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

Lelechka [254]

Answer: The cost of 7 roses and 8 petunias is $41.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Bethany sells roses and petunias. The expression 3r+2.5p, gives the cost (in dollars) of r roses and p petunias.

Now  to find the cost of 7 roses and 8 petunias , put r= 7 and p= 8 in the above expression , we get

3(7)+2.5(8)=21+20\\\\=41

Hence, the cost of 7 roses and 8 petunias is $41.
