4x² + 2x - 30 = 0
<span>
factor out the GCF:
</span>2(2x² + x - 15) = 0
<span>
factor the trinomial completely:
2x</span>² + x - 15 = 0
2x² + 6x - 5x - 15 = 0
2x(x + 3) - 5(x + 3) = 0
(2x - 5)(x + 3) = 0
<span>use the zero product property and set each factor equal to zero and solve:
2x - 5 = 0 or x + 3 = 0
2x = 5 x = -3
x = 2.5
</span><span>The roots of the function are x=-3, x=2.5</span>

Answer:
∠A = 44°
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the measure of angle A, you need to know the value of the variable x. This means you need some relation that you can solve to find x.
Happily, that relation is "the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°." This means ...
84° +(x +59)° +(x +51)° = 180°
(2x + 194)° = 180° . . . collect terms
2x = -14 . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, and subtract 194
x = -7 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 2
Now, the measure of angle A is ...
∠A = (x +51)° = (-7 +51)°
∠A = 44°
2x²+x-6=0
(2x-3)(x+2)=0
x=3/2 or -2

Answer:
x = tex]5\frac{\textup{7}}{\textup{8}}\ in[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total height of the bench = 18 in
Depth of the stone bench = 
= 
= 3.375 in
Measure of stones = 
= 
= 3.5 in
measure of another stone = 
= 
= 5.25 in
let the height of the third stone be 'x'
Now,
The total height of the bench = depth of bench + Measure of two stones + x
18 = 3.375 + 3.5 + 5.25 + x
or
x = 18 - 12.125
or
x = 5.875 in
or
x = tex]5\frac{\textup{7}}{\textup{8}}\ in[/tex]
