Answer:

x = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 23 = - 2x - 12 ( add 2x to both sides )

7x + 23 = - 12 ( subtract 23 from both sides )

7x = - 35 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = - 5

Answer: 5

Solution,

5x+23=-2x-12
or, 5x+23+2x=-12
or, 5x+2x=-12-23
or, 7x=35
or, x=35/7
Therefore, x=5

The graph of y = ax 2 + bx + c is a parabola that opens up and has a vertex at (-2, 5). What is the solution set of the related

loris [4]

Answer: Assume c = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume c = 0

Using the formula for the x-coordinate of the vertex, b can be calculated in terms of a:

B can then be substituted into the quadratic equation, along with the coordinates of the vertex, to solve a:

AND

Substituting into the quadratic equation:

Because a is negative, the parabola opens up.

You need to buy tissue paper sheets to cushion gifts being placed inside a box. The box is 12 inches wide by 16 inches long. The

Kay [80]

Answer:

Area of tissue paper is 384 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of box = 16 inches.

Width of the box = 12 inches.

We need to find find the area of the tissue paper.

But It is given that the area of the tissue paper sheet is based on twice the length times the width of the box.

Hence Framing in equation form we get;

Area of tissue paper = $2(length\ of \ box \times width \ of \ box)$

Hence Substituting the given values we get;

Area of tissue paper = $2(12\times 16) = 2\times 192 = 384 in^2$

Hence Area of tissue paper is 384 square inches.
