Answer:
x = ± 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(2x - 1)(3x + 2) = x + 292 ← expand left side using FOIL
6x² + x - 2 = x + 292 ( subtract x from both sides )
6x² - 2 = 292 ( add 2 to both sides )
6x² = 294 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± 7
That is x = - 7, x = 7
Answer: -a^2+c\left(a-c\right)-n^2a=3\quad :\quad c=-\frac{-a+\sqrt{-3a^2-4an^2-12}}{2},\:c=-\frac{-a-\sqrt{-3a^2-4an^2-12}}{2}

This problem is simply asking us to add the weights which are presented as fractions. You can easily get the answer if you input them directly in a calculator. But I think the challenge here is to manually add fractions.
Let's add the two 1/4 lb weights because it is easier for they have a common denominator. Just simply add the numerators.
1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4
Then, add with this the fraction part of 2 1/5.
2/4 + 1/5 = ?
The least common denominator is 4*5 = 20. Then divide 20 with each denominator and multiply to their respective numerator.
2/4 + 1/5 = [(20/4 * 2) + (20/5 *1)]/20 = 14/20
14/20 is simplified to 7/10. Then add the whole number 2. <em>Therefore, the sum of all weights is 2 7/10 pounds.</em>
