Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² + x - 1 = 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2x² + x - 3 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 2 × - 3 = - 6 and sum = + 1
The factors are - 2 and + 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
2x² - 2x + 3x - 3 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
2x(x - 1) + 3(x - 1) = 0 ← factor out (x - 1) from each term
(x - 1)(2x + 3) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = -
Answer:17
Step-by-step explanation:Follow pemdas.
Start with parentheses which is (5+2) which gives you 7.
Now next in Pemdas is Exponents. SO do 2 to power of 2 which is 4 .Then do 3 to the power of 3 which is 27.Next add 4 to 27 which is 31.so now do 7 times 2 is 14.Then take 31 and subtarct it from 14 which gives you 17.
Look at pic to see clearly how it was solved and the steps. I color code it to show the steps.
