Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

x/4 = 12/6

Hint: | Reduce 12/6 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 12 and 6.

The gcd of 12 and 6 is 6, so 12/6 = (6×2)/(6×1) = 6/6×2 = 2:

x/4 = 2

Hint: | Multiply both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Multiply both sides of x/4 = 2 by 4:

(4 x)/4 = 4×2

Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (4 x)/4.

(4 x)/4 = 4/4×x = x:

x = 4×2

Hint: | Multiply 4 and 2 together.

4×2 = 8:

Y=2x^2+12x+14 in vertex form

balandron [24]

Answer:

y = 2(x + 3)² - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Using the method of completing the square

y = 2x² + 12x + 14 ← factor out 2 from the first 2 terms

= 2(x² + 6x) + 14

To complete the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² + 6x

y = 2(x² + 2(3)x + 9 - 9 ) + 14

= 2(x + 3)² - 18 + 14

= 2(x + 3)² - 4 ← in vertex form

Serjik [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

$= \frac{ \frac{3}{x - 2} - 5 }{2 - \frac{4}{x - 2} }$

$= \frac{ \frac{3 - 5.(x - 2)}{x - 2} }{ \frac{2.(x - 2) - 4}{x - 2} }$

$= \frac{ \frac{3 - 5.(x - 2)}{ \cancel{x - 2}} }{ \frac{2.(x - 2) - 4}{ \cancel{x - 2} }}$

$= \frac{3 - 5.(x - 2)}{2.(x - 2) - 4}$

$= \frac{3 - 5x + 10}{2x - 4 - 4}$

$= \frac{ - 5x + 13}{2x - 8}$

$= \frac{13 - 5x}{2x - 8}$

The answer is D.
