Answer: x=\frac{5}{2}, x=\frac{1}{3}

Explanation:

The equation is:

(2x-5)(3x-1)=0

The term on the left consists of a product of two different factors: therefore, this product can be zero if either the first term (2x-5) or the second term (3x-1) is equal to zero.

This means that we can solve separately for the two terms:

2x-5=0\\3x-1=0

Solving the first equation:

2x-5=0\\2x=5\\x=\frac{5}{2}

Solving the second equation:

3x-1=0\\3x=1\\x=\frac{1}{3}

Answer:

\textbf{The solution of the given equation are : }\frac{5}{2}\textbf{ and }\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is given to be : (2x – 5)(3x – 1) = 0

We need to find the values of x such that the value of the equation is 0 and those corresponding values of x will be our required solution of the given equation.

Now, the product of two factors is given to be 0

⇒ Either of the two factors is equal to 0

So, first taking 2x - 5 = 0 and finding the value of x

⇒ 2x = 5

\implies\bf x=\frac{5}{2}

Now, taking the second factor equal to 0 and finding the other value of x

⇒ 3x - 1 = 0

⇒ 3x = 1

\implies\bf x = \frac{1}{3}

So, we get :

\bf x =\frac{5}{2}\textbf{ and }x=\frac{1}{3}

Hence, these two values of x are the required solution of the given equation

\textbf{Hence, the solution of the given equation are : }\frac{5}{2}\textbf{ and }\frac{1}{3}

Fudgin [204]
Hello!

The number line progresses from negative infinity (extreme left) to positive infinity (extreme right). Beginning at zero, the numbers increase in value as they move to the right and decrease in value as they move to the left.

With this knowledge, we can look at the number 17.2 (a positive number) and conclude that it is placed 17.2 units to the right of zero on the number line.

The opposite of 17.2 would be (-17.2). Again, looking at this number (a negative number), we can conclude that it is placed 17.2 units to the left of zero on the number line.

I hope this helps!

In your lab, a substance's temperature has been observed to follow the function T(x) = (x + 5)3 + 7. The turning point of the gr
OleMash [197]
So essentially, this is a cubic function where T(x) = y, and:
y =  {(x+5)}^{3} +7
In order to find the vertices, aka "turning points", we need to see around what area the graph will curve quickly from bottom-left to top-right. If the value being cubed (in the parentheses) is around -8, y will be close to 0, since -8+7=-1. (-2)^3 = -8. So x+5=-2, x=-7.
At x=-6, y = (-6+5)^3+7 = (-1)^3+7
y = -1+7 = 6
At x=-5, y = 0+7 = 7
Above x=-4, the y jumps rapidly above 10, and below x=-9, the y jumps rapidly below -50
What does all that mean???
That between x = -9 and x = -4 (x = -4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-9), the temperature (T(x) or y) does not change very much. Therefore, around those temperatures is a turning point, where the phase shift occurs from solid/liquid.
