Add 16
x² - 16 = 0
+ 16 +16

x² = 16
Take square root

$\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{16}$

Remember when you take the square root of a perfect square you get two values. +ve and -ve

x = -4
x = 4

because (-4)² = 16
( 4)² = 16

Share 3200 ml of water in the ratio 4:1:3

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

1600 ml, 400 ml, 1200 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratios are: 4:1:3

Let the shares of the given ratios be 4x, x, 3x

$\therefore \: 4x + x + 3x = 3200 \\ \\ \therefore \: 8x = 3200 \\ \\ \therefore \: x= \frac{ 3200}{8} \\ \\ \therefore \: x=400 \\ \\ \implies \\ 4x = 4 \times 400 = 1600 \\ \\ 3x = 3 \times 400 = 1200 \\ \\$
