<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The right choice is </u><u>(D) x= -4, 5/2</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

2x^2+3x-20=0

By factoring the expression we get

2x²2 +8x−5x−20=0

(x+4) (2x−5) = 0

Now

(x+4) = 0 OR x = -4

and

(2x-5) = 0 OR x = 5/2

S the solutions are

x= -4 and x = 5/2

Solve for c. -3b+ac=c-4. Please show all work.

Luden [163]

-3b+ac=4
Move c to the left and - 3b to the right
ac-c=-4+3b
Now factor by c at the left
c(a-1)=-4+3b
Divide the right by a-1
C=(-4+3b)/(a-1)

If the product of two number is 10 and the sum is 7 ,then the longest of the two number is

irinina [24]

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Le the first number be x

and the second number be y

x*y= 10-----------------1

and

x+y= 7-----------------2

from eqn 1

x= 10/y

put x= 10/y in eqn 2

$10/y+y= 7\\\\10/y= 7-y$

cross multiply we have

$10=y(7-y)\\\\10=7y-y^2$

rearrange

$y^2-7y+10=0$

the factors of the quadratic expression are

-5 and -2

$y^2-5y-2y+10= 0\\\\y(y-5)-2(y-5) =0\\\\y-2=0\\\\y= 2\\\\y-5= 0\\\\y=5\\\\$

The longest side is 5 units
