What is the sum of the solutions for 6x^2 − x − 2 = 0?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The sum is 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

This factors into

Factors

(3x - 2)(2x + 1) = 0

<em><u>First root</u></em>

3x - 2 = 0

3x = 2

x = 2/3

===============

<em><u>Second Root</u></em>

2x + 1 = 0

2x = 1

2x = - 1

x = - 1/2

===============

The two roots are 2/3 and - 1/2

When you add these two together, you get

2/3 - 1/2 = 4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

The two roots add up to 1/6

If you had to put up a fence around a circular baseball field, you would need to know the _________?
laila [671]
You would need to know the diameter of the field, and from that, you need to get the circumference of the field by using the formula C = πd.

By getting the circumference, you can therefore determine the perimeter/length of the fence you will need to enclose it.

Can someone help me with this please

Answer: The system of equations is

40x + 55y = 920

40x + 65y = 1000

x is the cost of the adult ticket; y is the cost of the child ticket

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have to solve this, elimination is a good method.

Subtract the top equation from the second equation.

40x + 65y = 1000

<u>-40x + 55y = 920 </u>  x cancels  Solve for y

0  + 10y  =  80    Divide both sides by 10

y  = 8 .  Substitute 8 for y in either equation and solve for x

40x + 65(8) = 1000

40x + 520 = 1000   Subtract 520 from both sides

  40x = 1000 - 520

40x = 480   Divide both sides by 40

x = 12
