Answer:

Sam is 12, sam's brother is 19, and sam's mom is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

First the equation you need to use is S+7+S+3S-4=63(the variable s represents Sam), you combine the like terms which then equals 5S+3=63, then you use inverse operations. Subtract 3 on both sides, 5S=60, then you divide on both sides which equals S equals 12. Then you just plug in the number, S is Sam which means Sam's 12. Then 12+7 which is 19, Sam's brother. Then 3 times 12 minus 4 is 32. And if you check to make sure, 12+19+32 does equal 63.

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the quadratic equation below x^2-7x-3=0
cupoosta [38]

the roots are \frac{7+\sqrt{61} }{2} and \frac{7-\sqrt{61} }{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

here we use Shridhar acharya formula

if ax^{2} + bx +c = 0 is the quadratic equation

the the roots are , \frac{-b +\sqrt{b^{2-4ac} } }{2a} and \frac{-b -\sqrt{b^{2-4ac} } }{2a}

comparing with the equation we get a=1 b= -7 c = -3

hence the roots are \frac{7 +\sqrt{7^{2-4X1X(-3)} } }{2X1} and \frac{7 -\sqrt{7^{2-4X1X(-3)} } }{2X1}

= \frac{7+\sqrt{61} }{2} and \frac{7-\sqrt{61} }{2}
