Question 1023025: Hello my name is Juan I'm in college, but I have a big problem I have 3 questions
The question says Solve algebraically show all work put your answer on the line. For calculation and final answer, round to the nearest hundredths. Make sure your handwriting is legible to me. check your answers
solve write your solutions as ordered pairs
1) x^2+8x-12=0
I solved like this (x-6) (x-2) or (x+6)(x-2)
I have try to also solved like this
x^2+8x-12=0
x^2+8x=12
x(x+8)=12
x(x+8)-12=0/x
x+8-12=0
x-4=0
x=4 Now I don't know if this answer is correct please help me I have tried everything but I still cannot found the answer
the next question is
5x^2+19x=35
what I have tried is almost the same as the last one
5x^2+19x=35
5x(x+19)=35
x+19=35/5
x+19=7
x+19-7=0
x+12=0
x=-12
and the third question is
-6x^2-x+5=0
(-1)-6x^2-x+5=0
6x-x+5=0
(6x-1)(x+5) Please help me I have seriously tried everything
