Answer:
A. 5x^2 − 2x − 24 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
height = 5b-2
b =x
We can rewrite the height as
h = 5x-2
We know the formula for area of a triangle
A = 1/2 bh
A =1/2 x * (5x-2)
Distributing the x
A= 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
We know A =12
12 = 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
Multiply each side by 2
12*2 = 2*1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
24 = 5x^2 - 2x
Subtract 24 from each side
24-24 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
0 = 5x^2 - 2x-24

Step-by-step explanation:
First, rewrite the equation, separating the terms inside the parentheses and multiplying each by the term preceding the parenthesis, remembering that the product of two negatives is a positive, and likewise (later) with quotients:
(-3 * 12) + (-3 * (-m)) = (-1 * m) + (-1 * (-8))
-36 + 3m = -m + 8
Subtract 8 from both sides:
(-36 - 8) + 3m = -m + (8 - 8)
-44 + 3m = -m
Divide each term by -m:
(-44 / (-m)) + (3m / (-m)) = -m / (-m)
(44 / m) - 3 = 1
Add 3 to both sides:
(44 / m) - 3 + 3 = 1 + 3
44 / m = 4
(is the answer jumping out at you yet?) :-)
Multiply both sides by m:
(44 / m) * m = 4m
44 = 4m
Divide both sides by 4:
44 / 4 = m
11 = m
Verify by substituting for m in the original equation:
-3(12 - m) = -1(m - 8)
-3(12 - 11) = -1(11 - 8)
-3(1) = -1(3)
-3 = -3
Voila! That's it!

Answer: -7x-23 or -23-7x
Answer:
A) 2 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
The word <u>MORE </u>refers to subtraction. If you know how to calculate fractions. Great! You should know what 2 3/4 - 1/3 equals. But if you do not:
You can use a regular calculator. Just convert everything to decimals. ( "/" means divide)
3/4 (3÷4) = 0.75 (dont forget the 2 since is has 2 3/4) so 2.75.
1/3 (1÷3) = 0.33<u>3 </u>(underline or overline (above the number) means that number repeats. if you are using a calculator. just max the numbers out till you can put it anymore.
2.75 - 0.<u>3</u> = 2.41<u>6</u>. Now you dont know what that 416 is so just subtract the answers until it matches.
B) 1 ÷ 12 = 0.8<u>3. </u> well it isnt 416 so that isnt right.
4 ÷ 7 = 0.571... (... means a bunch of numbers that go on and on.) again that isnt correct. Now lets try A):
5 ÷ 12 = 0.41<u>6</u>!
Hope this helps!
