Hi there
Root=0.5 means x=0.5
Plug in 0.5 for x
(b-5)0.5^2-(b-2)0.5+b=0
(b-5)0.25-(b-2)035+b=0
Simplify
0.75b-2.25=0
b=3
Hope this helps
C) the left side of the equation should be -15 + 3r after distributing.
1a= (2x+5)+3x+15
1b= (2(4)+5)+3(4)+15=40
2a= (3x+5)•(4x-3)
2b= (3(2)+5)•(4(2)-3)=55
2c= 2(x) or 2(2)
How I got 2c is the perimeter of the rectangle LMNP subtract from (2(2)+9)+(2(2)+9)=26 which in return means you subtract 30 from 26 and get 4 which is 2(2) or 2x
Answer:
is 0.75d becase the missing numbers should be the same number
Answer:
214
Step-by-step explanation:
The set up would be x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854, naturally as the numbers are consecutive. Solving for x:
x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854,
x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 854,
4x + 1 + 2 + 3 = 854,
4x + 6 = 854,
4x = 854 - 6 = 848,
x = 848/4 = 212
The third number then should be 212 + 2 = 214
