Answer: 9/7 or -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can only factorise quadratics if they're in the format ax^2 + bx + c

Re-arranging the equation gives 14x^2 + 17x - 45 = 0

Factorising this quadratic gives:

(7x - 9)(2x + 5) = 0

There are numerous ways to factorise quadratics, using a calculator or via alternate methods you may have learnt in class. (E.g. 2 numbers multiply to make (14 * -45) and add up to make (17).

This gives us our solutions.

x = 9/7 or x = -5/2

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, move all the terms to one side so we have only a zero on the right:

6x^2-17x+13=20x^2-32\\-14x^2-17x+45=0\\14x^2+17x-45=0

(I divided everything by negative 1 in the third step. This is optional, but I like having the first term positive.)

Now, we just need to factor it. To factor, what you want to do is find two numbers a and b such that:

When a and b is multiplied together, they equal the first coefficient and constant multiplied together.

And when a and b is added together, they equal the second term.

In other words, we want to find two numbers that when multiplied equals 14(-45)=-630 and when added equals 17. Then, we can substitute this into the 17. You do this by guessing and checking. It's useful to have a calculator.

After a bit, you can find that 35 and -18 works. Thus:

14x^2+17x-45=0\\14x^2+35x-18x-45=0\\7x(2x+5)-9(2x+5)=0\\(7x-9)(2x+5)=0

Now, the finish the problem, we just need to use the Zero Product Property and solve for x:

2x+5=0\\x=-5/2\\\\7x-9=0\\x=9/7

Note: This only works for quadratics.

What is the answer ?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

A) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I<em>n a box-and-whisker plot, the left "whisker" is the bottom 25%, the line between the two "boxes" is to 50%, and the right "whisker" is the top 25%</em>.

In class 2, the 90 point mark is where the line between the boxes are, which means that 50% of the class earned 90% or less. That is 13/2 = <em>6.5 people</em> (this is impossible but it will work out)

In class 1, the 80 point mark is also where 50% is. So, half of the students, 17/2 = <em>8.5 people</em>, have 80 points or less.

<em>8.5 - 6.5 =</em> 2 people.

If |x| = 2 does X = 2 or x = -2? What is the solution to x = -2?
Effectus [21]
Both solutions are x<span> = 2 and x = -2 are correct

because
</span>when x = 2 ,  |2| = 2
and 
<span>when x = -2, |-2| = 2

hope it helps</span>
