Hello there!

x² + x = 7/4
x² + - 7/4 = 0

Now we gonna use the quadratic formula to find x
a= 1
b=1
c = -1.75

x = -b+/-√b² -4ac all of them divide by 2a
x = -(1)+/-√(1)² - (4)(1)(-1.75) all of them divide by 2(1)
x= -1+/-√8 all of them divide by 2
x = -1/2 + √2 or x = -1/2 - √2

The correct option is option C

I hope that helps!

Miriams house has a markey value of 125,000. The tax accessory evaluated her property tax rate to be 42%. What is the assessed v

MakcuM [25]

If you use the formula it states Assessed Value = Market Value x Rate.
Assessed value = 125000
Rate = 42In addition to the rate, you must divide 42 by 100, which makes .42 then add 1.
42/100 = 0.42 + 1 = 1.42
125000(1.42) = 177500
$177,500 is Miriam's assessed value of her house.

All you need to do is divide 6.64 and 1.35. you would get 4.91851852. But, you need to round to the nearest tenth so it would actually be 4.9.
