Answer:

$2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

x/5 = 1/2

x is equal to 1 because it is half of the total and 1 is half of 2.

5 is equal to 2 because it is the whole amount and 2 is also the whole amount.

If you then solve for x by doing

5(1) = 5

5/2 = 2.5

You get 2.5 or $2.50.

9. Factorize: 6x2 - 19x + 14.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to factor the given polynomial

We have this as;

6x^2 - 19x + 14

= 6x^2 -12x-7x + 14

= 6x(x-2) -7(x-2)

= (6x-7)(x-2)

6x^2-19x + 14 = (6x-7)(x-2)
