Yes you can answer it! -- Step 1. 2x(6)=4 Step 2. 2x=4/6 Step 3. 2x=0.6 (repeating) Step 4. x=0.6 (repeating)/ 2 Step 5. x=0.3 (repeating)
Well, that's one method to solve the quadratic equation. Here is an example (using the symbol "^" for power): solve x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0 Step 1: Convert the equation to a form in which the right side is equal to zero. (Already done in this example.) Step 2: Factor the left side. In this case, (x - 3) (x - 2) = 0 Step 3: Use the fact that if a product is zero, at least one of its factors must be zero. This lets you convert the equation to two equations; x - 3 = 0 OR x - 2 = 0 Step 4: Solve each of the two equations.
2x+5 = 26 - x Step (1)= Move all same variable to the same side. 2x+x = 26-5 Step (2)= Perform the mathematical operation. 3x=21 Step (3) = Divide x= 21/3 = 7 Final answer: x =7
-(x - 1)(x2 + x + 1)
47 1/3 Make a percent proportion 71 x ---- = ------ 150 100 Step 1. Cross multiply 71*100=150x 7100=150x Step 2. Solve 7100/150=150x/150 x=47.3333...= 47 1/3 %
