How to solve 3p^2=-2p+4

Mathematics
1 answer:
harkovskaia [24]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3p2 + -2p = 4

Reorder the terms:

-2p + 3p2 = 4

Solving

-2p + 3p2 = 4

Solving for variable 'p'.

Reorder the terms:

-4 + -2p + 3p2 = 4 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0

-4 + -2p + 3p2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by

3 the coefficient of the squared term:

Divide each side by '3'.

-1.333333333 + -0.6666666667p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.333333333' to each side of the equation.

-1.333333333 + -0.6666666667p + 1.333333333 + p2 = 0 + 1.333333333

Reorder the terms:

-1.333333333 + 1.333333333 + -0.6666666667p + p2 = 0 + 1.333333333

Combine like terms: -1.333333333 + 1.333333333 = 0.000000000

0.000000000 + -0.6666666667p + p2 = 0 + 1.333333333

-0.6666666667p + p2 = 0 + 1.333333333

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.333333333 = 1.333333333

-0.6666666667p + p2 = 1.333333333

The p term is -0.6666666667p.  Take half its coefficient (-0.3333333334).

Square it (0.1111111112) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.1111111112' to each side of the equation.

-0.6666666667p + 0.1111111112 + p2 = 1.333333333 + 0.1111111112

Reorder the terms:

0.1111111112 + -0.6666666667p + p2 = 1.333333333 + 0.1111111112

Combine like terms: 1.333333333 + 0.1111111112 = 1.4444444442

0.1111111112 + -0.6666666667p + p2 = 1.4444444442

Factor a perfect square on the left side:

(p + -0.3333333334)(p + -0.3333333334) = 1.4444444442

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.201850425

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting

(p + -0.3333333334) equal to 1.201850425 and -1.201850425.

Subproblem 1

p + -0.3333333334 = 1.201850425

Simplifying

p + -0.3333333334 = 1.201850425

Reorder the terms:

-0.3333333334 + p = 1.201850425

Solving

-0.3333333334 + p = 1.201850425

Solving for variable 'p'.

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '0.3333333334' to each side of the equation.

-0.3333333334 + 0.3333333334 + p = 1.201850425 + 0.3333333334

Combine like terms: -0.3333333334 + 0.3333333334 = 0.0000000000

0.0000000000 + p = 1.201850425 + 0.3333333334

p = 1.201850425 + 0.3333333334

Combine like terms: 1.201850425 + 0.3333333334 = 1.5351837584

p = 1.5351837584

Simplifying

p = 1.5351837584

Subproblem 2

p + -0.3333333334 = -1.201850425

Simplifying

p + -0.3333333334 = -1.201850425

Reorder the terms:

-0.3333333334 + p = -1.201850425

Solving

-0.3333333334 + p = -1.201850425

Solving for variable 'p'.

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '0.3333333334' to each side of the equation.

-0.3333333334 + 0.3333333334 + p = -1.201850425 + 0.3333333334

Combine like terms: -0.3333333334 + 0.3333333334 = 0.0000000000

0.0000000000 + p = -1.201850425 + 0.3333333334

p = -1.201850425 + 0.3333333334

Combine like terms: -1.201850425 + 0.3333333334 = -0.8685170916

p = -0.8685170916

Simplifying

p = -0.8685170916

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions

from the subproblems.

p = {1.5351837584, -0.8685170916}

NISA [10]

Answer:

r = 0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find r we have to square both sides of the equation

0.1 =  \sqrt{r} \\  {0.1}^{2}  =  { \sqrt{r} }^{2}

The *square root* sign cancels out the *squared* sign therefore:

{0.1}^{2}  = r \\ 0.01 = r

The radius of a nitrogen atom is 5.8*10^-11 meters, and the radius of a beryllium atom is 1.12*10^-10 meters. Which atom has a l
Burka [1]
Nitrogen Radius = 5.8 x 10⁻¹¹ m

Beryllium Radius = 1.12 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

Let's find the quotient of N/Be :

(5.8x10⁻¹¹)/(1.12x10⁻¹⁰). But 10⁻¹¹/10⁻¹⁰ = 10⁽⁻¹¹⁺¹⁰⁾ = 10⁻¹ = 1/10 = 0.1

→ (5.8/1.12).(0.1) = 0.58/1.12 = 0.518.

Conclusion: the radius of Be is almost double than the radius of N

Possible my last brainliest if its right question idk may be more but this one is harsh for me
adelina 88 [10]
Correct Solution: He read 1.5 pages per minute.


Error Analysis: You should’ve divided 3 by 2 not 300. There are 300 pages in the book total. This information is irrelevant to the question. Cole reads 3 pages in two minutes. So you divide 3 by to to find out how many pages he reads per minute. 3/2=1.5
