18.
Answer:
Solve for
n
by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
n
=
2
