Answer:

(2a+3 ) (a-4 )=0

Step-by-step explanation:

2a^2 + 8a - 15 = 3a - 3

Subtract 3a from each side

2a^2 + 8a-3a - 15 = 3a-3a - 3

2a^2 + 5a - 15 = - 3

Add 3 to each side

2a^2 + 5a - 15+3 = 3 - 3

2a^2 -5a -12=0

(2a+3 ) (a-4 )=0 These are the factors

Answer:

$x= \frac{5^{14}+3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct steps to solve the equation are:

$14=log_5(2x-5)$

$5^{14}=5^{log_5(2x-3)}$

Because $a^{log_am}=m$

So, solving we get:

$5^{14}=2x-3$

Sum 3 on every side:

$5^{14}+3=2x-3+3\\5^{14}+3=2x$

Dividing by 2 into both sides:

$\frac{5^{14}+3}{2}=\frac{2x}{2}\\\frac{5^{14}+3}{2}=x$

So, the answer is $x= \frac{5^{14}+3}{2}$

Answer:

BC = EF = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you mean BC ≅ EF, then ...

... 3z +2 = z +6

... 2z = 4 . . . . . . . . add -2-z

... z = 2 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

BC = EF = 2+6 = 8
