X^2=4x-15 solve with Quadratic formula

Mathematics
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x=2+i\sqrt{11}

x=2-i\sqrt{11}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x^{2} =4x-15 -------> x^{2}-4x+15=0

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

x^{2}-4x+15=0

so

a=1\\b=-4\\c=15

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-(-4)(+/-)\sqrt{-4^{2}-4(1)(15)}} {2(1)}

x=\frac{4(+/-)\sqrt{16-60}} {2}

Remember that

i=\sqrt{-1}

x=\frac{4(+/-)\sqrt{-44}} {2}

x=\frac{4(+/-)2i\sqrt{11}} {2}

x=\frac{4(+)2i\sqrt{11}}{2}=2+i\sqrt{11}

x=\frac{4(-)2i\sqrt{11}}{2}=2-i\sqrt{11}

To reduce 16 ounces of a 25% solution of antiseptic to a 10% solution, how much distilled water should a nurse add?
yan [13]

Answer:

24 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's a more intuitive approach to use here.

You know that your initial solution has a percent concentration, presumably volume by volume, of  

25

%

. This means that any volume of this solution contains  

1

part solute and  

3

parts solvent.

The target solution must have a concentration of  

10

%

, which means that any volume of this solution will contain  

1

part of solute and  

9

parts solvent.

Your starting solution has a volume of  

16

ounces, or  

4

parts, each with a volume of  

4

ounces.

In order to get to a solution that has a total of  

10

parts, you must add  

6

parts of solvent to the initial solution. Since we know that

1 part  

=

4 ounces

it follows that you must add

6

parts

⋅

4 ounces

1

part solvent

=

24 ounces

of distilled water, which is your solvent, to the initial solution.

The target solution will contain  

1

part solute and  

9

parts distilled water for a total of  

10

parts of solution, and hence have a percent concentration of  

10

%

.

I really need your help, but I don't get any.
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x < -12, so x+12 < 0

| x-(-12) | = | x+12 | = -x-12

Joseph has started completing the square on the equation 3x2 - 7x + 12 = 0. He has worked to the point where he has the expressi
tresset_1 [31]
3x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0 ....subtract 12 from both sides
3x^2 - 7x = -12 ....divide both sides by 3 to get x^2 by itself
x^2 - 7/3x = -4

His work is not accurate because he divided the second term by 4 instead of 3.
