Let's say you have John, Mary, and Ben. Let's say they have ONE chewy worm left, and they want to split it, and the worm has 5 segments, Green, Yellow, Red, Blue, and Purple.

Now, it can go like this:
CATEGORY 1: UNEVENLY
Way 1:
John gets the Purple and Blue
Mary gets the Red
Ben gets the Yellow and Green

Way 2:
John gets the Purple
Mary gets the Blue, Red, and Yellow
Ben gets the Green

Catagory 2: Evenly
Way 1:
You can cut the 5 segments each into 3 even pieces, this way there are 15 total. Then divide up the 15 by giving 5 each to John, Mary, and Ben.


~Hope this helps!

How do you solve this?
Novay_Z [31]

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.


−7x=−2x2+15


Step 1: Subtract -2x^2+15 from both sides.


−7x−(−2x2+15)=−2x2+15−(−2x2+15)


2x2−7x−15=0


Step 2: Factor left side of equation.


(2x+3)(x−5)=0


Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.


2x+3=0 or x−5=0


x=  \frac{-3}{2} or x=5

Answer:


x=    \frac{-3}{2} or x=5


Hope this helps
