The solution set for 6a2 - a -5 = 0 is

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6a² - a - 5 = 0

Consider the factors of the product of the a² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the a- term.

product = 6 × - 5 = - 30 and sum = - 1

The factors are - 6 and + 5

Use these factors to split the a- term

6a² - 6a + 5a - 5 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

6a(a - 1) + 5(a - 1) = 0 ← factor out (a - 1) from each term

(a - 1)(6a + 5) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for a

a - 1 = 0 ⇒ a = 1

6a + 5 = 0 ⇒ 6a = - 5 ⇒ a = -

Solution set = { 1, - }

step-by-step explanation:

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p
