The solution to a quadratic equation was x=-5 and x=2. What was the original equation?

1 answer:

5 0

We can write x=-5 and x=2 so that they are both equal to 0
x+5=0 and x-2=0
How we can multiply x+5 and x-2 and set them both equal to 0
(x+5)(x-2)=0
Then you distribute to find the equation
x^2-2x+5x-10=0
or
x^2+3x-10=0

Hope this helps

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

$-2(3y - 6) + 4(5y - 8) = 92\\\\\mathrm{Expand\:}-2\left(3y-6\right)+4\left(5y-8\right):\quad 14y-20\\14y-20=92\\\\\mathrm{Add\:}20\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\14y-20+20=92+20\\\\Simplify\\14y=112\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}14\\\frac{14y}{14}=\frac{112}{14}\\\\Simplify\\y= 8$
