Solve by grouping if you are able to find distinct factors that multiply to the last term and add to the middle term...this method is rather easy with easy to manage numbers. Complete the square if you cannot find distinct factors that multiply to the last term and add to the middle term. Completing the square helps when the equation is in the form of a parabola.
Move the decimal point one to the right on both sides so it would be 70/203. After that you can divide it by adding more 0s to 70. Like, 70.00 until you get an answer
Answer:
1. x = 2
2. x = 61/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
5 (x - 2) - 3 (2 - x) = 0
-3 (2 - x) = 3 x - 6:
3 x - 6 + 5 (x - 2) = 0
5 (x - 2) = 5 x - 10:
5 x - 10 + 3 x - 6 = 0
Grouping like terms, 5 x + 3 x - 10 - 6 = (3 x + 5 x) + (-6 - 10):
(3 x + 5 x) + (-6 - 10) = 0
3 x + 5 x = 8 x:
8 x + (-6 - 10) = 0
-6 - 10 = -16:
8 x + -16 = 0
Add 16 to both sides:
8 x + (16 - 16) = 16
16 - 16 = 0:
8 x = 16
Divide both sides of 8 x = 16 by 8:
(8 x)/8 = 16/8
8/8 = 1:
x = 16/8
The gcd of 16 and 8 is 8, so 16/8 = (8×2)/(8×1) = 8/8×2 = 2:
Answer: x = 2

Solve for x:
3 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2)/3 = 0
Put each term in 3 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2)/3 over the common denominator 3: 3 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2)/3 = (9 (2 x - 7))/3 + (7 x + 2)/3:
(9 (2 x - 7))/3 + (7 x + 2)/3 = 0
(9 (2 x - 7))/3 + (7 x + 2)/3 = (9 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2))/3:
(9 (2 x - 7) + 2 + 7 x)/3 = 0
9 (2 x - 7) = 18 x - 63:
(18 x - 63 + 7 x + 2)/3 = 0
Grouping like terms, 18 x + 7 x - 63 + 2 = (18 x + 7 x) + (2 - 63):
((18 x + 7 x) + (2 - 63))/3 = 0
18 x + 7 x = 25 x:
(25 x + (2 - 63))/3 = 0
2 - 63 = -61:
(25 x + -61)/3 = 0
Multiply both sides of (25 x - 61)/3 = 0 by 3:
(3 (25 x - 61))/3 = 3×0
(3 (25 x - 61))/3 = 3/3×(25 x - 61) = 25 x - 61:
25 x - 61 = 3×0
0×3 = 0:
25 x - 61 = 0
Add 61 to both sides:
25 x + (61 - 61) = 61
61 - 61 = 0:
25 x = 61
Divide both sides of 25 x = 61 by 25:
(25 x)/25 = 61/25
25/25 = 1:
Answer: x = 61/25
