i just took the test and no one helped me i got is wrong but when you go back to review it it tells you the answer hope im not too late
Answer: x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
1. add 5x + 1x which will equal 6x so now your equation is: 6x + 6 = 78
2. subtract 6 from 78 to get 72: 6x = 72
3. divide 72 by 6x to get your answer 12
The axis of symmetry is x = -5
Answer: x = 4 and x = -3/2
Procedure:
1) Given: 2x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0
2) Multiply both sides by : 2(2x^2) - 2(5x) - 2(12) = 0
3) Rearrange: (2x)^2 -5(2x) - 24 = 0
4) Notice that the common factor is (2x)
5) Set the parenthesis with the common factor inside:
(2x ) (2x ) =0
6) The first sign is the same sign of the second term of the trinomial, which is negative, the second sign is the product of the signs of the second and the third terms of the polynomial, which is (-)*(-) = + (positive)
(2x - )(2x + ) = 0
7) find two numbers that sum up - 5x and its product is -24.
- 8 + 3 = - 5
(-8)(+3) = -24
=> the numbers in the factors are -8 and +3
(2x - 8) (2x + 3) = 0
That is the factored equation. Now you can solve
8) a) 2x - 8 = 0 => 2x = 8 => x = 8/2 => x = 4
b) 2x + 3 = 0 => 2x = - 3 => x = - 3/2
Answer: the two solutions are x = 4 and x = -3/2
