Solve the following equation: 9n² - n - 2/3 = 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

9n² - n - \frac{2}{3} = 0 ← multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction

27n² - 3n - 2 = 0 ← factoring

Consider the factors of the product of the n² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the n- term

product = 27 × - 2 = - 54 and sum = - 3

The factors are - 9 and + 6

Use these factors to split the n- term

27n² - 9n + 6n - 2 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

9n(3n - 1) + 2(3n - 1) = 0 ← factor out (3n - 1) from each term

(3n - 1)(9n + 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for n

3n - 1 = 0 ⇒ 3n = 1 ⇒ n = \frac{1}{3}

9n + 2 = 0 ⇒ 9n = - 2 ⇒ n = - \frac{2}{9}

I need help with this 2/3x=10
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer: x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to get x by itself, and in order to do that, we need to get rid of the fraction 2/3.

Multiply 2/3 by its reciprocal, which is 3/2.

This cancels out the fraction and leaves x by itself on the left side.

Whatever you do to one side, you must do to the other, so multiply 10 and 3/2, which will get you 30/2.

Finally, simply 30/2.

The answer is:

x=15

How to find where the equations meet.
zzz [600]
The first sentence → x - 2y = -1
the second one → 3x - 2y = -3

multiply the first one by -1
you can get → -x + 2y = 1

plus two sentences together
you can get → 2x = -2

so you are able to know that x = -1
and y = 0
