Answer:
a=2,b=-3 and c=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x+1)(x-2)=0
2x²-4x+x-2=0
2x²-3x-2=0
Comparing it with the standard form of quadratic equation ax²+bx+c=0 we get
a=2,b=-3 and c=-2
Answer: Coefficient
Step-by-step explanation:
When solving for an unknown variable that has a number preceding it, you will divide both sides of the equation by this number, which is known as the coefficient.
A coefficient is a number preceding any variable in a function for example, given the function 4x, the variable is 'x' and the number preceding it is 4. This number preceding the variable is what we call 'coefficient' of the variable 'x'
It would be the second one because to make a equation perpendicular, you have to flip the fraction (and if it was a whole number like 6 it would become 1/6) and then make it negative.
So your new equation would be y=-6/7x+4
Factor
(x+7)(x-2)
Proof
7-2=5
7*-2=-14
Zeros
x+7=0
x=-7
x-2=0
x=2
Final answer: C
Remark
She starts out with x
She spends 10 dollars paying back her brother (that's - 10)
She spends 30 dollars on fuel (that - 30)
She spends 1/2 what's left on a tent ( that's 1/2 (x - 10 - 30) )
She then spent 29.45 on running shoes. 1/2 (x - 10 - 30) + 29.45 is her expenditures.
After all that she has 17.75 left.
Equation
x - 10 - 30 - 1/2(x - 10 - 30) - 29.45 = 17.75
Solve
Begin by adding 29.95 to both sides.
x - 10 - 30 - 1/2(x - 10 - 30) = 17.75 + 29.45
x -10 - 30 - 1/2(x - 10 - 30) = 47.20 Add the like terms on the left.
x - 40 - 1/2(x - 40) = 47.20 Add 40 to both sides. Don't go inside the brackets.
x - 1/2x + 1/2 (40) = 87.20
1/2 x + 20 = 87.20 Subtract 20 from both sides.
1/2 x = 67.20 Multiply by 2
x = 134.40
