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

kakasveta [241]
<span>His earned income level are as follows.
 
The base amount is $14,138.50

</span><span><span>The amount over $62,450 = $82,500 - $62,450 =$20,050

The amount of tax on the third $20,050 is given by 31% of $20,050 = 0.31 x $20,050 = $6,215.5</span>
(i.e. Multiply line 3 by 31% = $6,215.5)

Total tax = $ 14,138.50 + $6,215.50 = $20,354
(i.e. Add lines 2 and 4 = $</span>20,354)
