Answer:

x= -1, -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/4x2+5/2x+21/4=3

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

1/4x2+5/2x+21/4−3=3−3

1/4x2+5/2x+9/4=0

For this equation: a=0.25, b=2.5, c=2.25

0.25x2+2.5x+2.25=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=0.25, b=2.5, c=2.25.

x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a

x=−(2.5)±√(2.5)2−4(0.25)(2.25)/2(0.25)

x=−2.5±√4/0.5

x=−1,−9

Of the 8 students in the chess club, three will represent the club at an upcoming competition. How many different 3-person teams
xz_007 [3.2K]
I think that this is a combination problem. From the given, the 8 students are taken 3 at a time. This can be solved through using the formula of combination which is C(n,r) = n!/(n-r)!r!. In this case, n is 8 while r is 3. Hence, upon substitution of the values, we have

C(8,3) = 8!/(8-3)!3!
C(8,3) = 56

There are 56 3-person teams that can be formed from the 8 students.
