5-2x2=-15

Two solutions were found :

                  x = ± √10 = ± 3.1623

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    5-2*x^2-(-15)=0

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 (5 -  2x2) -  -15  = 0

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  20 - 2x2  =   -2 • (x2 - 10)

Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :

3.2      Factoring:  x2 - 10

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares,  A2 - B2  can be factored into  (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof :  (A+B) • (A-B) =

        A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

        A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

        A2 - B2

Note :  AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note :  - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check : 10 is not a square !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect squares.

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 -2 • (x2 - 10)  = 0

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

4.1      Solve :    -2   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

4.2      Solve  :    x2-10 = 0

Add  10  to both sides of the equation :

                     x2 = 10

When two things are equal, their square roots are equal. Taking the square root of the two sides of the equation we get:  

                     x  =  ± √ 10  

The equation has two real solutions  

These solutions are  x = ± √10 = ± 3.1623  

Two solutions were found :

                  x = ± √10 = ± 3.1623

Use the graph to find the unit rate for renting a kayak.​
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Unit rate: $15 per hour

ordered pair: (1 ,15)

Step-by-step explanation:

30 ÷ 2 = 15

45 ÷ 3 = 15  

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  

they both have 15, which means the graph is proportional and the unit rate is $15 per hour

Jy is hiking glacier national park he now has hiked a total of 17 km and is 2 km short of being 1/2 of the way done with his hik
anastassius [24]

Jy has hiked 17km

He is 2km short of being half of the way done with hicking

Let the total distance he hiked be xkm

Then 1/2x = 17 + 2km

1/2x = 19km

x = 19 × 2 = 38km

The total distance he covered was 38km.
