Mathematics

ycow [4]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A, 1,2

Step-by-step explanation:

we translate it first into language of math

we use n for the number

n² = 3n - 2

then, do some algebra things

n² - 3n + 2 = 0

then factorize it

(n - 2)(n - 1) = 0

first n

n - 2 = 0

n = 2

2nd n

n - 1 = 0

n = 1

so n can be 1 or 2

2.7 is greater than equal to b + 5? Solve
Semenov [28]
The answer:   - 2.3 ≥ b ; which does not correspond with any of the answer choices; but most closely corresponds with: "Answer choice: [B]: b > -2.3 ." 
_____________
Explanation:
_________________
Assuming we have:
_______________________
2.7 is greater than <u><em>or</em></u> equal to "(b + 5)"; 
_______________________________
We would write:
_________________
→ 2.7 ≥  b + 5  ;
_________________
→ Subtract "5" from EACH side:
_________________
→ 2.7 − 5  ≥  b + 5 − 5

→ - 2.3 ≥ b ; which does not correspond with any of the answer choices; but most closely corresponds with: "Answer choice: [B]: b > -2.3 ."
