The solution of given equation is x=2

Further explanation:

In order to solve the given equation we have to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation. The process will involve distributive property and simplification.

Given:

-2(x-5)=6(2-\frac{1}{2}x)\\Apply\ distributive\ property\\-2x-2(-5)=(6)(2)-(6)(\frac{1}{2}x)\\-2x+10=12-\frac{6}{2}x\\-2x+10=12-3x\\-2x+3x=12-10\\x=2

The solution of given equation is x=2

The answer is A and D

In answer choice A the fractions are 3/6 and 4/6. In the original equation in fractions are 1/2 and 2/3. The equivalent fraction to 1/2 is 3/6 because 1x3=3 and 2x3=6, therefore 3/6 is equivalent. The equivalent fraction to 2/3 is 4/6 because 2x2=4 and 3x3=6, therefore 4/6 is equivalent.


In answer choice D the fractions are 9/18 and 12/18. In the original equation in fractions are 1/2 and 2/3. The equivalent fraction to 1/2 is 9/18 because 1x9=9 and 2x9=18, therefore 9/18 is equivalent. The equivalent fraction to 2/3 is 12/18 because 2x6=12 and 3x6=18, therefore 12/18 is equivalent.

Hope this helps :D

Does the function f(x) = 2x^2− 6x + 9 have a minimum or a maximum? Identify its value.
exis [7]

Answer:

minimum value of function is   \frac{45}{8} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function represents a parabola.

Now, here coefficient of x^{2} is positive , so the parabola will be facing upwards and thus the function will be having a minimum.

Now, as we know that minimum value of a parabolic function occurs at

x = \frac{-b}{4a} .

Where , b represents the coefficient of x and a represents the coefficient of x^{2} .

here, a = 2 , b = -6

Thus \frac{-b}{4a} = \frac{6}{8}

                                            =  \frac{3}{4}

So, at x =  \frac{3}{4}  minimum value will occur and which equals

y = 2×\frac{9}{16} - \frac{18}{4} + 9 =  \frac{45}{8} .

Thus , minimum value of function is   \frac{45}{8} .
