The solution of the quadratic equation is irrational because 11² - 4*3*9 is not a perfect square.

<h3>What is an irrational quadratic equation?</h3>

An irrational quadratic equation is an equation that contains two irrational solutions making the equation not to be able to be solved through factorisation.

Using the quadratic equation formula to solve, the irrational solutions are gotten below,

X = -b +√b²- 4ac/2a

where a = 3; b= 11 ; C = 9

X = -3+√11²-4*3*9/2*3

X= -3+√ 121-108/6

X= -3 +√13/6

X =-3/6 +√13/6

X= -1/2 + √13/6

Therefore,X = -1/2 +√13/6 or

X = -1/2 - √13/6

The solution are two irrational numbers that are not prefect squares.

There were 450 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game. the general admission tickets cost $6.50 and the upper box ti
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So you first pretend they were all the general admission tickets which is

450x6.50$=2925$ So the number is 4237.50$-2925$=1312.50$ away from the actual price. The price difference between the two is 10.00$-6.50$= 3.50$

Then you put the total price difference 1312.50$ and divide by 3.50$ then you get the amount of upper box tickets. 1312.50$/3.50$=375( Amount of Upper box. So now you know how many upper box were bought. You take it away from 450 tickets sold. 450-375=75

375x10=3750$

75x6.5=487.5$

3750$+487.5$=4237.5$

Hope that helped you!

You have a coin collection of nickels and dimes containing 63 coins. If you have
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer: 25 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

EQUATIONS:

quantity: n + d = 63

value: 5n + 10d = 505

-------------------------

Divide thru the 2nd equation by 5 to get:

n + 2d = 101

----------------

Subtract that from the 1st equation:

-d = -38

d = 38 (# of dimes)

---------------

Substitute that into n+d=63 to solve for "n":

n + 38 = 63

n = 25 (# of nickels)
