The given question is a quadratic equation and we can use several methods to get the solutions to this question. The solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

<h3>Quadratic Equation</h3>

Quadratic equation are polynomials with a second degree as it's highest power.

An example of a quadratic equation is

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$

The given quadratic equation is $24x^2 + 2x = 15$

Let's rearrange the equation

$24x^2 + 2x = 15\\24x^2 + 2x - 15 = 0$

This implies that

a = 24
b = 2
c = -15

The equation or formula of quadratic formula is given as

$y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$

We can substitute the values into the equation and solve

$y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}\\y = \frac{-2 +- \sqrt{2^2 -4 * 24 * (-15)} }{2*24} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{4+1440} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{1444} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+- 38}{48} \\y = \frac{-2+38}{48} \\y = \frac{3}{4}\\ \\or\\y = \frac{-2-38}{48} \\y = \frac{-40}{48} \\y = -\frac{5}{6}$

From the calculations above, the solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

Korey kept track of the number of miles he ran each week for five weeks. The median number of miles he ran during the five weeks

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

the correct answer would be A. the mean is when you add up all of them and divide it by how many numbers there are which in this case is 5. and the median is the number in the middle, in this case 20, therefore when you add up all numbers in A ,you get 105 and you divide it by 5 which gives you 21. :))
