Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Do you mean -12(x+5)=-10?
Divide both sides by -12 -> x+5=10/12
Subtract 5 on both sides -> x=10/12-5 -> x=-4 1/6
So x=-4 1/6
Let me know if this wasn't the right equation
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
8×9 - 6×7 - 15
8×9 = 72:
72 - 6×7 - 15
-6×7 = -42:
72 + -42 - 15
72 - 42 - 15 = 72 - (42 + 15):
72 - (42 + 15)
| 4 | 2
+ | 1 | 5
| 5 | 7:
72 - 57
| 6 | 12
| 7 | 2
- | 5 | 7
| 1 | 5:
Answer: 15
SOLUTION:
Let whole number = x
x + 2x^2 = 21
2x^2 + x - 21 = 0
2x^2 + 7x - 6x - 21 = 0
x ( 2x + 7 ) - 3 ( 2x + 7 ) = 0
( 2x + 7 ) ( x - 3 ) = 0
2x + 7 = 0
2x = - 7
x = - 7 / 2
OR
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
ANSWER:
Therefore, as 3 is a whole number while - 7 / 2 isn't a whole number, the whole number must be 3.
Hope this helps! :)
Have a lovely day! <3
