Answer:

The winner of biggest loser would be Antone.

therefore weight lost by Courtney will be 270-176=94.

weight lost by Patrick will be 387-296= 91.

weight lost by Antone will be = 447-298 = 149.

therefore The winner of biggest loser would be Antone.

3+-√(-3)^2 - 4(5)(-1)
Alona [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Easy way to do this is step by step.  Your quadratic, from your entry, must be

5x^2-3x-1.

Step by step looks like this, one thing at a time:

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(5)(-1)} }{2(5)} becomes

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{9-(-20)} }{10} becomes

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{9+20} }{10}

and this of course is

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{29} }{10}

Do the same with the subtraction sign to get the other solution.

If you're unsure of how to enter it into your calculator, do it step by step so you don't mess up the sign.  If you enter it incorrectly, you could end up with an imaginary number when it should be real, or a real one that should be imaginary.

Just my advice as a high school math teacher.
