Answer:
k=-1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor and set each factor equal to zero.
Add 3 to both sides of the equation.
75k^2+30k+3=0
Factor 3 out of 75k^2+30k+3.
Factor using the perfect square rule.
Divide each term by 3 and simplify.
Set the 5k+1 equal to 0.
Solve for k.
1 Yes 2. Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
they are similar because in problem one each side is related by a factor of 3
in problem 2 each side is related by a factor of 2.

Answer:
You are currently 40 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the current age is represented by the variable x.
x = current age
The question says that "if you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago"
This can be represented like this:
1/2(x) + 7 = x - 13
Now we solve for x using basic algebra:
1/2(x) = x - 20
-1/2(x) = -20
x = 40
To check if this is correct, plug it back into the equation and see if both sides equal each other:
1/2(40) + 7 = (40) - 13
20 + 7 = 27
27 = 27
