Answer:

18 female horses.

Step-by-step explanation:

12 / 2 = x / 3

2x = 3*12 = 36

x = 18.

Rhett is solving the quadratic equation 0= x2 – 2x – 3 using the quadratic formula. Which shows the correct substitution of the
Artemon [7]

Answer:

StartFraction 2 plus or minus StartRoot (negative 2) squared minus 4(1)(negative 3) EndRoot Over 2(1) EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

General quadratic equation: ax^2 + bx + c

where a is the coefficient of the quadratic term, b is the coefficient of the linear term and c is the independent term. Here the equation is: x^2 – 2x – 3, so a = 1, b = -2 and c = -3

Quadratic formula:

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4(a)(c)}}{2(a)}

Replacing

x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{(-2)^2-4(1)(-3)}}{2(1)}
