0.5s +1=7 + 4.5s<br> S =
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

s = -\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of s :

0.5s + 1 = 7 + 4.5s

-Combine both 0.5s and 4.5s by subtracting 0.5s by 4.5s :

0.5s + 1 - 4.5s = 7 + 4.5s - 4.5s

-4s + 1 = 7

-Subtract 1 to both sides:

-4s + 1 - 1 = 7 - 1

-4s = 6

-Divide both sides by -4 :

\frac{-4s}{-4} = \frac{6}{-4}

s = -\frac{3}{2}

So, the value of s is -\frac{3}{2}.

Solve the equation for x, where x is a real number (5 points): <br> 2x^2 + 7x - 9 = -3
Tanya [424]
Add 3 to both sides so that the equation becomes 2x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                              x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                              x = [ -7 ± √(7^2 - 4(2)(-6)) ] / ( 2(2) )
                              x = [ -7 ± √(49 - (-48) ) ] / ( 4 )
                              x = [ -7 ± √(97) ] / ( 4)
                              x = [ -7 ± sqrt(97) ] / ( 4 )
                              x = -7/4 ± sqrt(97)/4
The answers are -7/4 + sqrt(97)/4 and -7/4 - sqrt(97)/4.
