Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we make our equation. Half the books so 1/2 and then 1/3 and 4. So first off they are all postive ( we cant have negative books) and to make the equation we need to find how many books are all together. So 1/2+1/3+4. First combine like terms 1/2+1/3=3/4 then add 3/4 to 4 which is the same as 3/4+4/1= 4 3/4.

<em>Let's solve your equation step-by-step.</em>

Solve the following quadratic equation:
Advocard [28]

Answer:

-3.5 or -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2+19x+40=-2

2x^2+19x+40+2=0

2x^2+19x+42=0

2x^2+(12+7)x+42=0

2x^2+12x+7x+42=0

2x(x+6)+7(x+6)=0

(x+6)(2x+7)=0

either,

x+6=0

x=-6

or,

2x+7=0

2x=-7

x=-7/2

x=-3.5
