Answer:

x = 1 or -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x^2 - 3x + 5 = 0

multiply all through by -1

2x^2 + 3x - 5 = 0

....... 2x^2 × 5 = 10x^2 = +5x × -2x

(2x^2 + 5x)-(2x - 5) = 0

x(2x + 5) - 1(2x + 5) = 0

x - 1 = 0 or 2x + 5 = 0

x = 1 or 2x = - 5

x = 1 or -5/2

What value of b makes the trinomial below a perfect square x^2-bx+100
Aloiza [94]
1. Perfect square trinomials, are 2nd degree polynomials, of the form          a x^{2} +bx+c so that a \neq 0, b \neq 0, c \neq 0, which can be written as perfect squares.

2. For example (x+1) ^{2} = x^{2} +2x+1&#10; &#10;(3x-1)^{2}= (3x)^{2}-2(3x)+(-1) ^{2}= 9x^{2}-6x+1    &#10;

3. Thus x^{2} +2x+1, 9x^{2}-6x+1 are perfect square trinomials.

4. x^{2} -bx+100= x^{2} -bx+ 10^{2}= (x+10)^{2}   or  (x-10)^{2}

5. In the first case -b=20, so b=-20. In the second case, -b=-20, so b=20.

6. b∈{-20, 20}

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

2(a - 4) + 5(b + 1) = 8. The result of this equation when solving is a = - 5b/2 + 11/2.

3(a - 1) - 2(b - 2) = -11. The result of this equation when solving is a = 2b/3 - 4.
