<em>Step #1: </em>
Make sure the equation is in the form of [ Ax² + Bx + C = 0 ].
Yours is already in that form.
A = 1
B = 2
C = -2
<em>Step #2:</em>
The 'discriminant' for that equation is [ B² - 4 A C ].
That's all there is to it, but it can tell you a lot about the roots of the equation.
-- If the discriminant is zero, then the left side of the equation is a perfect square,
and both roots are equal.
-- If the discriminant is greater than zero, the the roots are real and not equal.
-- If the discriminant is less than zero, then the roots are complex numbers.
The discriminant of your equation is [ B² - 4 A C ] = 2² - 4(1)(-2) = 4 + 8 = 12
Your equation has two real, unequal roots.
We assume all money is spent on new lighting. Since they currently have $160 and need $400 we can subtract what they currently have from what they need.
$400-$160 = $240
Since we know the price of the ticket and now know they need $240 we can divide our $240 with the price of each ticket ($3)
$240/$3 = 80
So the drama club has to sell 80 more tickets in order to afford new lighting
Answer:
1.98
Step-by-step explanation:
sin(26) = EF/4.5 -->
.44 = EF/4.5 -->
.44 * 4.5 = EF -->
1.98 = EF
Answer:
Ellie can make eight stacks of quarters with four quarters in each stack
Step-by-step explanation:
At the beining, he has 76
that is at x=0
y=mx+76
find m
given
when x=2, y=100
find m
100=2m+76
minus 76 both sides
24=2m
divide both sides by 2
12=m
the equatin is
y=12x+76
