Answer:

Either   x≈ -1.12    or  x ≈0.45      

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the quadratic formula to solve this, we will follow the steps below;

First, write  down the quadratic formula;

x = -b ±√b² - 4ac /2a

From the question, the equation given is:   6x²+4x−3=0

comparing the equation given withe standard equation  ax² + bx + c=0

a= 6      b= 4    and c = -3

We can now proceed to insert the values into the formula;

x = -4 ±√4² - 4(6)(-3) /2(6)

x = -4 ±√16+72    /12  

x = -4 ±√88    /12

Either x = -4+√88 /12

           x ≈0.45    

OR  

x = -4 -√88   /12

x≈ -1.12

Either   x≈ -1.12    or  x ≈0.45

Answer:

x1 = 0.45 and x2 = -1.12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation 6x2+4x−3=0 using the quadratic formula, we use the following equation:

x = [-b ± √(b2 - 4ac)] / 2a

Where a, b and c are coefficients of the quadratic equantion (in our case, a = 6, b = 4 and c = -3)

So we have that:

x1 = [-4 + √(16 + 72)] / 12 = (-4 + 9.3808) / 12 = 0.4484

x2 = [-4 - √(16 + 72)] / 12 = (-4 - 9.3808) / 12 = -1.1151

Rounding to nearest hundredth, we have x1 = 0.45 and x2 = -1.12

Jacques needs to convert the function f(x) = x2 − 6x + 14 to vertex form, f(x) = (x − h)2 + k, in order to find the minimum.
Anarel [89]

k = 5

the equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square

Since the coefficient of the x² term is 1 then

add/ subtract (half the coefficient of the x-term )² to x² - 6x

f(x) = x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 - 9 + 14 = (x - 3)² + 5 → k = 5

What is the formula to find the hight of a square
kherson [118]
In a square, all sides are equal and all angles are equal.
So, the length of the side is only the height.
Therefore height can be:
1)The root of the area of square
2)The perimeter divided by 4

I need help on this, please!
xenn [34]

Answer:

(5,9) and (5,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the point is (5,6), and the question tells you to plot two points that are three units away from (5,6) but share the same X coordinate.

The X coordinate is 5. And 6 is the Y coordinate, if we do 6-3=2. 6+3=9.
