1.5 is the correct answer :)
Answer: 6(x²-4x+4-4)+1=0, 6(x-2)²-24+1=0, 6(x-2)²=23, x-2=±√(23/6), x=2±√(23/6)=2±1.95789, so x=3.95789 or 0.04211 approx. these are the zeros.
step by step explanation:
\boxed{\boxed{\dfrac{12+\sqrt{138}}{6},\ \dfrac{12-\sqrt{138}}{6}}}
Solution-
The quadratic function is,
6x^2-24x + 1
a = 6, b = -24, c = 1
x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
=\dfrac{-(-24)\pm \sqrt{-24^2-4\cdot 6\cdot 1}}{2\cdot 6}
=\dfrac{24\pm \sqrt{576-24}}{12}
=\dfrac{24\pm \sqrt{552}}{12}
=\dfrac{24\pm 2\sqrt{138}}{12}
=\dfrac{12\pm \sqrt{138}}{6}
=\dfrac{12+\sqrt{138}}{6},\ \dfrac{12-\sqrt{138}}{6}
Answer:
- g=games; r=rides
- 1.5g +2.5r = 16.5
- g = 2r
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g and r represent the numbers of games played and rides ridden, respectively. Then the system can be written ...
1.50g +2.50r = 16.50 . . . . . total amount spent
g = 2r . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . relationship of games to rides
