Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse proportion.

z = k/w

z = 3, w = 4

Solve for k constant.

3 = k/4

(4)3 = (4)k/4

12=k

The value of k constant is 12.

z = k/w

Put w as 2 and k as 12 and solve for z.

z = 12/2

z = 6

The value of z when w equals 2 is 6.

Factor the quadratic equation below to reveal the solutions. X^2+4x-21=-9

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

x = 3 and x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is $x^2+4x-21=0$ . We need to find the solution of this equation.

If the equation is in the form of $ax^2+bx+c=0$ , then its solutions are given by :

$x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

Here, a = 1, b = 4 and c = -21

Plugging all the values in the value of x, such that :

$x=\dfrac{-b+ \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a},\dfrac{-b- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\\\\x=\dfrac{-4+ \sqrt{(4)^2-4\times 1\times (-21)} }{2(1)},\dfrac{-4- \sqrt{(4)^2-4\times 1\times (-21)} }{2(1)}\\\\x=3, -7$

So, the solutions of the quadratic equation are 3 and -7.
