15x²+16x+4 =0      (ax² +bx +c=0)

Δ = b²-4ac =256 - 4×15×4 =16

x1 = (-b+√Δ) / 2a = (-16+√16) / 30 =( -16+4) / 30 = -12/30 = - 2/5
x2 = (-b -√Δ) / 2a = (-16 -√16) / 30 = (-16 -4) /30 = -20/30 = -2/3

      15x² + 16x = -4
15x² + 16x + 4 = -4 + 4
15x² + 16x + 4 = 0
x = <u>-(16) +/- √((16)² - 4(15)(4))</u>
                       2(15)
x = <u>-16 +/- √(256 - 240)</u>
                     30
x = <u>-16 +/- √(16)
</u>              30
x = <u>-16 +/- 4</u>
            30
x = <u>-8 +/- 2</u>
          15
x = <u>-8 + 2</u>  or  x = <u>-8 - 2</u>
         15                  15
x = <u>-6</u>             x = <u>-10</u>
      15                   15
x = ⁻²/₅            x = ⁻²/₃

b. -4

Step-by-step explanation:

For these problems, since we are given the x, we plug it into the expression and solve.

a.

3(4)-2                  [multiply]

12-2                     [subtract]

10

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please help!!!!!!!!!
victus00 [196]

Answer:

None of the above

Explanation:

To find the type of lines they create, first find the slope of the equations.(Change form to y intercept)

4x-2y=-5

-2y=-4x-5

y=2x+(5/2)

Slope=2

-2x+3y=-3

3y=2x-3

y=(2/3)x-1

Slope=2/3

So, one has slope=2 and the other has slope=2/3. They’re not parallel because slopes are not the same. They’re not perpendicular because the slopes are not opposites. They’re not equal because their equations are not the same. So, none of the above.
