<h3>Asked :</h3>
- The value of y when x is 2.25
<h3>Solution :</h3>
2/7.5 = 2.25/y
Do a cross multiplication,
2/7.5 = 2.25/y
=> 20/75 = 2.25/y
=> 75 . 2.25 = 20y
=> 168.75 = 20y
Reverse the equation,
168.75 = 20y
=> 20y = 168.75
Find the value of y,
20y = 168.75
=> y = 8.4375
<h3>Conclusion :</h3>
y = 8.4375
Answer:
x = 4, -2 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
factors:
(2x + 5) (x - 4)
set each factor equal to zero:
2x + 5 = 0
2x = -5
x = -5/2
x - 4 = 0
x = 4
The discriminant is b²-4ac
when the discriminant is 0, there is only one solution.
