Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² + x - 1 = 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2x² + x - 3 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 2 × - 3 = - 6 and sum = + 1
The factors are - 2 and + 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
2x² - 2x + 3x - 3 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
2x(x - 1) + 3(x - 1) = 0 ← factor out (x - 1) from each term
(x - 1)(2x + 3) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = -
<u>ANSWER:</u>
The solution set for the inequality 7x < 7(x - 2) is null set
<u>SOLUTION:</u>
Given, inequality expression is 7x < 7 × (x – 2)
We have to give the solution set for above inequality expression in the interval notation form.
Now, let us solve the inequality expression for x.
Then, 7x < 7 × (x – 2)
7x < 7 × x – 2 × 7
7x < 7x – 14
7x – (7x – 14) < 0
7x – 7x + 14 < 0
0 + 14 < 0
14 < 0
Which is false, so there exists no solution for x which can satisfy the given equation.
So, the interval solution for given inequality will be null set
Hence, the solution set is
