<span>Use the order of operation, PEMDAS.
6²÷2(3) +4
36/2(3)+4
=(18)(3)+4
=54+4
=58</span>
-48 plugging in everything and using PEMDAS it should be -48
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to multiply both sides of the equation by -6/5
-6/5 × (-5/6x) = -6/5 × -10/3
Then you need to calculate and reduce. First, you'll reduce the numbers with the greatest common divisor, 6.
1/5 × 5x = -6/5 × (-10/3)
then reduce the greatest common divisor, 5
x = -6/5 × (-10/3)
Then multiply (multiplying two negatives equals a positive)
x = 6/5 × 10/3
reduce the greatest common divisor, 3
x = 2/5 × 10
reduce the greatest common divisor, 6
x = 2 × 2
x = 4
(i know this is confusing, sorry)
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>
