Answer:
x equals 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-4 ± 2√6
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewritten in standard quadratic form, x^2+8x-2=18 becomes x^2 + 8x - 20 = 0.
Here the quadratic coefficients are a = 1, b = 8 and c = -20 and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 8^2 - 4(1)(-20), or 96.
Because the discriminant is positive, we know that this quadratic has two different real roots. These roots are:
-b ± √(b² - 4ac)
x = -------------------------
2a
which in this case comes out to:
-8 ± √96 -8 ± 4√6
x = ------------------ = ------------------- = -4 ± 2√6

Answer:
K+T=20
$9K + $6T = $168
K is the Kentucky blue grass in pounds
T is the Tall fescue in pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start with the first equation. We don't know the exact amounts of each but we know that there was a total of 20 pounds, and there were 2 types of grass seeds, so we can get that the amount of pounds of Kentucky blue grass(K) and the pounds of Tal Fescue(T) has a sum of 20.
K + T = 20
For the second equation we know that there is a sum of $168 so we'll start with that. Then, we know he paid $9 per pound of K so $9* the value of K is the amount paid for Kentucky blue grass total. This can be represented as 9K. We do the same for T, 6T. Since the sum of the cost of $9T and $6K must be $168 we can write this as:
$9K + $6T = $168
Estimating the number of internet users in Europe by multiplying the ratio with the whole internet users
users in Europe = 9/40 × 2.1 billion
users in Europe = 9/40 × 2,100 million
users in Europe = (9 × 2,100)/40 million
users in Europe = 18,900/40 million
users in Europe = 472.5 million
The number of internet users in Europe is approximately 472.5 million at this time
