Answer:

  x = -1/2, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Written in standard form, the equation is ...

  2x² -13x -7 = 0

We observe that factors of (2)(-7) that have a sum of -13 are -14 and +1. Rewriting the middle term using these numbers, we have ...

  2x² -14x +x -7 = 0

  2x(x -7) +1(x -7) = 0 . . . . . factor pairs of terms

  (2x +1)(x -7) = 0 . . . . . . . . factored form

The solutions are the values of x that make these factors zero.

  2x +1 = 0   ⇒   x = -1/2

  x -7 = 0   ⇒   x = 7

The solutions to the quadratic are x = -1/2 and x = 7.

Answer:

x+63 = 90

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are complementary, so they add to 90 degrees

x+63 = 90

Subtract 63 from each side

x+63-63 = 90-63

x = 27

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You’re supposed to use the points (4,-3) and (1,-4).

Slope = (difference of y-coordinates)/(difference of x-coordinates)

= (-3 - (-4))/(4 - 1) = 1/3

2.46875 in fractionform
Kaylis [27]
2.46875 in a fraction form would look like this:

2.46875 =
= 2 46875/100000 =
= 2 9375/20000 =
= 2 1875/4000 =
= 2 375/800 =
= 2 75/160 =
= 2 15/32

I just kept simplifying it by dividing both numerator and denominator by 5 until I got its simplest form.

Answer:

  • 9x -5y = 4 . . . . standard form
  • 9x -5y -4 = 0 . . . . general form
  • y -1 = 9/5(x -1) . . . . . point-slope form

Step-by-step explanation:

The intercepts are ...

  x-intercept = -4/-9 = 4/9

  y-intercept = -4/5

Knowing these intercepts means we can put the equation in intercept form.

  x/(4/9) -y/(4/5) = 1

The fractional intercepts make graphing somewhat difficult. However, we observe that the sum of the x- and y-coefficients is equal to the constant:

  -9 +5 = -4

This means the point (x, y) = (1, 1) is on the graph. Knowing a point, we can write several equations using that point.

We like a positive leading coefficient (as for standard or general form), so we can multiply the given equation by -1.

  9x -5y = 4 . . . . . standard form equation

Adding -4, so f(x,y) = 0, puts this in general form.

  9x -5y -4 = 0

We can eliminate the constant by translating a line from the origin to the point we know:

  9(x -1) -5(y -1) = 0

This can be rearranged to the traditional point-slope form ...

  y -1 = 9/5(x -1)

Yet another equation can be written that tells you the slope is the same everywhere:

  (y -1)/(x -1) = 9/5

These are only a few of the many possible forms of a linear equation.

Can someone tell me how this is wrong​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

y = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

We have five values : 2 , 5 , 7 , y , 9

and the mean = 8

this means :

\frac{2+5+7+y+9}{5} =8\\\\then\\\\23+y = 8*5\\\\then\\\\y = 40 - 23\\\\then\\\\y=17

Verification: (2+5+7+17+9)÷5 = 8
