Answer:

x = 1 or x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

ax^{2} + bx + c = 0

x = \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a\\}

as x^{2} + 2x - 1 = 2 ⇔  x^{2} + 2x - 3 = 0, its solution is

x = \frac{-2±\sqrt{2^{2}-4 *1*(-3)} }{2*1}

=  \frac{-2±\sqrt{4+12} }{2} =  \frac{-2±\sqrt{16} }{2} =  \frac{-2±\ 4 }{2}

therefore, x = 1 or x = -3

hope this helps! :D

have a miraculous day, and brainliest is immensely appreciated!! <3

HELP ASAP!right answer I’ll give you a crown
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form means

y=mx+c

where m is given its the slope which is -\frac{3}{2} and we have the coordinates x and y which is (4, -5) and we need to find the value of c which is the y-intercept so we insert all these values into the equation so ,

y=mx+c

-5 = -\frac{3}{2}(4)+c

-5=-6+c

c=1

now we know the value of slope which is given -\frac{3}{2} and we found the value of which is 1 so we put these values into our original slope-intercept form equation

y=mx+c\\\\y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1

(X+5)+(x-5)=56 what does x=?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

x=28

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x+5+x−5=56

x+5+x+−5=56

(x+x)+(5+−5)=56(Combine Like Terms)

2x=56

2x=56

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2=56/2

x=28
