What is the sum of the solutions for 6x^2 − x − 2 = 0?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The sum is 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

This factors into

Factors

(3x - 2)(2x + 1) = 0

<em><u>First root</u></em>

3x - 2 = 0

3x = 2

x = 2/3

===============

<em><u>Second Root</u></em>

2x + 1 = 0

2x = 1

2x = - 1

x = - 1/2

===============

The two roots are 2/3 and - 1/2

When you add these two together, you get

2/3 - 1/2 = 4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

The two roots add up to 1/6

netineya [11]
If you have 1/5 and 2/3, you need a common denominator to even do anything. So three and five both go into 15, so then you do 2 times 5, cause 3 times 5 is 15. And 1 times 3, cause 3 times 5 is 15. So you end up with 3/15 as produce, and 10/15 as vegetables. So, then you divide the fractions, 1/5 divided by 10/15, which is the same as 1/5 times 15/10. So your answer is 3/10 of the produce is vegetables.

Find the slope of the line that passes through (6,5) and (2,5).
aliina [53]

Slope of line passing through two points (x1,y1 ) and (x2 ,y2 ) is given by

m= y2-y1/x2 −x1

Since the line passes through (−2,5) and (6,4)

We have

Slope(m)= 4-5/6−(−2) =− 1/8
