2x^2- 5x + 6 when x = -2
yarga [219]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x= -2

2x² - 5x + 6 = 2(-2)² - 5*(-2) + 6

                  = 2*4 + 10 + 6

                   = 8 + 10 + 6

                  = 24

A rational number is such that when you multiply it by 5/2 and add 2/3 to the product, you get 7/12. What is the number?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:A rational number is such that when you multiply it by 5/2 and add 2/3 to the product you get -7/12 . What is the number.

Step-by-step explanation:Let p/q (q ≠ 0) denote the rational number. Multiplying it by 5/2 gives (p/q)(5/2). Add 2/3 to the product and we get (p/q)(5/2) + 2/3 . The result is given to be -7/12.

∴ (p/q)(5/2) + 2/3 = -7/12 …………………………..……………………………………..(1)

Transposing 2/3 to right-hand-side and changing the sign to negative,

(p/q)(5/2) = -2/3 -7/12 = -(2/3 + 7/12) =- (2 x 4 + 7)/12 (Taking L.C.M.)

Or, (p/q)(5/2) = -(8+7)/12 = - 15/12

Multiplying both sides by 2/5,

(p/q)(5/2) x (2/5) = -15/12 . 2/5 = -(3x5)/(3x4) . 2/5 =- 5/4 .2/5

Since 2/5 is the multiplicative inverse of 5/2, 5/2 x 2/5 = 1 and we obtain

(p/q).1 = -1/4 . 2/1 = -1/2

⇒ p/q = -1/2 which is a negative rational number in which p = 1 and q = 2 ≠ 0 .

∴ the rational number = -1/2

How do you solve <br>|3x|=18
Oduvanchick [21]

We can get two different equations from this:

3x = 18

and

3x = -18

So:

x = 6, x = -6

x = {6, -6}
