Answer:
The answer to your question is x² + 5/2x - 3/2 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Quadratic equation x² + 2.5x - 1.5 = 0
Process
1.- Convert the decimals into fractions
2.5 = 25/10 = 5/2
1.5 = 15/10 = 3/2
2.- Substitution
x² + 5/2x - 3/2 = 0
3.- Conclusion
I rewrite the equation, now it is expressed in fractions. It could be solve by factoring.

Answer:
1.15p + 285 = 5.84
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem has two equations. Total cost and Total pounds. The cost and the pounds
p = apple pounds
b = banana pounds
<u>Cost</u>
1.90p + .75b = 5.84
<u>Pounds</u>
p + b = 3.8
<u>Now we use the substitute method for system of equations to solve</u>
p + b = 3.8
b = -p + 3.8
<u>Now that we know what b equals, substitute is for b in the cost equation.</u>
1.90p + .75b = 5.84
1.90p + .75(-p+3.8) = 5.84
<u>distribute / multiply .75 by (-p+3.8)</u>
1.90p + -.75p + 2.85 = 5.84
<u>Combine the p values</u>
1.15p + 285 = 5.84
