STALIN [3.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

x1=\frac{-2(+)2i\sqrt{2}} {3}

x2=\frac{-2(-)2i\sqrt{2}} {3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

-3x^{2} -4x-4=0

Rewrite (Multiply by -1 both sides)

3x^{2}+4x+4=0

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

3x^{2}+4x+4=0

so

a=3\\b=4\\c=4

substitute

x=\frac{-4(+/-)\sqrt{4^{2}-4(3)(4)}} {2(3)}


x=\frac{-4(+/-)\sqrt{-32}} {6}

remember that

i=\sqrt{-1}

x=\frac{-4(+/-)4i\sqrt{2}} {6}

Simplify

x=\frac{-2(+/-)2i\sqrt{2}} {3}

x1=\frac{-2(+)2i\sqrt{2}} {3}

x2=\frac{-2(-)2i\sqrt{2}} {3}

-3x^2 - 4x - 4 = 0\\\\\Delta=(-4)^2-4\cdot(-3)\cdot(-4)=16-48=-32

\Delta therefore there are no solutions in real numbers.

Suppose you work for a large coffee distributor that has a secret coffee blend it sells to local stores. You mix the House blend
TiliK225 [7]

The ratio House blend/Organic Free Trade blend is the same and must remain the same.

So, the proportion is:

\frac{140}{168}=\frac{130}{x}

Where x is the unknown amount of the Organic Free Trade blend.

So, from the proportion, we have:

\begin{gathered} 140\cdot x=168\cdot130 \\ 140x=21840 \\ \frac{140x}{140}=\frac{21840}{140} \\ x=156 \end{gathered}

Answer: 156 pounds of Organic Free Trade blend
