How many baseballs equal one pineapple?

Mathematics

Let a be an apple, b be a baseball, p be a pineapple and s be a shoe.

Then, from the balance, we model these equations:

p + b = s     ----- (1)

2s = 4a

Divide both sides by 2.

s = 2a

Substitute in (1), we get,

p + b = 2a   ----- (2)

Also,

p = a + b   -----  (3)

Substitute the above in (2), we get,

(a + b) + b = 2a

a + 2b = 2a

Subtract a from both sides.

a = 2b

Substitute in (3), we get,

p = 2b + b = 3b

Hence, 3 baseballs equal one pineapple.

How many solutions does x²+3x=3 have?
aev [14]

Answer:

2 (real) solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic always has two solutions, whether they are real or complex.

Sometimes the solution is complex, involving complex numbers (2 complex), sometimes they are real and distinct (2 real), and sometimes they are real and coincident (still two real, but they are the same).

In the case of

x^2+3x = 3, or

x² + 3x -3 = 0

we apply the quadratic formula to get

x =  (-3 +/- sqrt(3^2+4(1)(3))/2

to give the two solutions

{(sqrt(21)-3)/2, -(sqrt(21)+3)/2,}

both of which are real.
