Answer:

The roots of the equation are x=-3 and x=-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct quadratic equation is</em></u>

2x^2+11x+15=0

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

2x^{2} +11x+15=0  

so

a=2\\b=11\\c=15

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-11(+/-)\sqrt{11^{2}-4(2)(15)}} {2(2)}

x=\frac{-11(+/-)\sqrt{121-120}} {4}

x=\frac{-11(+/-)\sqrt{1}} {4}

x=\frac{-11(+/-)1} {4}

x_1=\frac{-11(+)1}{4}=-2.5

x_2=\frac{-11(-)1}{4}=-3

therefore

The roots of the equation are x=-3 and x=-2.5

Which fraction is equivalent to that number? HELP NEEDED ASAP
solong [7]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the repeating, non-terminating number 0.666...

We now have n = 0.666666...

We want the number n in the form of a fraction.

Since only 1 digit repeats, the 6, use a 1 followed by 1 zero, which means the number 10. Now multiply both sides by 10 and write the original equation below it.

10n = 6.666666...

   n = 0.666666...

Subtract the bottom equation from the top equation.

9n = 6

n = 6/9

n = 2/3

16 x 3/8 so 16/1 x 3/8 = 48/8. 48 divided by 8 is 6. So 6 inches.
