42 more than half a number is the same as four times the number. What is the number?

Mathematics

1/2x + 42 = 4x
-1/2x           -1/2x
------------------------
42 = 3.5x
/3.5   /3.5
------------------------
12 = x
the number is 12


explanation: 42 more than 1/2 of a number can be written as 1/2x + 42
four times a number can be written as 4x.
42 more than 1/2 of a number is equal to 4 times a number. So 1/2x + 42 = 4x.

Hope this helps :)

6. Solve by factoring: 2x²-11x+14=0
Mariana [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve 2x^2-11x+14=0 give me 2 ways to get the 2 values of x?

The first way is to make factors by middle-term splitting. You get (x-2)(2x-7)=0, so the solution is x=2,7/2.

The other way is to use the formula for the solution of roots. Roots= (-b+ rootD)/2a, (-b-rootD)/2a, if the equation is of the form ax^2+bx+c=0. Here D is the discriminant. D=b^2-4ac

How do I solve 12x^2+11x+2=0?

Solve for x. 5x3−2x2−47x−14=0?

How can I prove that x^2+2x+2=0?

Is the sequence X^2 + 2x -2 =0?

What are the steps to solve 2^(2x)-3(2^x) +2=0?

Lets assume your equation is of the form ax^2+ bx + c =0

First method :

By breaking 'b' factor of x into two parts using factors of 'ac' ( a *c)

like 2* 14 = 28 = 7* 4 ( b is 11 which could be splitted in values 7 and 4)

equation becomes 2x^2 -4x-7x+14 = 0

take out common factors 2x(x-2) -7 (x-2) = 0

which is (2x-7) (x-2) =0 ; x =2,7/2 are two values

Second method:

make equation in the form of (x+h)^ 2 - k = 0 ; then x+h = +sqrt(k) and -sqrt(k)

which will give x as -h+sqrt(k) , +sqrt(k)

2x^2 - 11x +14 =0 wil become x^2 -11/2 x + 7 = 0

which is (x-11/4)^2 + 7- 121/16 =0

(x-11/4)^2 = (121/16) - 7 = 9/16

x- 11/4 = 3/4 and -3/4

x = 14/4 and 8/4 = 7/2 and 2

Quadrilateral PQRS is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 with point R as the center of dilation, resulting in the image P'Q'R'S'.
Pachacha [2.7K]

The statement that is true about line segment P'S' is (c) Segment P'S' s 4 units long and lies on a different segment

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The complete question is in the attached image

From the image, we have:

PS = 8 units

This means that:

P'S' = 1/2 * PS

So, we have:

P'S' = 1/2 * 8

Evaluate

P'S' = 4

Also, the segment PS and P'S' do not lie on the same segment

Hence, the true statement is (c)
