How many solutions exist for the given equation? 1/2(x+12)=4x-1

QveST [7]4 years ago

Distribute 1/2 throughout the set of parenthesis

1/2 · x = 1/2x

1/2 · 12 = 6

1/2x + 6 = 4x -1

subtract 6 on both sides of the equation

1/2x = 4x - 7

subtract 1/2x by 4x

4x - 1/2x = 7/2x

7/2x = -7

isolate x by dividing both sides by 7/2

Which is actually multiplying by the reciprocal, which is 2/7

-7 · 2/7 = -14/2 = -7

x = -7

So, only one answer/solution

which are the roots of the quadratic function f(b) = b2 – 75? check all that apply. b = 5 square root of 3 b = -5 square root of
malfutka [58]
<span>The answers are b = 5 square root of 3; b = -5 square root of 3. f(b) = b^2 – 75. If f(b) = 0, then b^2 – 75 ) 0. b^2 = 75. b = √75. b = √(25 * 3). b = √25 * √3. b = √(5^2) * √3. Since √x is either -x or x, then √25 = √(5^2) is either -5 or 5. Therefore. b = -5√3 or b = 5√3.</span>
