-2x=15-7y
x=-7.5+3.5y
-3x-8y=4
-3(7.5+3.5y)-8y=4
-22.5-10.5y-8y=4
-22.5-18.5y=4
-18.5y=4+22.5
-18.5y=26.5
y=-53/35
the fraction might not be in lowest terms.
The answer isw c because when i first looked at it i was like its a then i soveled the problem out
Kate: Please, for clarity, use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: 2x^2 + x − 4 = 0
And please include the instructions.
2x^2 + x − 4 = 0 can be re-written: 2(x^2 + (1/2)x - 2) = 0
Dividing both sides by 2 results in x^2 + (1/2)x - 2 = 0
Let's "complete the square:" x^2 + (1/2)x + (1/4)^2 - (1/4)^2 = 0
Then (x+(1/4))^2 = (1/4)^2
Taking the sqrt of both sides: x+1/4 = plus or minus 1/4
Solving for x: x = -1/4 plus or minus 1/4
Solving for x (continued): x = 0 and x = -1/2
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Using slope-intercept form, the slope is 3/2.
