There are seven people who each want half an ounce of brocolli. So, you multiply 1/2 by 7, which would be around 3 and 1/2. The actual number, will be 3 and 1/2 though as well.

Solve for x in the equation X^2 - 8X + 41= 0
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The equation has two solutions for x:

<u>x₁ = (8 + 10i)/2</u>

<u>x₂ = (8 - 10i)/2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the quadratic formula for solving for x in the equation:

X^2 - 8X + 41= 0

x² - 8x + 41 = 0

Let's recall that the quadratic formula is:

x = -b +/- (√b² - 4ac)/2a

Replacing with the real values, we have:

x = 8 +/-  (√-8² - 4 * 1 * 41)/2 * 1

x = 8 +/-  (√64 - 164)/2

x = 8 +/-  (√-100)/2

x = 8 +/-  (√-1 *100)/2

Let's recall that √-1 = i

x = 8 +/- 10i/2

<u>x₁ = (8 + 10i)/2</u>

<u>x₂ = (8 - 10i)/2</u>

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

  • 3.08 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Total distance = 10 miles
  • Total time = 2 hours
  • Distance walked = x
  • Speed walked = 2 mph
  • Distance cycled = 10 - x
  • Speed cycled = 15 mph

<u>Using the given data we can have the equation below to the time:</u>

  • x/2 + (10 - x)/15 = 2
  • 30x/2 + 30(10 - x)/15 = 30(2)
  • 15x + 20 - 2x = 60
  • 13x = 60 - 20
  • 13x = 40
  • x = 40/13
  • x = 3.08 miles <em>rounded to 2 decimal places</em>

Help someoneee!!!! <br> ill give a brainliest
Serjik [45]

Answer:

-13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-4/3w=18

You would need to get the w by itself on one side so the easiest way to do so would be to divide both sides my -4/3.

This would give you an answer of w= -27/2 or w= -13.5
