Both A and C would be solutions to the equation.
In order to solve for this you must first get the equation equal to 0.
2x^2+5x+8=6 ----> subtract 6 from both sides
2x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0
Now knowing this we can use the coefficients of each one in descending order of power as a, b and c.
a = 2 (because it is the coefficient to x^2)
b = 5 (because it is the coefficient to x)
c = 2 (because it is the end number)
Now we can plug these values into the quadratic equation.





or -1/2 for the first answer

or -2 for the second answer
Reduce each ratio to its minimum expression to find if they are equal.
35:28

10:8

Since both ratios reduce to 5:4, they are equivalent.
Another way to check a:b is equivalent to c:d, is that a*d = b*c
In this case, this will be true if 35 times 8 is equal to 10 times 28:

Since both products are equal, then the ratios are equivalent.
Answer:
5X + 8Y >= 300; intersection at (-20, 50)
Step-by-step explanation:
let t = work hours
0 < t < 30
X = time lawn mowing
Y = time babysitting.
X + Y < 30
5X + 8Y >= 300
We could solve...
X < 30 - Y
5(30 - Y) + 8Y >=300
150 - 5Y + 8Y >= 300
3Y >=150
Y >=50
then X < -20
intersection at (-20, 50)

Answer is - 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
5/2y = 10
5/2y x 2/5 = 10 x 2/5
Multiply each side by the reciprocal
y = 4
