x = or x = -
consider the factors of the product 6 × - 4 = - 24 which sum to the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)
the factors are + 8 and - 3 ( split the middle term using these factors
6x² - 3x + 8x - 4 = 0 ( factor by grouping )
3x(2x - 1) + 4(2x - 1 ) ( take out common factor of (2x - 1) )
= (2x - 1)(3x + 4) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x =
3x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -
The ratio of the heights of these pyramids is 3 : 1, the ratio of the base areas is 9 : 1 and the ratio of the volumes is 27 : 1.
<h3>What is ratio?</h3>Ratio can be defined as a mathematical expression which denotes the proportion of two (2) or more physical quantities to one another and the total quantities.
The ratio of the heights of these pyramids is given by:
Ratio = Height of pyramid A : Height of pyramid B
Ratio = (3V/lw) : (V/lw)
Ratio = 3 : 1.
The ratio of the base areas of these pyramids is given by:
Ratio = Base area of pyramid A : Base area of pyramid B
Ratio = (3a)² : a²
Ratio = 9a : a
Ratio = 9 : 1.
The ratio of the volumes of these pyramids is given by:
Ratio = Volume of pyramid A : Volume of pyramid B
Ratio = (3l × 3w × 3h)/3 : (l × w × h)/3
Ratio = 27 : 1.
