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

QUADRATIC EQUATION â€" WORD PROBLEMS
dusya [7]

Answer: -7, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b = 5

a*b = -84

a = 5-b

(5-b)*b = -84

-b^2 + 5b + 84 = 0

(-b - 7)(b + 12) = 0

The roots are -7 and 12.

I'm not sure what â€" stands for

Find the midpoint of the line segment given the endpoints.<br><br> (-1, 10) (-1, 6)
BaLLatris [955]

The midpoint of these two points is (-1, 8).

In order to find the midpoint, you must take the average of each part of the coordinates. You do this by adding them together and dividing by 2. We'll start with the x-coordinates.

(-1 + -1)/2 = -1

Now we'll use the y-coordinates.

(10 + 6)/2 = 8

This gives us the ordered pair of (-1, 8)

Plz help!<br> Which table shows a linear function?
Nikitich [7]
The second table. A linear function is a function where adding the same amount to x should add the same amount to y.

In table 2, you can see that adding 1 to x adds 2 to y. All the other tables describe non-linear functions.
