First step is to combine like terms.

9 = 7x - 13x - 21 becomes 9 = - 6x - 21

Now add 21 to both sides to isolate our coefficient and variable.

- 6x -21 + 21 = 9 + 21

The 21s on the left cancel out.

- 6x = 30

Now divide both sides by - 6 to isolate the variable.
x = 30 / - 6
x = - 5

Answer:

4x + 28.4 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your friend attempted to factor an expression as shown. Find the error in your friends work. Then factor the expression correctl

loris [4]

Answer:

Third step is incorrect. The correct factored form is (x-1)(2x-5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$2x^2-7x+5$

We need to find the factored form of this expression.

Step 1: Given

$2x^2-7x+5$

Step 2: Splitting the middle term method, the middle term can be written as (-5x-2x).

$2x^2-5x-2x+5$

$(2x^2-5x)+(-2x+5)$

Step 3: Taking out common factors from each parenthesis.

$x(2x-5)-1(2x-5)$

Step 4: Taking out common factors.

$(x-1)(2x-5)$

Therefore, the third step is incorrect. The correct factored form is (x-1)(2x-5).
