Answer:

x=\dfrac{3+ \sqrt{29}}{2}, \quad \dfrac{3- \sqrt{29}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Quadratic Formula</u>

x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0

<u>Given quadratic equation</u>:

x^2-3x-5=0

<u>Define the variables</u>:

\implies a=1, \quad b=-3, \quad c=-5

<u>Substitute</u> the defined variables into the quadratic formula and <u>solve for x</u>:

\implies x=\dfrac{-(-3) \pm \sqrt{(-3)^2-4(1)(-5)}}{2(1)}

\implies x=\dfrac{3 \pm \sqrt{9+20}}{2}

\implies x=\dfrac{3 \pm \sqrt{29}}{2}

Therefore, the exact solutions to the given <u>quadratic equation</u> are:

x=\dfrac{3+ \sqrt{29}}{2}, \quad \dfrac{3- \sqrt{29}}{2}

Answer:

\boxed {\frac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2}} \boxed{\frac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Quadratic Formula</u> :

\boxed {\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}}

We are given the equation x² - 3x - 5 = 0.

Here,

  • a = 1
  • b = -3
  • c = -5

<u>Solving</u> :

  • 3 ± √3² - 4(1)(-5) / 2(1)
  • 3 ± √29 / 2

<u>Hence, the solutions are</u> :

\boxed {\frac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2}} \boxed{\frac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2}}

Out of the 150 students at a summer camp, 72 signed up for canoeing. there were 23 students who signed up for trekking, and 13 o
True [87]

Answer:

Approximately 45% students signed up for neither canoeing or trekking.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we subtract the number of the students who signed up from the number of the total students to find the number of the students who did not signed up for either.

But there are 13 students who signed up canoeing and also for trekking.

Hence the number of students they signed up for activity is

72 + 23 - 13 = 82

And the number of students they not signed up for any activity is

150 - 82 = 68

so 68 students signed up neither for trekking nor canoeing. The percentage of those students are :

\frac{68}{150} × 100 = 45.3333%

Approximately 45% students signed up for neither canoeing or trekking.

What must be added to 3x-7 to make x^2 +4x-1 ?
Snowcat [4.5K]
<span> x²+4x-1 - (3x - 7) = x² + 4x - 1 - 3x +7 = x² + x + 6

</span>x² + x + 6 should be added to 3x - 7  to make  x²+4x-1.
