Answer:
x= -1/2 and x=2/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the 7x as a difference. It'll make it easier to factor out. An example of this would be 11x-4x
Therefore, the equation would look like this: 22x^2 + 11x-4x -2 =0
Look at it as if there are two equations: 22x^2+11x and -4x-2
Factor out the greatest common factor, which is 11 from the first equation. The equation will then look like this: 11x(2x+1)
Take the GCF for the second equation as well (which is -2). The equation should then also look like this: (2x+1)
Use the numbers on the outside of each of the parenthesis to form its own equation (to factor it out). This will be 11x-2
Now we have factored! Since the parenthesis equations are the same, we know that that is also part of the equation, so:
(11x-2)(2x+1)
Solve each equation for x by equaling them both to zero
Answer: It will one year (or 12 months) before Michael is able to ride the roller coaster.
Step-by-step explanation: Because he grows a half inch every month, this means that It takes him two months to grow one full inch. Because he has to grow six inches, you just multiply 2 by 6 to get 12 months or one year.
Answer:
The number is - ½
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the missing number be x
2x + 4 = 3
2x = 3 - 4
2x = - 1
x = - ½
