The solution to the equation 2x^2+x-1=2

Mathematics
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x=-\frac{3}{2}, x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2+x-1=2

Subtract 2 from both sides and factor:

2x^2+x-1=2\\2x^2+x-3=0\\(2x+3)(x-1)=0

Solve each factor individually:

2x+3=0\\2x=-3\\x=-\frac{3}{2}

x-1=0\\x=1

A square piece of plastic has a perimeter of 8 cm. how long is each side of the piece of plastic?​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a square, all four sides are equal and its perimeter is just

P=4s, so if P=8 then

4s=8, dividing each side by 4 we get

s=2

So each side of the plastic square is 2 centimeters.

Please answer this for me. Thanks!
Vesna [10]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

Is 1/4 (8y -12) equivalent to 2y - 12? No. 1/4 (8y-12) equals out to 2y-3 not 2y-12. To solve the system of equations below, grace isolated the variable y in the first equation and then substituted into the second equation. what was the resulting equation? 3y=12x x^2/4+y^2/9=1

A college job placement office collected data about students’ GPAs and the salaries they earned in their first jobs after gradua
frez [133]

Answer:

X is the GPA

Y is the Salary

Standard deviation of X is 0.4

Standard deviation of Y is 8500

E(X)=2.9

E(Y)=47200

We are given that The correlation between the two variables was r = 0.72

a)y = a+bx

b = \frac{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})(y_i-\bar{y})}{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})^2} = \frac{r \times \sqrt{var(X) \times Var(Y)}}{Var(X)} =  \frac{0.72 \times \sqrt{0.4^2 \times 8500^2}}{0.4^2} = 15300

a=y-bx = 47200-(15300 \times 29) = 2830

So, slope =  15300

Intercept =  2830

So, equation : y = 2830+15300x

b) Your brother just graduated from that college with a GPA of 3.30. He tells you that based on this model the residual for his pay is -$1880. What salary is he earning?

y = 2830+15300 \times 3.3 = 53320

Observed salary = Residual + predicted = -1860+53320 = 51440

c)) What proportion of the variation in salaries is explained by variation in GPA?

The proportion of the variation in salaries is explained by variation in GPA = r^2 = (0.72)^2 =0.5184

X-3y=18
X always has a 1 in front of it so
1x-3y=18
-1x      -1x         You will have to get -3y by its self.
-3y=-1x + 18      when you move 1x over the = it turns into a -1x
/-3    /-3      /-3      divided everything by -3 to get y by its self
Y= 1/3 - 6            and that is you answer
