Answer:
x= 2.5
x= 2.5x = - 4
Explanation:
1:2
x² : (20 - 3x)
x2 : x 1
2x² : 1(20-3x)
2x² : 20 - 3x
+3x , then - 20
2x² + 3x - 20 = 0
2 x - 20 = - 40
x to get - 40
+ to get 3
(8 x - 5 = -40 & 8 + - 5 = 3)
Split 3x into 8x & - 5x, then factorise:
2x^2 + 3x - 20 = 0
2x^2 + 8x - 5x - 20 = 0
2x(x+4) - 5(x + 4)
(2x-5) (x+4) =0
2x - 5 = 0
+5
2x = 5
÷2
x = 2.5
x+4=0
-4
x = - 4
x=2.5,-4
Hope this helps!
