Answer:
Ok I look now what
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -1,5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² - 8x - 10
2x² - 10x + 2x - 10
2x(x - 5) + 2(x - 5)
(x - 5)(2x + 2)
x = 5 x = -2/2
x = -1,5
Answer:
if a varible is by itself with no key it would mean a 1 but this would most likely mean multiplication although there is no parenthesies my awnser would be 6!
Step-by-step explanation:
but that would be the same as the question.
Here is one way to solve for x.
Step 1) 2x^2-7=9
Step 2) 2x^2-7+7=9+7
Step 3) 2x^2=16
Step 4) (2x^2)/2=16/2
Step 5) x^2=8
Step 6) sqrt(x^2)=sqrt(8)
Step 7) |x|=sqrt(8)
Step 8) x=sqrt(8) or x=-sqrt(8)
-------------------------------------
Below are explanations/reasons to each of the steps above.
Step 1) Original equation
Step 2) Add 7 to both sides
Step 3) Combine like terms
Step 4) Divide both sides by 2
Step 5) Simplify
Step 6) Apply the square root to both sides. The notation "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
Step 7) Use the rule that sqrt(x^2) = |x| for all real numbers x
Step 8) Use the rule that if |x| = k then x = k or x = -k for some fixed number k.
-------------------------------------
The two solutions are
x = sqrt(8) or x = -sqrt(8)
(-1,-9) because if we substituted 1 into x y would be 9 and if we substituted 1/2 into x y would be 3 but if we substituted -1 into x y would be 1/9 so therefore that value is incorrect
