x2 + 2x – 15 = 0

Answers

Answer 1
x2+2x-15=0
2x+2x-15=0
4x-15=0
4x=15
so answer is x= 15/4
Answer 2

Answer:

x = - 5, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x - 15 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 2)

The factors are + 5 and - 3 , since

5 × - 3 = - 15 and 5 - 3 = + 2, so

x² + 2x - 15 = 0

(x + 5)(x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

25. Explain the Error Jeremy factored 144x? – 100 as follows:
144x2 100 = (12x + 10)(12x – 10)
= 2(6x + 5)(6x – 5)
What was his error? Correct his work.

Answers

Given:

Consider the expression is

[tex]144x^2-100[/tex]

Jeremy factored the given expression and his steps are given.

To find:

The error in his solution.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]144x^2-100[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]=12^2x^2-10^2[/tex]

[tex]=(12x)^2-10^2[/tex]

[tex]=(12x+10)(12x-10)[/tex]             [tex][\because a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)][/tex]

Taking out common factors from each parenthesis.

[tex]=2(6x+5)2(6x-5)[/tex]

[tex]=4(6x+5)(6x-5)[/tex]

So, Jeremy was incorrect because the common factor is [tex]2\times 2=4[/tex] instead of 2.

Therefore, Jeremy made his mistake in his last step.

Kate has 48 softballs. She wants to divide them evenly among b softball bags. Which expression represents how many softballs she should put into each bag?

Answers

Answer:

Softballs = (48/b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total number of softballs = 48

She wants to divide them evenly among b softball bags.

We need to find an expression that represents how many softballs she should put into each bag.

As it is dividing among b softball, it means we divide 48 and b. So,

[tex]s=\dfrac{48}{b}[/tex]

Hence, the required expression is (48/b).

Which of the following equations is equivalent to 2/3a - 7 = 1/3

Answers

Answer:

a = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 2/3a - 7 = 1/3

We are to find the value of a that satisfies the equation

2/3 a = 1/3 + 7

2/3 a = (1+21)/3

2/3 a = 22/3

2a = 22

a = 22/2

a = 11

Hence the value of a that satisfies the equation is 11

find the equation of the line that is parallel y= 2x+10 and passes through the point (6,-4)

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the parallel line to the given line

y = 2 x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given equation of the straight line y = 2 x +10

                                             2x - y + 10 =0

The equation of the parallel line to the given line is

           a x + by + k=0

The equation of the parallel line to the given line is

           2x - y + k=0

Step(ii):-

Given point ( 6,-4)

The equation of the parallel line to the given line is

           2x - y + k=0

This line passing through the point ( 6,-4)

           2(6) - (-4)+ k=0

          12 + 4 +k =0

           16 + k=0

                k = -16

Final answer:-

The equation of the parallel line to the given line

y = 2 x - 16
