2n + 8 ≤ 25 |subtract 8 from both sides
2n ≤ 17 |divide both sides by 2
<u>n ≤ 8.5</u>
Answer:
The correct answer is "x = 4" and "x = -12".
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
⇒ 
On subtracting "18" from both sides, we get
⇒ 
⇒ 
On applying factorization, we get
⇒ 
On taking common, we get
⇒
⇒ 
⇒ 

or,
⇒ 
Given the equation - x² + 5x = 3, which can be rewritten as:
- x² + 5x - 3 = 0
where a = -1, b = 5 and c = -3.
Quadratic formula:
![\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2\text{ - 4ac}}}{2a}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-b%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Cpm%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bb%5E2%5Ctext%7B%20-%204ac%7D%7D%7D%7B2a%7D)
Now, we just replace the values of a, b and c on the equation above.
![\frac{-5\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{5^2\text{ - 4(-1)(3)}}}{2(-1)}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-5%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Cpm%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B5%5E2%5Ctext%7B%20-%204%28-1%29%283%29%7D%7D%7D%7B2%28-1%29%7D)
