Answer:
x=-4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
8/20=x/-2
simplify 8/20 into 2/5
2/5=x/-2
cross product
5*x=-2*2
5x=-4
x=-4/5
Answer:
a = 1
b = -1
c = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
We reorder the equation in such way that let us see the usual
ax² + bx + c = 0
Then the original quation is:
-2 = - x + x² - 4 ⇒ 0 = 2 - x + x² - 4 ⇒ x² - x - 2 = 0
Now we are able by simply inspection to identify a, b . c comparing our equation with the general equation so :
a = 1
b = -1
c = -2
3/5 + 7/10 / 7/12 - 3/10
13/10 / (35/60 - 18/60=)17/60
10/13 x 60/17 = 78/17 = 4 10/17
