With the facts you got here, you can make the following equation:
x*(x+2)=24
x^2+2x=24
x^2+2x-24=0
Then you can use the following formula (which you might have seen before):
x = (-b +/- sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
where
ax^2+bx+c=0
(-2 +/- sqrt(4+96))/2
(-2 +/- 10)/2
x_1 = 4
x_2 = -6
Answer: x = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step by step!
3/8x + 15/2 = 18
Step 1: Subtract 15/2 from both sides.
3/8x + 15/2 - 15/2 = 18 - 15/2
3/8x = 21/2
Step 2: Multiply both sides by 8/3
(8/3) * (3/8x) = (8/3) * (21/2)
Step 3. Calculate
x = 28
S = 32 and t = 45
You replace the letters into numbers...
Since (st) is the same thing as (s × t), it would be 32 × 45, which equals to 1,440.
Then replace the r with 5, so now it's (6 × 5), instead of (6r).
st ÷ (6r) → 1,440 ÷ 30 = 48
Value of st ÷ (6r) = 48
