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 = - 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between two consecutive elements is 11.
Hence
Answer:
7:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by 4
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ YXW = ∠ ZXV ( vertically opposite angles ) , so
4a + 15 = 2a + 65 ( subtract 2a from both sides )
2a + 15 = 65 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
2a = 50 ( divide both sides by 2 )
a = 25
Then
(7)
∠ ZXV = 2a + 65 = 2(25) + 65 = 50 + 65 = 115°
(8)
∠ YXW = ∠ ZXV = 115°
∠ ZXY and ∠ ZXV are adjacent angles and sum to 180° , that is
(9)
∠ ZXY = 180° - 115° = 65°
(10)
∠ VXW = ∠ ZXY = 65° ( vertically opposite angles
Step 4 is wrong. the answer is 1/8, she changed sign on 2^(-3) to 2^(3) without moving it to numerator
