The given question is a quadratic equation and we can use several methods to get the solutions to this question. The solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

<h3>Quadratic Equation</h3>

Quadratic equation are polynomials with a second degree as it's highest power.

An example of a quadratic equation is

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The given quadratic equation is 24x^2 + 2x = 15

Let's rearrange the equation

24x^2 + 2x = 15\\24x^2 + 2x - 15 = 0

This implies that

  • a = 24
  • b = 2
  • c = -15

The equation or formula of quadratic formula is given as

y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

We can substitute the values into the equation and solve

y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}\\y = \frac{-2 +- \sqrt{2^2 -4 * 24 * (-15)} }{2*24} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{4+1440} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{1444} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+- 38}{48} \\y = \frac{-2+38}{48} \\y = \frac{3}{4}\\ \\or\\y = \frac{-2-38}{48} \\y = \frac{-40}{48} \\y = -\frac{5}{6}

From the calculations above, the solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

Aliun [14]
To find the area of this rectangle you multiply the length by the width, like so (x+2) x (2x+5) .

To find the perimeter of this rectangle you add all the sides using this equation,
(x+2)+(x+2)+(2x+5)+(2x+5) .
