Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Quadratic equation           x² + 2.5x - 1.5 = 0

Process

1.- Convert the decimals into fractions

2.5 = 25/10 = 5/2

1.5 = 15/10 = 3/2

2.- Substitution

                                       x² + 5/2x - 3/2 = 0

The length of a rectangle is 5 inches shorter than double its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 192 inches. Write a two-s
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let the width = x

Let the length = x + 5

Equation

2w + 2W = P

Solution

2x + 2(x + 5) = 192                  Remove the brackets    <=== Answer

2x + 2x + 10 = 192                  Combine like terms

4x + 10 = 192                          Subtract 10 from both sides

4x = 192 - 10                        

4x = 182                                 Divide by 4

4x/4 = 182/4

x = 45.5

How is 17 + 26 different from 36 + 53? Explain ( this is regrouping lesson)
xxMikexx [17]
17+26 is different from 36+53 by if you add 17+26 the sum would be 43. And if you add 36+53 the sum would also be 89. So that means the way how they are  different is that the 17+26 and 36+53 has different kinds of sums. They have different kinds of sums because you are different numbers.
