Answer: x = -26

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-47

substitute x with 7: 3(7)-47

3(7) = 21 -47 = -26

Answer:

<u><em>-26</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

x=7

3 is being multiplied by X

replace X with 7 in your equation

Your equation should then look like this: 3(7)-47

The parentheses around the 7 indicate that the 7 is being multiplied by the 3 or in other words: (3*7)-47

multiply 3 and seven before subtracting 47

3*7= 21

Once you have your answer to that subtract 47, your answer should be a negative # because you are subtracting a larger # from a smaller #

21-47= -26

so if X equals 7.  3x-47= -26

Consider the quadratic equation ax^2+bx+5=0,where a, b and c are rational numbers and the quadratic has two distinct zeros.
FrozenT [24]
You have shared the situation (problem), except for the directions:  What are you supposed to do here?  I can only make a educated guesses.  See below:

Note that if    <span>ax^2+bx+5=0    then it appears that c = 5 (a rational number).

Note that for simplicity's sake, we need to assume that the "two distinct zeros" are real numbers, not imaginary or complex numbers.  If this is the case, then the discriminant,    b^2 - 4(a)(c), must be positive.  Since c = 5, 

b^2 - 4(a)(5) > 0, or b^2 - 20a > 0.

Note that if the quadratic has two distinct zeros, which we'll call "d" and "e," then 

(x-d) and (x-e) are factors of ax^2 + bx + 5 = 0, and that because of this fact,

         - b plus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
d =  ------------------------------------
                      2a

and

 </span>         - b minus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
e =  ------------------------------------
                      2a

Some (or perhaps all) of these facts may help us find the values of "a" and "b."  Before going into that, however, I'm asking you to share the rest of the problem statement.  What, specificallyi, were you asked to do here?

Preston writes 3 songs in 2 days, working 7 hours each day. He spends the same amount of time on each song. How long does he spe
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2 days he spends 2*7 = 14 hours total

He divides the number of hours on each song evenly

14 /3 = 4 2/3 hours on each song.

What is 2/3 of an hour?

2/3 * 60 = 120 / 3 = 40 minutes

Total time spent on each song 4 hours and 40 minutes
