To set up an equation for this you can use a variable to represent your unknown (in this case the unknown is how long it will take to frame 54 houses)

We know that 3 houses can be framed in 1 week so you can represent the equation as 

3x=54 (3 being the amount of houses framed in 1 week, x being how many weeks it will take to frame 54 houses)

You can isolate X by dividing both sides by 3 (3x/3 = 54/3) which simplifies to 
x = 54/3

2z -5(z +2) = -8 - 2z<br><br> Please explain!! Thank you
Korolek [52]

Follow PEMDAS.

You would first do your distributive property which is, -5(z+2). You would multiply -5 to z and -5 to 2 which will give you -5z + -10.

so now you have 2z-5z+ -10= -8 - 2z. Now you must isolate the variable. So subtract -8 to -10 which will give you -18.

Now you have the equation 2z-5z-18=-2z

Now combine like terms. 2z-5z= -3z

Now you have the equation -3z-18=-2z

Now you must move the -3z to the other side of the equal sign by adding the opposite which is +3z to -2z which will give you +1z

Now you have -18= 1z

Now you divide. -18 divided by 1 is -18.

So your final answer will be -18=z

Solve the quadratic equation:<br> 3x^2+x-5=0
adell [148]

3x²+x-5=0

a = 3, b = 1, c= -5

-> ∆ ( delta ) = b²-4ac = 61 > 0

-> x1 =( -b+√∆ )÷ 2a =...

x2 = (-b-√∆)÷2a =...

p/s: do your teachers teach you how to use ∆ ( delta ) in maths calculation ? i live in europe and our teachers teach us that way. however, it is a rịght and fast way. you should learn it.

kirill115 [55]
I can conclude that the sign of the other integer is positive and that the other integer is 6 or greater.

I tried explaining it, but failed miserably. I'm so sorry! :(
