Answer:

The equation should be solved to find the roots of 2x² + 5x - 12 = 0 is

(2x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of an equation is values of x when y is equal to zero

∵ y = 2x² + 5x - 12 is a quadratic equation

∴ The roots of the equations are values of x when y = 0

∵ The factorization of 2x² + 5x - 12 is (2x - 3)(x + 4)

∵ 2x² + 5x - 12 = (2x - 3)(x + 4)

∵ 2x² + 5x - 12 = 0

- Equate the right hand side above by 0

∴ (2x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

- Now equate each bracket by 0 to find the values of x

∵ 2x - 3 = 0

- Add 3 to both sides

∴ 2x = 3

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 1.5

∵ x + 4 = 0

- Subtract 4 from both sides

∴ x = -4

∴ The roots of the equations are -4 and 1.5

The equation should be solved to find the roots of 2x² + 5x - 12 = 0 is

(2x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

How many integers are there that consist of four digits (from 1000 to 9999) where the first digit is a 5 or an 8 and the third d
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

1600 integers

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a four digit number, there are four digit placements.

For the first digit, since there can either be a 5 or an 8, we have the arrangement as ²P₁ = 2 ways.

For the second digit, we have ten numbers to choose from, so we have ¹⁰P₁ = 10.

For the third digit, since it neither be a 5 or an 8, we have two less digit from the total of ten digits which is 10 - 2 = 8. So, the number of ways of arranging that is ⁸P₁ = 8.

For the last digit, we have ten numbers to choose from, so we have ¹⁰P₁ = 10.

So, the number of integers that can be formed are 2 × 10 × 8 × 10 = 20 × 80 = 1600 integers

Due in 10!!! Fill in the blanks…
Alenkinab [10]

sorry this is late!!

#1 - A circular grid like this one can be helpful for performing dilations

#2 - To perform a dilation, we need a (In order to perform a dilation, students will need to know the center of dilation (which can be communicated using the coordinate grid), the coordinates of the polygon that they are dilating (also communicated using the coordinate grid), and the scale factor.)

Solve 3x + 7 > -x - 9. Show each step of your work.
Kruka [31]

Answer:

x > -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities like these are solved the same way equations are solved, except when multiplying both sides you flip the less than/greater than sign:

3x + 7 > -x -9

3x + 7 - 7 > -x -9 -7     Subtract 7 from both sides

3x > -x -16

3x + x > -x -16 + x     add x to both sides

4x > -16

\frac{4x}{4} > \frac{-16}{4}     divide both sides by 4

x > -4

In this case the inequality sign did not have to be flipped since we never multiply both sides by a negative number.
