Answer:

x= 2

x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving as normal quadratic equation:</u>

  • 2x^2+2x=12
  • x^2 +x = 6
  • x^2 + x - 6= 0
  • x = (-1 ± √(1+4*1*6)/2
  • x = ( - 1 ± √25)/2
  • x = (-1 ± 5)/2
  • x= 2
  • x= -3

<u>Roots are</u> 2 and -3

Answer:

<h3>x = - 3 or x = 2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² + 2x - 12 = 0

Divide all the terms by 2 to simplify the terms

That's

x² + x - 6 = 0

<u>Write x as a difference</u>

That's

x² + 3x - 2x - 6 = 0

<u>Factor x out of the equation</u>

That's

x( x + 3) - 2x - 6 = 0

<u>Factor out - 2 from the expression</u>

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

<u>Factor out x + 3 from the expression</u>

That's

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

<h3>x + 3 = 0 x - 2 = 0</h3>

<h3>x = - 3 x = 2</h3>

Hope this helps you

Solve each equation. Show all your work. Round your answers to four decimal places. (a) 7^4x=10,(b)ln(2)+In(4x-1)=5
KengaRu [80]
A.) 7^4x = 10
log base 10 (7^4X) = log base 10 (10)
4x log base 10 (7) = 1
4x (0.8451) = 1
3.3804x = 1
x = 0.2958

b.) ln(2) + ln(4x-1) = 5
ln (2 * 4x-1) = 5
ln (8x-2) = 5
log base (3) (8x-2) = 5
e^5 = 8x-2
e^5+2 = 8x
x = 18.8016
