Answer:
O.4x 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
It just is as a decimal
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first two steps are for the purpose of eliminating fractions. Doing so results in 4(2x - 5) = 9(x - 2), which is to be solved for x.
Perform the indicated multiplication, obtaining:
8x - 20 = 9x - 18.
Then combine like terms: -2 = x, or
x = -2.
To complete the formal check, substitute -2 for x in the first equation. This results in:
(1/3)(-4 - 5) = (3/4)(-2 -2), or
-3 = -3
... which is obviously true.
So you always want to pull out the gcf first but since there isn't one, we can move on.
so we can make an acb chart which is multiplying the a value and the c value and find factors that of that product that will equal the b value.
a value is 2
c value is -15
b value is 7
-30 factors to equal 7 = 10, -3
10 - 3 = 7
so the factors 10 and -3 work.
so now you make 2 separate parenthesis with one of the factors and one x. and it should be set equal to 0.
(x+10)(x-3) = 0
now solve for x in each separate parenthesis.
x = -10
x = 3
those r the roots
hope this helps
You formatted the equation wrong for the setting your calculus on i would recommend using a Ti-34
