How can you use mental math to determine if a ratio is simplified

Mathematics

Romashka [77]3 years ago

You can see if it is simplified by checking if the numbers can be divided with the same number. Typically, this is done mentally.
Ex: You can mentally determine that 10:4 is not simplified, because both can be divided by 2.
You can then determine that 5:2 is simplified.

What quadratic equation has -4 and 2/3 as it’s roots
umka21 [38]

Answer:

3x^2 + 10x - 8 = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

In factor form it would be:

(x + 4)(3x - 2) = 0  (because x + 4 = 0 gives x = -4 and 3x - 2 = 0 gives x = 2/3);

Now change to standard form:

= 3x^2 - 2x + 12x - 8 =0

= 3x^2 + 10x - 8 = 0.

You can set it up as an equation:
