Solve for the smallest value of $x$ such that $24x^2 + 17x - 20 = 0.$ Express your answer as a simplified common fraction.
Gala2k [10]
X=5/8 or x=-4/3 
here is the work if needed...
24x^2+17x-20=0
Step one: Factor left side of equation.
(8x-5)(3x-4)=0
Step two: Set factor equal to 0.
8x-5=0 or 3x-4=0
x=5/8 or x=-4/3

Sam makes some bread rolls. He gives 2/5 of the bread to his neighbor and 4/9 of the remainder to his cousin. He has 15 tools le
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Sam initially made 45 bread rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = total number of bread rolls made by Sam. He gives 2/5 of the bread to his neighbor. This means he gave 2/5 × x =

2x/5 bread rolls to his neighbor.

The remainder would be x - 2x/5 =3x/5

He gave 4/9 of the remainder to his cousin = 4/9 ×3x/5=12x/45

=4x/15

He has 15 bread rolls left

Total number of bread rolls = what he has left + what he gave his cousin + what he gave his neighbor

x = 15 + 4x/15 + 2x/5

Taking LCM of 15 and cross multiplying

15x= 225+4x + 6x

15x = 225 +10x

15x-10x = 225

5x = 225

x = 225/5 =45

Sam initially made 45 bread rolls
