Answer:

x = -6; the number is -6!

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a somewhat wordy question, but it is actually easy to solve once you write it down!

It should look like this:

5x-2=7x+10

See? It's simple! Now we just solve from there.

5x-2=7x+10\\-2x-2=10\\-2x=12\\x=-6

How do I rewrite a quadratic into graphing form
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of a quadratic is f(x) = ax² + bx + c.

To convert to vertex form, the simplest method is to find the x-coordinate of the vertex using h = -b/(2a).

Then, plug back into the equation to find the y-coordinate of the vertex.  k = f(h).

Finally, the leading coefficient is the same as the standard form, a.

f(x) = a(x − h)² + k

Another method is to complete the square.
