This problem has to do with Fahrenheit and Celsius

Vinvika [58]

F = 1.8C + 32

С = -10 ⇒ F = 1.8·(-10) + 32 = 14 ⇒   (-10, 14)
С = 0 ⇒   F = 1.8·(0) + 32 = 32    ⇒ (0, 32)
С = 10 ⇒ F = 1.8·(10) + 32 = 50 ⇒ (10, 50)
С = 20   ⇒ F = 1.8·(20) + 32 = 68   ⇒ (20, 68)

Solve using quadratic formula<br> 6x^2-x=2

Nadya [2.5K]

$6x^2-x=2\implies 6x^2-1x-2=0 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{6}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-1}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-2}=0 \qquad \qquad x= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a}$

$x = \cfrac{ -(-1) \pm \sqrt { (-1)^2 -4(6)(-2)}}{2(6)}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{1+48}}{12} \\\\\\ x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{49}}{12}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm 7}{12}\implies x = \begin{cases} \frac{8}{12}\to &\frac{2}{3}\\[1em] -\frac{6}{12}\to &-\frac{1}{2} \end{cases}$
