The equation given in the question is
(5x + 2)/2 = 2x - 1
5x + 2 = 2(2x - 1)
5x + 2 = 4x - 2
5x - 4x = - 2 - 2
x = -4
So the value of the unknown variable comes out to be -4. Yes your calculation is correct it seems from the answer that you have given. I hope i have been able to help you in this regard.Only be careful about the cross multiplication part.

Which point is an x-intercept of the quadratic function<br> f(x) = (x – 8)(x + 9)?
max2010maxim [7]

x-intercept means f(x) = 0

(x-8)(x+9) = 0 ⇒ x = 8 or x = - 9

There are two points which are x-intercepts. They are (8,0) and (-9,0).

A farm grew 19.8 tons of wheat in 2013. The farm's wheat output increased by 9.8% from 2013 to 2014 and by 5.1% from 2014 to 201
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: Choice D

Explanation:

The increase of 9.8% rounds to 10% when rounding to the nearest ten

An increase of 10% would use the multiplier 1.1

Think of it like saying 1 + 0.10 = 100% + 10%

Similarly, the 5.1% rounds to 5% and an increase of this amount will use the multiplier 1.05

So if we started with 20 items, then 20(1.1)(1.05) is the expression that estimates an increase of 10% followed by an increase of 5%. The order doesn't matter (so you could increase by 5% first, then 10% later).

Y=1/4x−2y=−2x+3 help solve problem.
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (2 2/9, -1 4/9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equate the values of y and solve for x.

  1/4x -2 = -2x +3

  (2 1/4)x = 5 . . . . . . . . add 2+2x to both sides

  x = 20/9 = 2 2/9 . . . multiply by 4/9

  y = -2(2 2/9) +3 = -4 4/9 +3 . . . . substitute for x in the second equation

  y = -1 4/9

The solution is x = 2 2/9, y = -1 4/9.
