Answer:
x=-11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given an equation for x
x -2/3(3x - 4) + 3x = 5/6
We are asked to find the value of x.
We use equation rules to solve
To get rid of denominator in fraction, let us multiply the whole equation by 6.
6x-4(3x-4) +18x = 5
Simplify:
-6x+18x+16 =5
12x = 5-16 = -11
x = -11/12
<h3>Answer: 10</h3>
============================================
Work Shown:
First add up all the ages
9+13+9+10+10+9+10+10+11+9 = 100
Then divide that sum by 10, since there are 10 values we added up
100/10 = 10
The average age is 10 years old.
Answer:
k = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given α and β are the zeros of x² - 6x + k = 0 , with
a = 1, b = - 6 and c = k , then
α + β = -
= -
= 6
αβ =
=
= k
Then solving
(α + β)² - 2αβ = 40
6² - 2k = 40
36 - 2k = 40 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
- 2k = 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
k = - 2
