Subtract 5 to both sides so that the equation becomes -2x^2 + 6x - 1 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                                            x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                                            x = [ -6 ± √((6)^2 - 4(-2)(-1)) ] / ( 2(-2) )
                                            x = [-6 ± √(36 - (8) ) ] / ( -4 )
                                            x = [-6 ± √(28) ] / (-4)
                                            x = [-6 ± 2*sqrt(7) ] / (-4 )
                                            x =3/2 ± -sqrt(7)/ 2
The answers are 3/2 + sqrt(7)/2 and 3/2 - sqrt(7)/2.

K(x) = 6x+100 k(-5) =
kkurt [141]

Answer:

k(-5)=70

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

k(x)=6x+100

To find k(-5), we put x=-5 into the given function to get;

k(-5)=6(-5)+100

Multiply out to obtain;

k(-5)=-30+100

This is the same as;

k(-5)=100-30

This simplifies to

k(-5)=70
