Answer:

-2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

first you are going to distrubute 2/5, so 2/5 times x is 2/5x and 2/5 times -2 is -4/5

next you set up the problem with those two answers which gives you:

2/5x - 4/5 = 4x

then multiply both sides of the equation by 5: 2x-4=20x

next move the constant to the right side and chnage the sign: 2x=20x+4

then combine like terms: -18x=4

after that divide both sides of the equation by -18: -2/9

so x= -2/9

Answer:

x = -2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 (x - 2) = 4x

2/5x - 4/5 = 4x

2/5x - 4x = 4/5

2/5x - 20/5x = 4/5

- 18/5x = 4/5

- x = 4/5 / 18/5

- x = 4/5 * 5/18

- x = 4/18

x = - 4/18

x = - 2/9

Juanita begins to factor an expression as shown. x2 3x−18=(x )(x−) what numbers should be placed in the boxes from left to right
Ivan

The numbers which should be placed in the boxes from left to right, when Juanita factor the expression, is 6 and 3 respectively.

<h3>What is a factor of polynomial?</h3>

The factor of a polynomial is the terms in linear form, which are, when multiplied together, give the original polynomial equation as a result.

Juanita begins to factor an expression as shown.

x^2+ 3x-18=(x+  \;\;)(x-\;\;)

To find the value of blank, we have to factor the left-hand side expression using the split the middle term method as,

x^2+ 3x-18\\x^2+ 6x-3x-18\\x(x+6)-3(x+6)\\(x+6)(x-3)

Hence, the numbers which should be placed in the boxes from left to right, when Juanita factor the expression is 6 and 3 respectively.

Helpppppppp? please thank you

The x values are the same for both green dots, so you are looking at a simplified version of the distance formula.

d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )

Since x1 = x2 = 5, the first set of brackets = (5 - 5) = 0

d = sqrt( y2 - y1)^2 )

d = y2 - y1

y2 = 5

y1 = - 1

d = 5 - - 1

d = 6    Answer

What is the solution to the system of equations? Use the substitution method. {y=−2x+53x−4y=2
klio [65]

y =  - 2x + 53x - 4y = 2 \\  y  = 51x - 4y = 2 \\  > y = 51 x - 4y \\  > 51x - 4y = 2
y = 51x - 4y \\ 5y = 51x \\ y =  \frac{51}{5} x
Substitute 51/5x into
51x - 4( \frac{51}{5} x) = 2 \\ 51x - 40.8x = 2 \\ 10.2x = 2 \\ x = 2 \times  \frac{10}{102}  \\ x =  \frac{10}{51}  \: aka \: 0.196
Substitute that into
y =  \frac{51}{5}  \times  \frac{10}{51}  \\ y = 2
Hope this helps. Answer should be correct. Unless your quadratic equation is wrongly stated.
