Answer:
Total Mark = 5c - a
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Mark = 4c - (a - c) = 5c - a
Marks for correct questions = 4c
Marks deducted for incorrect questions = a - c
Add 3 to both sides so that the equation becomes -2x^2 + 5x + 5 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
x = [ -5 ± √(5^2 - 4(-2)(5)) ] / ( 2(-2) )
x = [-5 ± √(25 - (-40) ) ] / ( -4 )
x = [-5 ± √(65) ] / ( -4)
x = [-5 ± sqrt(65) ] / ( -4 )
x = 5/4 ± -sqrt(65)/4
The answers are 5/4 + sqrt(65)/4 and 5/4 - sqrt(65)/4..

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If she doubles the area of her lot, it should be 2x^2.
But how do you get that?
The answer is that the sides have now increased to √2x
How did I get that, and why did I choose it?
- The formula for a square's area is s^2
- If you want to double the area, it will be 2 s^2. Now what?
- Take the square root of 2s^2 which is √(2s^2).
- What that means is the side is now √2 s
3x + 5y = 1 . . . . . . . . (1)
7x + 4y = -13 . . . . . . .(2)
(1) x 7: 21x + 35y = 7 . . (3)
(2) x 3: 21x + 12y = -39 .(4)
(3) - (4) = 23y = 46
y = 46/23 = 2
