The given expression "the square of a number is 3 less than four times the number" is represented as x² = 3 - 4x and the values of number could be: x1= 0.645 , x2= -4.645

In mathematics, when we refer "square of a number" we mean that the exponent of that number is 2. So we express it mathematically as:

x²

When we express "3 less than" of a number we mean that the number 3 is subtracting that number. So we express it mathematically as: 3 -

x² = 3 -

When we express "four times the number" we mean that the number is exactly 4 times greater than a number or that it contains it 4 times. So we express it mathematically as: 4x

x² = 3 - 4x

Organizing the values, we have a quadratic equation: x² + 4x – 3 = 0

Where:

  • a=  1
  • b= 4
  • c= -3

Solving the quadratic question we get the values for the (x) number

x= {- b ± √ [b² - (4* a*c)]} / (2 *a)

x= {- 4 ± √ [4² - (4* 1*-3)]} / (2 * 1)

x= {- 4 ± √ (16 + 12)} / 2

x= {- 4± √ 28} / 2

x= (- 4 ± 5.29 ) / 2

x1= (- 4 + 5.29 ) / 2

x1= (1,29) / 2

x1= 0.645

x2= (- 4 - 5.29 ) / 2

x2= (9.29) / 2

x2= -4.645

We can check the values, replacing them into the equation:

(x1)² = 3 - 4(x1)

(0.645)² = 3 - 4*(0.645)

0.42 = 0.42

(x2)² = 3 - 4(x2)

(-4.645)² = 3 - 4*(-4.645)

21.58 = 21.58

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

It is an algebraic equation where the polynomial formed has three terms, one variable has an exponent 2, another in which the variable has exponent 1 and the last term without any variable. Its standard form is:

ax²+ bx + c = 0

A line has a slope of 3 and passes through the point (-3, 8). What is the equation of the line​
mixer [17]

Answer:

y=3x+17

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1=m

y=3x+b

Find b (y-intercept), enter the given coordinates (-3, 8)

8=3(-3)+b

8=-9+b

b=17

y=3x+17

Hope this helps! Please mark brainliest :)

Alemu, Tulu, Kassa and Tegitu worked for 4 hours, 6 hours, 5 hours
GaryK [48]
As a group they were paid $1000 after putting in 4+6+5+5 = 20 worker-hours.
$1000/(20 worker-hours) = $50/(worker-hour)
Alemu received 4*$50 = $200
Tulu received 6*$50 = $300
Kassa and Tegitu each received 5*$50 = $250
