5x^2-2x=2<br>help plsmmm

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Presumably you're solving for x here? Without further information we'll assume that.

With that in mind, x is approximately equal to 0.86 and -0.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by putting it in the usual ax² + bx + c format.

$5x^2- 2x = 2\\5x^2 - 2x - 2 = 0\\$

let's solve it. First we'll multiply both sides by five, making the first term a perfect square:

$25x^2 - 10x - 10 = 0\\$

Now we'll add 11 to both sides:

$25x^2 - 10x + 1 = 11\\$

Which makes the left side a perfect square:

$(5x - 1)^2 = 11$

And now we can solve for x:

$(5x - 1)^2 = 11\\\\5x - 1 = \sqrt{11} \\\\5x = 1 + \sqrt{11}\\\\x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{11}}{5}$

Note that there's no apparent way of drawing the ± symbol when editing equations, so take that + sign as actually being ±.

That gives us two answers:

$x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{11}}{5}\\\\x \approx \frac{1 + 3.32}5\\\\x \approx \frac{4.32}5\\\\x \approx 0.86$ $x = \frac{1 - \sqrt{11}}{5}\\\\x \approx \frac{1 - 3.32}5\\\\x \approx \frac{-2.32}5\\\\x \approx -0.46$

10. 10x + 5y = 15<br> y=2x-3

Ivan

Answer:

(i think) 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you replace y with the equation y=2x-3, you get 5(2x - 3)

if you distribute this, it equals 10x - 15

combining like terms 10x + 10x - 15=15 will turn into 20x - 15 = 15

if you add 15 to both sides, -15 will cancel and 15 will turn into 30

20x = 30

divide both sides by 20 which will lead to x=1.5

The first 4 terms of a geometric sequence are 2, 6, 18, 54. Part A: Find the common ratio. Remember the common ratio is the numb

ra1l [238]

Answer:

Common ratio is 3

The three terms are 162, 486, 1458

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The first 4 terms of a sequence are $2,6,18,54$

To find:

A. the common ratio

B. the next 3 values in the geometric sequence

Solution:

Geometric sequence is a sequence in which each of the terms is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a fixed number.

$\frac{6}{2}=3\\\\\frac{18}{6}=3\\\\\frac{54}{18}=3$

So, the common ratio is $3$

The next three values are as follows:

$54(3)=162\\162(3)=486\\486(3)=1458$

Find the inverse function? I need help.

Tatiana [17]

Super easy. Take the function, and replace X with Y and Y with X. For example, if Y=12/x, then the inverse would be X=12/Y. Now solve for Y, so XY=12, the Y=12/x.
