5n + (-6) = -2
add 6 to -2
5n = -2 + 6

Let' call the number 'M' for 'mystery number'.

The number . . . . .  M

Five times the number . . .  5 M

The sum of 5 times the number and  -6 . . .  5 M - 6

You said that's  -2 .  So I can write

                                         5 M - 6  =  -2

Add  6  to each side:      5 M       =   4

Divide each side by  5 :     M       =  4/5   or   0.8  .

Solve for x<br> Urgent need help
fiasKO [112]
I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2

x = -8, 3/2</span>
