There are 42 kids in one classroom. They are all divided into 3 groups. How many kids will be in each group?
Answer:
- x^2+y
- 3(n-7)
- 37x-9.85
Step-by-step explanation:
1. If x represents a number, then x^2 represents its square. If y represents a second number, then the sum of that square and the second number is ...
x^2 + y
__
2. The difference of a number (n) and 7 is (n-7). Three times that difference is ...
3(n - 7)
__
3. If x represents a number, then the product of 37 and a number is 37x. 9.85 less than that is ...
37x - 9.85
2x-6=14 2x=20
a)x=10
-5x5=40 -5x=35
B)x=-7
12x+240=24 12x=-216
C) x=-18
Subtract 3 from both sides so that the equation becomes -2x^2 + 5x - 13 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
x = [ -5 ± √((5)^2 - 4(-2)(-13)) ] / ( 2(-2) )
x = [-5 ± √(25 - (104) ) ] / ( -4 )
x = [-5 ± √(-79) ] / ( -4)
Since √-79 is nonreal, the answer to this question is that there are no real solutions.
