Answer:
31
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 5x - 3 = 0
with a = 1, b = 5, c= - 3 , then
sum of roots x₁ + x₂ = - = -
= - 5
product of roots = =
= - 3
Now
(x₁ + x₂)² = x₁² + 2x₁x₂ + x₂² , that is
(- 5)² = x₁² + 2(- 3) + x₂²
25 = x₁² - 6 + x₂² ( add 6 to both sides ), then
x₁² + x₂² = 31
Let
x---------> <span>quantity (ton) of vegetables sold the first day
</span>y---------> quantity (ton) of vegetables sold the second day
z---------> quantity (ton) of vegetables sold the third day
we know that
x=y-3---------> equation 1
z=(5/9)*(x+y)------> equation 2
x+y+z=98-----> equation 3
substitute equation 2 in equation 3
x+y+[(5/9)*(x+y)]=98----> multiply by 9----> 9x+9y+5x+5y=882
14x+14y=882-----> equation 4
to resolve the equations system formed by
x=y-3
14x+14y=882
using a graph tool
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=30
y=33
x+y+z=98----> z=98-(x+y)----> z=98-63---> 35
the answer is
vegetables sold the first day----> 30 ton
vegetables sold the second day----> 33 ton
vegetables sold the third day------> 35 ton
