When you multiply anything by zero, you will get zero
Therefore you know that:
x = 0 and 2x - 5 = 0
2x - 5 = 0, solve for x
2x = 5, x = 5/2

Solution: x = 5/2, x = 0

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

a + 6a - 14 = 3a + 6a

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                    7a - 14 = 9a
  2. Subtract 7a on both sides:          -14 = 2a
  3. Divide 2 on both sides:               -7 = a
  4. Rewrite:                                         a = -7

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in a into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>a</em>:                   -7 + 6(-7) - 14 = 3(-7) + 6(-7)
  2. Multiply:                              -7 - 42 - 14 = -21 - 42
  3. Subtract:                             -49 - 14 = -63
  4. Subtract:                             -63 = -63

Here we see that -63 is equal to -63.

∴ a = -7 is a solution of the equation.

<u>Step 4: Define equation</u>

-12 - 4x = 8x + 4(1 - 7x)

<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 4:                              -12 - 4x = 8x + 4 - 28x
  2. Combine like terms:                 -12 - 4x = -20x + 4
  3. Add 20x on both sides:            -12 + 16x = 4
  4. Add 12 on both sides:               16x = 16
  5. Divide 16 on both sides:            x = 1

<u>Step 6: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    -12 - 4(1) = 8(1) + 4(1 - 7(1))
  2. Multiply:                               -12 - 4 = 8 + 4(1 - 7)
  3. Subtract:                              -16 = 8 + 4(-6)
  4. Multiply:                               -16 = 8 - 24
  5. Subtract:                              -16 = -16

Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.

∴ x = 1 is a solution of the equation.

Which of the following angles is in the solution set of sec^2θ - 3secθ - 2 = 0 for 0° ≤ θ &lt; 360°.
STALIN [3.7K]
1 / cos^2 O - 3 / cos O - 2 = 0
1 - 3 cos O -  2 cos^2 O = 0

2 cos^2 O + 3 cos O - 1 = 0

cos O = 0.2807 , -1.78   ( -1.78 cannot be a solution)

O = 74 degrees  (from  0.2807) another solution is 360-74 =  286 degrees
