The formula for the quadratic formula is x (c in this case) = (-b(+/-)√(b²-4ac))/2a
This is used for an equation in standard quadratic form: ax² + bx + c = 0
1.) Put it in the correct form, if not already in it.
Ex. c² + 6c + 8 = 0
2.) Identify each part of the equation:
a = 1 (the leading coefficient), b = 6 (the coefficient in front of the second variable), c = 8
3.) Plug in each variable answer
c = (-6(+/-)√(6²-4(1)(8))/2(1)
4.) Simplify
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-(4*8))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-32))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(4))/2
c = (-6(+/-)2)/2
*Here, the equation splits in two. It becomes:
c = (-6+2)/2 AND c = (-6-2)/2
*Simplify again:
c = -4/2 AND c = -8/2
c = -2 AND c = -4
The answers c = -2 and c = -4 would solve the given equation.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
The answer to this question is $14,916
Step-by-step explanation:
18,469 - 3,553 = 14916
As he already has money for the car.
A bar model is shown in the linked picture.
I am guessing Jack is 51 and Lacey is 17.
An ordered pair (x,y) is a solution to a system of equations if it makes all the equations true.
Let's check whether (–1, 5) makes the equations true.
Plugging –1 in the first equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 + 5 = 4: TRUE
Plugging –1 in the second equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 – 5 = –6: TRUE
Since it makes both the equations true, it's a solution to the system of equations. So the answer choice is D, the 4th one.
Answer: 2584
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find N with 2584 and 4181.
4181 - 2584
= 1597
We can also check our answer by adding 1597 and 987
1597 + 987
= 2584
