WILL MEDAL AND FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 6x^2-15=x
Take x on left hand side and then use the quadratic formula to work the factors
@ethane
lol you want my help?
Yeah lol. I did what he said and still didn't get the right answer.
Can you show your working?
hmm...ok ill help you
Thank ya
ok so you need to get the xs to one side
crap this is hard XD

OKay so first start by taking the whole equation on one side 6x^2-x-15 = 0 Now this is in the form on a quadratic equation and hence the quadratic formula can be applied \[\large\rm x=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \text{where a, b and c denotes the coefficients} \]\[\large\rm \text{ of ax²+bx+c=0} \]
this will help Simplifying 6x2 + -15 = x Reorder the terms: -15 + 6x2 = x Solving -15 + 6x2 = x Solving for variable 'x'. Reorder the terms: -15 + -1x + 6x2 = x + -1x Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0 -15 + -1x + 6x2 = 0 Factor a trinomial. (-3 + -2x)(5 + -3x) = 0 Subproblem 1 Set the factor '(-3 + -2x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -3 + -2x = 0 Solving -3 + -2x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '3' to each side of the equation. -3 + 3 + -2x = 0 + 3 Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0 0 + -2x = 0 + 3 -2x = 0 + 3 Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3 -2x = 3 Divide each side by '-2'. x = -1.5 Simplifying x = -1.5 Subproblem 2 Set the factor '(5 + -3x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 5 + -3x = 0 Solving 5 + -3x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-5' to each side of the equation. 5 + -5 + -3x = 0 + -5 Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0 0 + -3x = 0 + -5 -3x = 0 + -5 Combine like terms: 0 + -5 = -5 -3x = -5 Divide each side by '-3'. x = 1.666666667 Simplifying x = 1.666666667Solution x = {-1.5, 1.666666667}
did it help
Yes thank you
yea idk @ethane
im not a math genius @ethane
