X= √(54-3x)
square both sides:
x^2=54-3x
bring everything to the left:
x^2 + 3x - 54= 0
solve using quadratic formula:
x= (-3 +/- √(9- 4(-54)))/2=
(-3+/- √(9+216))/2=
(-3 +/- √225/2=
(-3 +/- 15)/2=
two options:
1) x= (-3+15)/2= 12/2=6
2) x= (-3-13)/2= -18/2= -9

Solve Fast Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok thanks, Bye (2x−5)^2−.5x<(2x−1)(2x+1)−15

Andrews [41]

Keep these rules in mind:

(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
(a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²
(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

Firstly, solve the exponent and multiplication:

$4x^2-20x+25-0.5x$

Next, combine like terms:

$4x^2-20.5x+25$

Next, subtract 4x² on both sides:

$-20.5x+25$

Next, subtract 25 on both sides:

$-20.5x$

Lastly, divide both sides by -20.5. And since you are dividing by a negative, flip the inequality sign:

$x>2$

Your answer is x > 2.

Determine the type and number of solutions of 4x^2-5x+1=0.

Arlecino [84]

4x² - 5x + 1 = 0
a = 4; b = - 5, c = 1
Δ = b² - 4.a.c
Δ = (-5)² - 4.4.1
Δ = 25 - 16
Δ = 9

x = - b ± √Δ / 2.a
$x = \frac{-5\± \sqrt{9} }{2*4}$
$x = \frac{-5\±3}{8}$
$x' = \frac{-5-3}{8} = \frac{-8}{8} = -1$
$x' = \frac{-5+3}{8} = \frac{-2}{8} (\div2) = \frac{-1}{4}$

A. Two real solutions (x' = -1 and x'' = -1/4)
