Equation is: $\frac{3x+7}{5}=15$

and Value of x is $x=68/3\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write an equation of:

The sum of 3 times a number and 7, divided by 5, is 17

Let the number = x

So, equation will be:

$\frac{3x+7}{5}=15$

We can solve the equation to find the value of x.

$\frac{3x+7}{5}=15\\3x+7=15*5\\3x+7=75\\3x=75-7\\3x=68\\x=68/3\\$

So, Equation is: $\frac{3x+7}{5}=15$

and Value of x is $x=68/3\\$

I need help bruv. For the function y=x^2 - 5x - 6 .

lara [203]

Answer:

a. Vertex = (2.5,-12.25)

b. y-intercept = (0,-6)

c. x-intercept = (6,0) ; (-1,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation is written as:

$y = ax^{2} + bx +c$

The easiest way to find the vertex is writing the equation this way:

$y = a(x-h)^{2}+k$

Being the vertex (h,k)

So first complete the square

$y = x^{2} -5x -6 \\y = x^{2} - 2(2.5x) -6 \\y = x^{2} - 2(2.5x) +2.5^{2} - 2.5^{2} -6 \\y = (x^{2} -2(2.5x) + 2.5^{2}) -6.25 - 6 \\y = (x-2.5)^{2} -12.25$

Vertex : (2.5,-12.25)

To find the y-intercept you need to replace the equation when x = 0 and get y

$y = (0)^{2} - 5(0) -6\\y = - 6$

To find the x-intercept you need to replace the equation when y = 0 and get x

$0 = x^{2} - 5x -6 \\0 = (x-6)(x+1)\\x = 6\\x = -1$
