They both run 75, because 150 divided by 2 equals 75

150 yrs because the age has nothing to do with it

Write a quadratic equation with the given roots. Write the equation in the form of ax^2+bx+c=0 where a b and c are integers

Bas_tet [7]

You haven't provided the required roots, but I can tell you how to do this kind of exercises in general.

If the $x^2$ coefficient is 1, i.e. the equation is written like $x^2+bx+c=0$ , then you can say the following about the coefficients b and c:

$b$ is the opposite of the sum of the roots
$c$ is the multiplication of the roots.

So, for example, if we want an equation whose roots are 4 and -2, we have:

$4+(-2) = 4-2 = 2 \implies b = -2$
$4 \cdot (-2) = -8 \implies c = -8$

So, the equation is $x^2-2x-8=0$

If your roots are rational, you can work like this: suppose you want an equation with roots 3/4 and 1/2. You have:

$\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{5}{4} \implies b = -\dfrac{5}{4}$
$\dfrac{3}{4} \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{8} \implies c = \dfrac{3}{8}$

And so the equation is

$x^2 - \dfrac{5}{4} + \dfrac{3}{8} = 0$

In order to have integer coefficients, you can multiply both sides of the equation by 8:

$8x^2 - 10 + 3 = 0$

(X-3)(x+2)=0 find the zeros

Ivanshal [37]

Answer: Min = (0.5, −6.25)

Step-by-step explanation: Standard form:

x2 − x − 6 = 0

Factorization:

(x + 2)(x − 3) = 0

Solutions based on factorization:

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x1 = −2

x − 3 = 0 ⇒ x2 = 3
