Answer:

Hello :

y = 2x² - x -6

y = 2 ( x² - 1/2 x - 3)

y = 2 (x² -1/2 x + 1/16 -1/16 -3)

y = 2 (( x - 1/4 )² - 49/16).....  the quadratic formula

y = 0 :  ( x - 1/4 )² - 49/16 = 0

( x - 1/4 )² - (7/4)² = 0

( x -1/4-7/4)( x -1/4+7/4)=0

(x -2)(x + 3/2) = 0

x - 2 = 0 or x + 3/2 =0

x = 2 or x = - 3/2

Multiply me by 4 then subtract 13 if you divide me by 3 and add 17 you get 22
8_murik_8 [283]
You have to do the opposite

22-17=5
5x3=15
15+13=28
28/4=7

The answer is 7. You can check this by doing what it says and if it makes 22, it’s correct. (I’ve already checked it) :)

Answer:

x= -8     x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 +6x - 6 = 10

Subtract 10 from each side

x^2 +6x -16 =0

Factor  what 2 numbers multiply to -16 and add to 6

8*-2 = -16

8-2 = 6

(x+8) (x-2) =0

Using the zero product property

x+8 =0    x-2 =0

x= -8     x=2
