Answer: (12,0)
Steps:
First, put the equation in slope-intercept form.
y=mx+b
1.5x + 4.5y =18
Subtract 1.5x from both sides.
4.5y =-1.5x +18
Divide both sides by 4.5 to isolate y.
y = -1/3x + 4
Then replace y with 0 because the point for the x-intercept is exactly on the x-axis so the y=0.
0 = -1/3x + 4
Subtract 4 from both sides
-4 = -1/3x
Divide both sides by -1/3 to isolate the x
12=x
Answer: x = 4 and x = -3/2
Procedure:
1) Given: 2x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0
2) Multiply both sides by : 2(2x^2) - 2(5x) - 2(12) = 0
3) Rearrange: (2x)^2 -5(2x) - 24 = 0
4) Notice that the common factor is (2x)
5) Set the parenthesis with the common factor inside:
(2x ) (2x ) =0
6) The first sign is the same sign of the second term of the trinomial, which is negative, the second sign is the product of the signs of the second and the third terms of the polynomial, which is (-)*(-) = + (positive)
(2x - )(2x + ) = 0
7) find two numbers that sum up - 5x and its product is -24.
- 8 + 3 = - 5
(-8)(+3) = -24
=> the numbers in the factors are -8 and +3
(2x - 8) (2x + 3) = 0
That is the factored equation. Now you can solve
8) a) 2x - 8 = 0 => 2x = 8 => x = 8/2 => x = 4
b) 2x + 3 = 0 => 2x = - 3 => x = - 3/2
Answer: the two solutions are x = 4 and x = -3/2
