Answer:

x = -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve for the value of x in the expression 2/3 (3x+2)=1x

we have

2(3x +2) /3 = x

6x + 4 /3 = x

using cross multiply technique

6x + 4 = 3 × x

6x + 4 = 3x

collect the like terms

6x -3x = -4

3x = -4

divide both sides by the coefficient of x

3x/3 = -4/3

x = -4/3

Use the quadratic formula to solve. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.<br> 2x^2 -3x -7 = 0

abruzzese [7]

The quadratic formula is:

$\frac{-b + \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ and $\frac{-b - \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$

In this case, a = 2, b = -3, and c = -7

So, we can plug in the numbers to get:

$\frac{-(-3) + \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4(2)(-7)} }{2(2)}$ and $\frac{-(-3) - \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4(2)(-7)} }{2(2)}$

Simplifying, we get:

$\frac{3 + \sqrt{65} }{4}$ and $\frac{3 - \sqrt{65} }{4}$

You need to use a calculator to find what these would be in decimal form. The answer, rounded to the nearest tenth, is: x = 2.8, x = -1.3

2 m - polyester fabric: 4, cotton fabric: 14

6 m - polyester fabric: 12, cotton fabric: 42

8 m - polyester fabric: 16, cotton fabric: 56

9 m - polyester fabric: 18, cotton fabric: 63

check:

2 m: 4/14=2/7

6 m: 12/42=2/7

8 m: 16/56=2/7
