Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0 ....subtract 12 from both sides
3x^2 - 7x = -12 ....divide both sides by 3 to get x^2 by itself
x^2 - 7/3x = -4
His work is not accurate because he divided the second term by 4 instead of 3.
-2x + 5 = -1
subtract 5 from both sides: -2x = -6
divide each side by -2: x = 3
plug in 3: 5(3)
multiply: 15
the value of 5x is 15.
