5.75 +  \frac{x}{2}  =  -  5 \\  \frac{x}{2}  =  - 5 - 5.75 \\  \frac{x}{2}  =  - 10.75 \\ x =  - 21.5

What is 6.54 as a mixed number
Andrews [41]
The number given in the question is in decimal form. It has to be first changed to fraction and then only can it be changed to a mixed fraction. The calculations have to be done correctly and then the problem is very straight forward.Now let us concentrate on the problem in hand.
Then
6.54 = 654/100
       = 327/50
       = 6 27/50
From the above deduction we can definitely conclude that the mixed number for 6.54 is 5 27/50. I hope this simple procedure will help you to attempt such type of problems in future without requiring any additional help.

All factors of x cubed minus 6x squared plus 11x minus 6
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x³-6x²+11x-6

put x=1

1³-6×1²+11×1-6=1-6=11-6=0

by synthetic division

1| 1 -6  11   -6

|     1  -5    6

|----------------

| 1  -5  6 |0

x²-5x+6=0

x²-2x-3x+6=0

x(x-2)-3(x-2)=0

(x-2)(x-3)=0

x=1

x-1=0

so x³-6x²+11x-6=(x-1)(x-2)(x-3)
