To solve this algebraically, it is convenient to subtract 2x-7 from both sides of the equation:
3x(x -4) +5 -x -(2x -7) = 0
3x^2 -12x +5 -x -2x +7 = 0 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
3x^2 -15x +12 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
3(x -1)(x -4) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor
The values of x that make these factors zero are x=1 and x=4. These are the solutions to the equation. There are two solutions.

<em>Alternate method</em>
Once you get to the quadratic form, you can find the number of solutions without actually finding the solutions. The discriminant is ...
d = b^2 -4ac . . . . where a, b, c are the coefficients in the form ax^2+bx+c
d = (-15)^2 -4(3)(12) = 225 -144 = 81
This positive value means the equation has 2 real solutions.
Answer:
A = 23.6 units^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the base be 8 (as shown).
Find the height of the triangle: Find the supplement of the 100 degree angle; it is (180 - 100), or 80 degrees. The side "opposite" this 80-degree angle is the height of the triangle:
height
sin 80 degrees = ---------------
6
and so the height of the triangle is h = 6 sin 80 degrees, or 5.91 units.
The area of the triangle is found using A = (1/2)(base)(height), which here amounts to:
A = (1/2)(8 units)(5.91 units), or
A = 23.64 units^2, or A = 23.6 units^2
Well you can either think of actually dividing the fraction or reduce to lowest forms which is 1/2. then from 1/2 you can either divide that or just say it is .5.

Step-by-step explanation:
TU and CV are two chords of the circle that intersects at point w.
Thus,
(two intersecting chords theorem)
Solve for x
Divide both sides by 3
