The soloutions to the equation 2x^2 + x - 1 = 2 are x= -3/2 or x=___

9514 1404 393

  x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 2 puts the equation in standard form:

  2x^2 +x -3 = 0

The product of the solutions is the ratio of the constant term to the leading coefficient: -3/2.

For solutions -3/2 and 'p', we have ...

  -3/2p = -3/2

  p = 1

The other solution is x = 1.

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
