Answer:
x = 9 ± √14
Step-by-step explanation:
x² − 18x + 67 = 0
Move the constant to the other side:
x² − 18x = -67
Take half of -18, square it, and add to both sides.
(-18/2)² = (-9)² = 81
x² − 18x + 81 = -67 + 81
x² − 18x + 81 = 14
Factor the perfect square:
(x − 9)² = 14
Solve for x:
x − 9 = ±√14
x = 9 ± √14
(24)(20)2= 960 the answer to the question
The one next to 3 is 12, the one next to 7 is 28, the one next to 12 is 48. All you have to do is multiply the quads by four and you get the number of wheels.
Let q and n represent the number of quarters and nickels respectively.
q=3n and .05n+.25q=1.6 These are the conditions in mathematical terms.
To solve, use the value of q from the first equation in the second equation to get:
.05n+.25(3n)=1.6 carry out indicated multiplication on left side
.05n+.75n=1.6 combine like terms on left side
.8n=1.6 divide both sides by .8
n=2, since q=3n
q=6
So Peggy had 2 nickels and 6 quarters.
Answer:
By using the energy conservation law, the input energy must be equivalent to the output energy. If you measured output energy is lower than your input energy, you have lost that difference of energy either in mechanical inefficiency (friction, heat, etc.) or an energy sink.
Thus, the energy not output by the machine is lost in the process within the machine.
Cheers.
