Quadratic formula is x = -b+ or- sq rt b^2-4ac / 2a
a=2 b=5 c=-3
-5 +or- sqrt 5^2-4(2)(-3) / 2(2)
-5 +or- sqrt 49/ 4
-5 + 7 /4 = 2/4 = 1/2
-5 - 7 /4 = -12/4 = -3
Factoring a*c is 2*-3 =-6
Factors of -6 that add to 5 are 6 and -1
Split 5x into +6x-1x
2x^2+6x-1x-3 and group
2x(x+3)-1(x+3)
(x+3)(2x-1)=0
x+3=0 gives x=-3
2x-1=0 gives x=1/2
B. triangle ABC is isosceles. The angles add up 180 degrees.
Answer:
The second one is correct.
Answer:
60 penguins
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find out how many times 9, the number of polar bears for every 20 penguins, was multiplied by, so that we can multiply 20 penguins by the same amount.
27/9 = 3
20*3 = 60
