G 1) a2 + 3a – 40 = 0 . solving quadratic equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
QveST [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The solution set is {-8, 5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + 3a – 40 = 0 .

We need 2 numbers whose product is  -40 and whose sum is +3.

They would be + 8 and - 5, so we have the factors:

(a + 8)(a - 5) = 0

Now either a + 8 = 0 or a - 5 = 0, so:

a = -8 or 5.

Kate made 4 dresses with 7 yards of fabric. how many yards did she use on 1 dress
Ksju [112]
This is a fraction equal to
7 yards ÷ 4 dresses

We want a unit rate where
<span>1 is in the denominator, </span>
so we divide top and bottom by 4.

7÷4= 1.75
_
4÷4=1.
Therefore, Kate used 1.75 yards per one dress (1.75 yds. p/ d)

Hope I helped! :)
