William paid $11.70 for the pomegranates because 17% of 10 is 1.7. When you add that back to your original $10, you get $11.70.

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions for..<br> y = 2x^2 - 9x + 5.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: $x=\frac{9}{4}-\frac{\sqrt{41} }{4} \\x=\frac{9}{4}+\frac{\sqrt{41} }{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x^2-9x+5$

a=2

b=-9

c=5

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

$x=\frac{-(-9)\frac{+}{}\sqrt{(-9)^2-4(2)(5)} }{2(2)}$

$x=\frac{9\frac{+}{}\sqrt{81-40} }{4}$

$x=\frac{9\frac{+}{}\sqrt{41} }{4}$

$x=\frac{9}{4}-\frac{\sqrt{41} }{4} \\x=\frac{9}{4}+\frac{\sqrt{41} }{4}$

How to subtract a negative fraction from a positive fraction?

ikadub [295]

Let's take an example to illustrate this case:

<span>positive fraction = 2/7
</span>
<span>negative fraction = - 3/5

Now we need to subtract </span><span>- 3/5 from 2/7

Right?

2/7 - (-3/5) = 2/7 + 3/5

here we need to unify the denominators as follows:

the lowest common factor between 7 and 5 is 35
2/7 = 10/35
3/5 = 21/35

Now back to </span><span>2/7 + 3/5:

</span><span><span>2/7 + 3/5 = 10/35 + 21/35 = (10+21)/35 = 31/35

That's it

Hope that helps you</span>
