Answer:

x = 19/2 and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

General form of a quadratic equation is expressed as:

ax²+bx+c = 0... (1)

The quadratic formula used to find the solution to the equation is given as:

x = -b±√b²-4ac/2a

Given the quadratic trinomial: x²−10x + 4.75... (2)

a) To get a, b and c, we will compare the given equation (2) to the general equation (1)

Based on the comparison,

a = 1, b = -10 and c = 4.75

b) We will substitute this values of a, b and c into the quadratic formula to have;

x = -(-10)±√(-10)²-4(1)(4.75)/2(1)

x = 10±√100-19/2

x = 10±√81/2

x = (10±9)/2

x = (10+9)/2 and (10-9)/2

x = 19/2 and 1/2

The answer to the equation are 19/2 and 1/2

Bogdan [553]
It seems like you put the same equation up there twice, but no worries! :)

8x + 32 = 2(25x - 15) - 11x

Simplify.

8x + 32 = 50x - 30 - 11x

Add like terms.

8x + 32 = (50x - 11x) - 30

Simplify.

8x + 32 = 39x - 30

Now we must subtract 32 from both sides.

8x = 39x - 30 - 32

Then, subtract 39x from both sides.

8x - 39x = -30 - 32

Simplify.

-31x = -62

Finally, divide both sides by -31.

-31x ÷ -31 = -62 ÷ -31

Simplify.

x = 2

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

x > 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y < 4x +3

y > -2x - 9

-2x -9 < 4x +3

-6x < -12

IN CASES WHERE YOU DIVIDE A NEGATIVE NUMBER,DON'T FORGET TO CHANGE THE SIGN !!!
