Graciela was trying to solve the quadratic equation x2+2.5x−1.5=0 "I think I need to use the Quadratic Formula because of the de

cimals," she told Walter. Walter replied, "I'm sure there's another way! Can't we rewrite this equation so there aren't any decimals?"

Answer:

The answer to your question is  x² + 5/2x - 3/2 = 0

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

Hello there &gt;3 i would like explanation for this :)
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

  75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t and u represent the tens and units digits, respectively.

  t = u + 2 . . . . the tens digit exceeds the units digit by 2

  t + 2u = 17 . . . . the sum of the tens digit and twice the units digit is 17

Substituting for t in the second equation, we get ...

  (u +2) +2u = 17

  3u = 15 . . . . . . . . subtract 2

  u = 5 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  t = u+2 = 7

The number is 75.

<em>Check</em>

7 exceeds 5 by 2. 7 + twice 5 = 7 + 10 = 17.
