Question

IF SOMEONE ANSWERS THIS ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST THANKS AND ILL FRIEND 9.5x (3 + 4x) divided by 2 + 17x = 138.5 what is x

Answer 1

Answer:

-0.119

48.577

Step-by-step explanation:

9.5x (3 + 4x) /(2 + 17x) = 138.5

19x(3+4x)/(2+17x)=277

57x+96x²=277(2+17x)

96x²+57x=554+4709x

96x²- 4652x-554=0

solving the quadratic equation:

x =(2326-√5463460)/96=(1163-√ 1365865 )/48= -0.119

x =(2326+√5463460)/96=(1163+√ 1365865 )/48= 48.577
