If you would like to solve the equation - 2/5 * x + 6 = 8, you can do this using the following steps:

- 2/5 * x + 6 = 8
- 2/5 * x = 8 - 6
- 2/5 * x = 2    /*(-5/2)
x = 2 * (- 5/2)
x = - 5

The correct result would be -5.

- \frac{2}{5} x+6=8
Common denominator is 5
\frac{(-2)x}{5} +6=8

5( \frac{(-2)x}{5} +6)=5*8
Distributhing 5 through parentheses
\frac{ \not5(-2)x}{ \not5} +5*6=5*8
(-2)x+5*6=5*8
(-2)x+30=5*8
-2x+30=40
-2x=40-30
-2x=10   /: -2
x=-5
The answer is: x=-5

Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation (x 2) (x 3) = 12.

<h3>What is Quadratic Equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is an algebraic equation of the second degree in x. The quadratic equation in its standard form is ax² + bx + c = 0, where a and b are the coefficients, x is the variable, and c is the constant term.

Here, given equation:

  (x+2)(x+3) = 12

 x(x+3)+2(x+3) = 12

 x² + 3x + 2x + 6 = 12

 x² + 5x + 6 - 12 = 0

 x² + 5x - 6 = 0

 x² + 6x - x - 6 = 0

 x(x+6) -1(x+6) = 0

 (x+6)(x-1) = 0

Now, x + 6 = 0      or      x - 1 = 0

        x = -6           or      x = 1

Thus, the solution of the given equation is -6 and 1.

Nate is exponentially gaining Twitter followers! His current amount of followers is 146. His followers are increasing at a 24% r
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

(a) Growth

(b)\ y = 146(1.24)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a= 146 -- current

r = 24\% --- rate

Solving (a): Growth or decay

The question says his followers increases each day by 24%.

Increment means growth.

<em />

<em>Hence, it is a growth problem</em>

Solving (b): Equation to represent the scenario.

Since the rate represents growth, the equation is:

y = a(1 + r)^x

Substitute: a= 146 and r = 24\%

y = 146 * (1 + 24\%)^x

y = 146 * (1 + 0.24)^x

y = 146 * (1.24)^x

y = 146(1.24)^x

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sharon is conducting research on two species of birds at a bird sanctuary.

The number of birds of species A is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

S=2^x+12

The number of birds of species B is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

S=15x+35

To plot the above function, first find points by which they are passing.

For species A, At x=0 , S=1+12=13

At x=2 , S=2+12=14

Similarly find more points and plot curve on graph.

For species A, At x=0 , S=0+35=35

At x=2 , S=15+35=50

Plot a line with the help of these two points.

Now, from the graph the intersection of curve (for A) and line (for B) is at (7,140) which tells that After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.
