Answer: It only has one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3( 7 /3 + 4 /3 )−2x+8=5x+12

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3( 7 /3 + 4 /3 )−2x+8=5x+12

11+−2x+8=5x+12

(−2x)+(11+8)=5x+12(Combine Like Terms)

−2x+19=5x+12

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

−2x+19−5x=5x+12−5x

−7x+19=12

Step 3: Subtract 19 from both sides.

−7x+19−19=12−19

−7x=−7

Step 4: Divide both sides by -7.

−7x /−7 = −7 /−7

x=1

Answer:

x=1

Solve the equation x^2-4x+85=0

lara [203]

Can't factor
use quadratic
for
ax^2+bx+c=0
x= $\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

given
1x^2-4x+85=0
a=1
b=-4
c=85

x= $\frac{-(-4)+/- \sqrt{(-4)^2-4(1)(85)} }{2(1)}$
x= $\frac{4+/- \sqrt{16-340} }{2}$
x= $\frac{4+/- \sqrt{-324} }{2}$
x= $\frac{4+/- (\sqrt{-1})(\sqrt{324}) }{2}$
remember that √-1=i
x= $\frac{4+/- i(\sqrt{324}) }{2}$
x= $\frac{4+/- i(18) }{2}$
x=2+/-9i

x=2+9i or x=2-9i

a counter top is in the shape of a trapezoid. The lengths of the bases are 70 1/2 and 65 1/2 inches long. The area of the counte

nekit [7.7K]

For the trapezoid, the equation used to solve for the area is,
A = (0.5)(b₁ + b₂)(h)
where b₁ and b₂ are the measure of the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values above,
1224 = (0.5)(70.5 + 65.5)(h)
h = 18
Thus, the height of the counter top is 18 inches.
