Solve and check the following equation algebraically. 1/2(x + 32) = -10

1 answer:

3 0

1) Given (1/2) (x + 32) = - 10

2) Multiply both sides by 2: x + 32 = 2 * ( -10)

x + 32 = - 20

3) Subtract 32 from both sides:

x = - 20 - 32

4) Solution x = - 52

5) Check

This is the verification:

(1/2) (-52 + 32) = - 10
(1/2) (-20) = - 10
-10 = - 10

Solve the equation with quadratic formula y^2+3y-10=0

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

y = 2 and y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the coefficient is not greater than 1, you can simply solve the problem without the quadratic formula.

By using the "x" method, you must figure out what multiplies to give you -10, and adds to give you 3

So, you find your values as 5 and -2. You then set these values equal to zero in terms of Y. As so---- (y+5)=0 and (y-2)=0

Then, you solve out to get your answer! Y is equal to -5 and 2

Please help this is important -1.5x+12=2.5x-12

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

move all terms to the left:

-1.5x+12-(2.5x-12)=0

get rid of parentheses

-1.5x-2.5x+12+12=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variable.

-4x+24=0

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-4x=-24

x=-24/-4 - divide

x=+6
