Tell how you can determine whether a number is a solution of an equation.

PIT_PIT [208]

By switching the unknown (x) with the number and seeing if one side really equals the other.

For example, by solving the equation 8/2+3*4+2*X= 10+5*x, we will find that x is the number 2, or that number two is the solution to our equation. To check whether this is true, we have to switch the letter x in the equation with the number 2, so if the results on both sides are the same, our solution is correct.

In this case 8/2+3*4+2*2=10+5*2
Or 4+12+4=10+10
20=20
Which proves that the number 2 is really the solution to the equation.

Can someone please help me on this??

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this use the equation $x^2 -15x - 50 = y$ given in the problem and the value y = 50. Substitute y = 50 then solve for x by factoring.

$x^2 -15x - 50 = 50\\x^2 - 15x -100 = 0$

Find two numbers which multiply to -100 and also add to -15. The numbers are -20 and 5.

So the factored form is (x-20)(x+5) = 0.

Set each factor equal to 0 and solve.

(x-20) = 0 so x = 20.

(x+5)=0 so x = -5.

This means the temperature is 20 degrees C or -5 degrees C. Only 20 is an option. The solutions is C.

How do i make a # line with fractions and decimals?

Ulleksa [173]

Easy..

let's take a view fractions and decimals and make a little example ourselves...

Let's use: $\frac{1}{4}$ , 0.75, $\frac{1}{2}$ , and 1

Keep it simple...

So, now let's plot those on a number line...it's fairly easy...

Just change those fractions into decimals to make them easier to manage...

$\frac{1}{4} =0.25$
and
$\frac{1}{2} =0.50$

Leaving you with: 0.25,0.75,0.50, and 1.

Now, plot..

0 | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1

(0.25) (0.50) (0.75) (1)

Easy. :D
