Answer:
x = -4, 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic can be solved may ways, including graphing, factoring, and the quadratic formula. You can also check possible answers by making use of the relationships between solutions and the coefficients.
__
A graph is attached. It shows the solutions to be -4 and 5/2.
__
When factored, the equation becomes ...
(2x -5)(x +4) = 0 . . . . . has solutions x=-4, x=5/2 (these make the factors zero)
__
Using the quadratic formula, the solutions of ax^2 +bx +c = 0 are found from ...
x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)
x = (-3±√(3²-4(2)(-20))/(2(2)) = (-3±√169)/4 = {-16, +10}/4
x = {-4, 5/2}
__
For ax^2 +bx +c = 0, the solutions must satisfy ...
product of solutions is c/a = -20/2 = -10
Only the first and last choices have this product.
sum of solutions is -b/a = -3/2
Only the first choice (-4, 5/2) has this sum.
Answer:
x = 13y + 0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2x - 3y) = y + 5
8x - 12y = y + 5
8x = y + 5 + 12y
8x = 5 + 13y
8x ÷ 8 = 5 + 13y ÷ 8
x = 5 + 13y ÷ 8
x= 13y + 5 ÷8
x = 13y + 0.625
First one is 0 second is 1 third is 2 and fourth is 3 hope it helps
