Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS

Or parenthesis, exponent, multiply, divide, addition, and subtraction. (Order of operations)

3(6-x) + 2x = 15

Start with multiplying

18 - 3x + 2x = 15

then combine like terms

18 - x = 15

subtract 18 from each side

-x = -3

times each side by -1 to remove the negative

x = 3

3(6 - x) + 2x = 15

18 - 3

-3x+2x = 15

18 - x = 15

-x = 15 - 18

-x =- 3

x = 3

easy - peasy

I need to show how to find these solutions 1/4 and 3/4 by completing the square!

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

See explanation, and ask for more details if unclear!

Step-by-step explanation:

The perfect square of this equation is $x^2-x+\frac{1}{4}$ , since the square would be $(x-\frac{1}{2})^2$ . 1/4=4/16, meaning that you can set up the equation in the following way:

$(x^2-x+\frac{1}{4})-\frac{1}{16}=0$

$(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{1}{16}$

Take the square root of both sides:

$x-\frac{1}{2}=\pm \frac{1}{4}$

Add 1/2 to both sides:

$x=\frac{1}{2}\pm \frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}, \frac{1}{4}$ . Hope this helps!
