Answer:

<h3>x = 3/2 ± √(61/20)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

5x² - 15x - 4 = 0

Add 4 to both sides.

5x² - 15x = 4

The coefficient of 5x² is 5, divide both sides by 5.

x² - 3x = 4/5

The coefficient of -3x is -3. Let b=-3.

Then we need to add (b/2)^2=9/4 to both sides to complete the square.

Add 9/4 to both sides.

x² - 3x + 9/4 = 61/20

Factor left side.

(x-3/2)² = 61/20

Take square root of both sides.

x-3/2 = ± √(61/20)

Add 3/2 to both sides.

x = 3/2 ± √(61/20)

Y = 5x + 7<br> 2x + y = -5<br> Are the equations parallel,<br> perpendicular, or neither?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Lines are neither perpendicular nor parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In equation 1, Y = 5X + 7

In equation 2,  Y = -2X -5

Step 2:

Slope Intercept form Y =mX +c

Where m = Slope

Slope of line 1 = 5

Slope of line 2 = -2

m1  is not equal to m2. Hence it is not parallel.

m1  × m2 is not equal to -1. Hence they are not perpendicular.
