Answer:
x = 0.19 or x = -0.76
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 7²-4x = 2
reordering the equation,
7x²-4x-2 = 0
Applying,
x = [-b±√(b²-4ac)]/2a..................... Equation 1
From the question,
Given: a = 7, b = -4, c = -2
Substitute these values into equation 1
x = [-4±√(-4²-(2×7×-2)]/(2×7)
x = [-4±√(16+28)]/14
x = (-4±√44)/14
Either
x = (-4+√44)/14
x = (-4+6.63)/14
x = 2.63/14
x = 0.19
or
x = (-4-√44)/14
x = (-4-6.63)/14
x = -10.63/14
x = -0.76
Answer to what? I’m confused lol
Answer:
We have:
x < 4 AND x > a.
if a = 4 and we use an "or" instead of the "and" we have:
x < 4 or x > 4.
This is:
"x is larger than 4 or smaller than 4."
Then the solution of this is all the real numbers except the value x = 4.
The set of solutions can be written as:
{xI x ∈ R \ [4]}
Where this reads:
"x belongs to the set of the reals minus the number 4".
Or we also could write it as:
x ∈ (-∞, 4) ∪ (4, ∞)
Where we have two open ends in the "4" side, so the value x = 4 does not belong to that set.
