Answer:

12x − 2

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x+4)+5(x−6)

Distribute:

=(7)(x) + (7)(4) + (5)(x) + (5)(−6)

=7x + 28 + 5x − 30

Combine Like Terms:

=7x + 28 + 5x − 30

=(7x+5x) + (28−30)

= 12x − 2

Find the estimates of x^2-x-2=3

Julli [10]

Answer:

$x=\frac{1+\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx 2.79\\or\ x=\frac{1-\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx -1.79$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Quadratic equation is

$x^2-x-2=3\\x^2-x-5=0$

Roots of the quadratic equation $ax^2+bx+c=0$ are

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\$

So, for the given equation roots are

$x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(1)(-5)}}{2\cdot 1}\\x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{21}}{2}\\so, x=\frac{1+\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx 2.79\\or\ x=\frac{1-\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx -1.79$

How do I solve this equation: -5/6b + 3/4 = 1/2b - 2/3 ?

Gre4nikov [31]

First get like things on the same side:
-5/6b - 1/2b= -2/3 - 3/4

Then find equivalent fractions to make the equation easier to solve.
-5/6b - 3/6b= -8/12 - 9/12

Then just add things together and solve.
-8/6b= -17/12
-8b= 6(-17/12)
-8b= -17/2
b= (-17/2)/-8
b= 17/16

You can then plug the answer back into the original question to make sure it is the correct answer.
