Layla had the higher score by 20 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Points for correct answer = 10 points

Points for incorrect answer = 20 points

Loss means subtraction;

Therefore,

Total points of Ji = Correct answers*10 - Incorrect answers*20

Total points of Ji = 7*10 - 3*20

Total points of Ji = 70 - 60

Total points of Ji = 10 points

Total points of Layla = Correct answers*10 - Incorrect answers*20

Total points of Layla = 5*10 - 1*20

Total points of Layla = 50 - 20

Total points of Layla = 30 points

Difference = Points of Layla - Points of Ji

Difference = 30 - 10 = 20 points

Layla had the higher score by 20 points.

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth.
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation is x^2 -3 = -2x

Rewriting it in quadratic form as:- x^2 +2x -3 = 0.

a = 1, b = 2, c = -3.

Using Quadratic formula as follows:- x = ( -b ± √(b² -4ac) ) / (2a)

x = ( -2 ± √(4 -4*1*-3) ) / (2*1)

x = ( -2 ± √(4 +12) ) / (2)

x = ( -2 ± √(16) ) / (2)

x = ( -2 ± 4 ) / (2)

x = (-2+4) / (2) OR x = (-2-4) / (2)

x = 2/2 OR x = -6/2

x = 1 OR x = -3

Hence, final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.
