(?)^2-3(?)=-2 can anyone solve this

x = 1 or x = 2

Sub in x for ?:

x^2-3x = -2 (Move all the terms to one side, and set the equation to equal 0)

x^2-3x+2 = 0 (Factor the simple trinomial by finding two numbers that multiply to 2 and add to -3)

x^2-x-2x+2 = 0 (Factor the expression)

x(x-1)-2(x-1) = 0 (Group like terms)

(x-1)(x-2) = 0 (Solve for x by setting each term equal to 0)

x-1 = 0

x = 1

x-2 = 0

x = 2

∴ x = 1 or x = 2.

the equation for this situation is y=122+45. to solve the equation you would add 45 and 122 to get a total of 167lbs. in conclusion, grace's weight eight weeks ago was 167lbs.  

just do 5.2 + 2 ( 7.2) and 1/3 x 3 (.9) and youv'e got your equation. 0.9( 9/10) + 7.2 ^2 = 16.4 hope i could !
