Write the quadratic equation whose roots are -3 and 2 , and whose leading coefficient is 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
KiRa [710]3 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, roots are - 3 & 2

Therefore, (x + 3) & (x - 2) would be factors.

Leading coefficient is 5

Hence, required quadratic equation is:

5(x + 3)(x - 2) = 0 \\   \therefore \:  5( {x}^{2}  - 2x + 3x - 6)  = 0\\  \therefore \:  5( {x}^{2}  + x - 6)  = 0\\ \therefore \: 5 {x}^{2}  + 5x - 30  = 0\:  \\ is \: the \: required \:   quadratic \: equation.

It is 8 <br> kilometers from Lucy's house to the nearest mailbox. How far is it in meters?
kirza4 [7]

The prefix 'kilo' stands for 'one thousand'. So, 1 km = 1000m

This obviously implies that 8km is the same as 8000m

Fruit:sugar in a ratio 2:3 if 8kg of fruit is used, how much sugar?
Vilka [71]
Hey there.

Considering our ratio from fruit to sugar is 2:3, this means we need to make a proportion. I will set this up below;

2:3 = 8:x; x is a variable substitute for our missing sugar value. Let's try to see if 2 divides into 8.
8 / 2 = 4; this means our scale factor of our ratio is 4x larger than the current value, so multiply 2 and 3 by 4 to solve for sugar.

2:3;

2 x 4 = 8; 8:x
3 x 4 = 12; 8:12.

12kg is the missing sugar value in our proportion; therefore, 12kg of sugar is used when 8kg of fruit is used.

I hope this helps!
