2x^2-7x-4=0
2x^2-8x+x-4=0
2x(x-4)+1(x-4)=0
(2x+1)(x-4)=0
x=-1/2, 4
Answer:
250 nickles
Step-by-step explanation:
Nickles and dimes are coins with different currency values. One nickel(N) is equal to 5 cents while one dime(D) is equal to 10 cents. The ratio of nickel:dime is 5:7, to put into the equation it will be:
N/D= 5/7
7N=5D ---> 1st equation
There are 350 dimes, the equation will be:
D=350 ----> 2nd equation
We can find out the number of nickels by substitute the 2nd equation into the first. The calculation will be
7N=5D
N= 5D/7
N=5(350)/7
N= 250
I believe that the answer is 1/5. I hope that this answer helps!<span />
