Answer:

x_1=\frac{3(2+i\sqrt{6})}{10}

x_2=\frac{3(2-i\sqrt{6})}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Quadratic formula:

x=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

You can identify that, in this case:

a=-10\\b=12\\c=-9

Now you need to substitute these values into the formula:

x=\frac{-12\±\sqrt{12^2-4(-10)(-9)}}{2(-10)}

x=\frac{-12\±\sqrt{-216}}{-20}

Remember that:

i=\sqrt{-1}

Therefore,rewriting and simplifying, you get:

x=\frac{-12\±6i\sqrt{6}}{-20}

x=\frac{-6(2\±i\sqrt{6})}{-2(10)}

x=\frac{3(2\±i\sqrt{6})}{10}

Then, you get the following roots:

x_1=\frac{3(2+i\sqrt{6})}{10}

x_2=\frac{3(2-i\sqrt{6})}{10}

Answer:

x = 3[2 + i√-6]/10 or x = 3[2 - i√-6]/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Solution of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0

x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

<u>To find the solution</u>

It is given that,

-10x² + 12x - 9 = 0

here a = -10, b = 12 and c = -9

x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

  = [-12 ± √(12² - 4* -10 * -9)]/2 * -10

 = [-12 ± √(144 - 360)]/-20

 =[12 ± √-216]/20

 = [12 ± i6√-6]/20

 =  [6 ± i3√-6]/10

 = 3[2 ± i√-6]/10

x = 3[2 + i√-6]/10 or x = 3[2 - i√-6]/10

Rob is saving to buy a new MP3 player. For every $11 he earns babysitting, he saves $6. On Saturday, Rob earned $44 babysitting.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Rob saved $24 on Saturday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rob is saving to buy a new MP3 player.

Money earned in baby sitting = $11

Money saved =$6

First we will find the Percentage of amount he saved.

Percentage of amount he saved can calculated by Amount saved divided by total money earned and then multiplying by 100.

framing in equation form we get;

Percentage of amount he saved = \frac{6}{11} \times 100 \approx 54.55\%

Now Given:

Money earned in babysitting on Saturday = $44

We need to find the Money he saved on Saturday.

Money Saved can be calculated by Percentage of amount he saved multiplying by Money earned in babysitting on Saturday and then divided by 100.

framing in equation form we get;

Money Saved on Saturday = \frac{54.55}{100}\times 44 = \$24

Hence Rob saved $24 on Saturday.
