A quadratic equation is shown below:

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hatshy [7]3 years ago
6 0
Part A:
3x^2-15x+20=0
ax^2+bx+c=0; a=3, b=-15, c=20
Radicand: R=b^2-4ac
R=(-15)^2-4(3)(20)
R=225-240
R=-15<0, then the equation has two imaginary solutions (no real)

Part B:
3x^2+5x-8=0
a=3, b=5, c=-8
R=(5)^2-4(3)(-8)
R=25+96
R=121>0, then the equation has two different real solutions:
x=[-b+-sqrt(R)] / (2a)
x=[-5+-sqrt(121)] / [2(3)]
x=(-5+-11) / 6

x1=(-5-11)/6=(-16)/6→x1=-8/3

x2=(-5+11)/6=6/6→x2=1

Solutions: x=-8/3 and x=1

I shose this method because I can get the solutions directly, and I don't have to guess the possible solutions

-5(x - 4) + 6 = 5(3x+4) -4
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

x=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x - 4) + 6 = 5(3x+4) -4

WE APPLY DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY:

-5*x +5*4 + 6 = 5*3x +5*4 -4

-5x + 26 = 15x +20 -4

26 +4 -20=15x+5x

10=20x

x= 10/20

we have:

x=1/2
