The given question is a quadratic equation and we can use several methods to get the solutions to this question. The solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

<h3>Quadratic Equation</h3>

Quadratic equation are polynomials with a second degree as it's highest power.

An example of a quadratic equation is

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$

The given quadratic equation is $24x^2 + 2x = 15$

Let's rearrange the equation

$24x^2 + 2x = 15\\24x^2 + 2x - 15 = 0$

This implies that

a = 24
b = 2
c = -15

The equation or formula of quadratic formula is given as

$y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$

We can substitute the values into the equation and solve

$y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}\\y = \frac{-2 +- \sqrt{2^2 -4 * 24 * (-15)} }{2*24} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{4+1440} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{1444} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+- 38}{48} \\y = \frac{-2+38}{48} \\y = \frac{3}{4}\\ \\or\\y = \frac{-2-38}{48} \\y = \frac{-40}{48} \\y = -\frac{5}{6}$

From the calculations above, the solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

Find the value of x.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

$x=11$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u><em>Midpoint Theorem</em></u> states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

In this problem

$(x+5)=\frac{1}{2}(3x-1)$
