-3x + 6 = 2x - 24.
Add 3x to both sides.
6 = 5x - 24.
Add 24 to both sides.
30 = 5x.
Divide it all by 5.
<em><u>x = 6.</u></em>
Answer:
a=1 or a=5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to attempt to factor 6a^2-a-5
a=6
b=-1
c=-5
Find two numbers that multiply to be a*c and add to be b.
a*c=-30 =-6(5)
b=-1 =-6+5
So replace -a with -6a+5a in the expression we started with
6a^2-6a+5a-5
now we factor by grouping
6a(a-1)+5(a-1)
(a-1)(6a-5)
Now let's solve the equation:
(a-1)(6a-5)=0
So a=1 or a=5/6
