Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the quadratic equation, we have

ax^2+bx+c=0

Dividing the equation by a, we get

x^2+\frac{b}{a}x+\frac{c}{a}=0

Put \frac{c}{a} on the other side,

x^2+\frac{b}{a}x=\frac{-c}{a}

Add (\frac{b}{2a})^2 on both the sides,

x^2+\frac{b}{a}x+(\frac{b}{2a})^2=\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2

completing the square, we have

(x+\frac{b}{2a})^2=\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2

Now, solving for x,

x+\frac{b}{2a}={\pm}\sqrt{\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2}

x=\frac{-b}{2a}{\pm}\sqrt{\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2}

Multiply right side by \frac{2a}{2a},

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

which is the required quadratic formula.

Finish square of ax2 + bx + c = 0 to get the Quadratic Formula. Then youDivide both sides of the equation by A, so the coefficient of x2 is 1. Write again so the left side is in form x2 + bx.

In a city the distance between the libary and the police station is 3 miles less than than the distance between the police stati
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

<em>Represent the police station with P, Library with L; Fire station with F</em>

<em>The first statement can be represented as:</em>

<em></em>L - P = P - F - 3

<em>The second can be represented as:</em>

L - P = 5

Required

Determine the distance between the police station and the fire station (P - F)

L - P = P - F - 3 --- (1)

L - P = 5 --- (2)

Substitute 5 for L - P in (1)

5 = P - F - 3

Add 3 to both sides

3 +5 = P - F - 3 + 3

3 +5 = P - F

8= P - F

P - F = 8

Maggie's brother is three years younger than twice her age. The sum of their ages is 24 how old is maggie?
Vanyuwa [196]

The variable for Maggie will be M and 2x-3 be her younger brothers age (<u>Twice her age). </u>We then would turn this into <u>an algebraic problem</u>. (m+2x -3=24).

3x-3=24, we would add 3 to both sides (-3 and 24). 24 + 3 equals 27, we now have to divide -3x and 27 on both sides, which equals <u>9. (x=9)</u>
